Fast Food Can Make You Dumb

Oxford university researches have found that consuming lot of burgers, kebabs, chips and other high fat foods can make a person less intelligent. The test was done on the rat and the result showed that the high fat foods take about 10 days to damage the short term memory and have a negative effect on the mental capacity. This also reduces the ability to exercise.

The result has further said that the things we eat will have a significant effect on the performance of our body. The rats that were given the high calorie foods were found to be growing larger and they heart started to work harder.
When the scientist analyzed the reason for the upcoming problem they found that there was a increase in the uncoupling protein 3. This was the main reason why the muscle used less oxygen.
