Sugary Ceral Good For Memory - Might It Be True?

A research study conducted by Michael Smith, a PhD student at the University of Western Australia reveals "that a bowl of sugary high-GI glycaemic index) cereals may significantly improve (a healthy) adolescents' memory."

"In the study, 37 school students, aged 14-17 years, were put on a popular corn-based cereal (high-GI) or a high fibre bran-based cereal (low-GI).

The students were then asked to recollect a long list of names of tools, fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices and kitchen utensils."

Students who ate the high-GI cereal could recollect an average of 1.52 more words than the ones put on low-GI cereal.
