Morris from the University of New South Wales said , further research is needed to determine whether treatment of inflammation could improve cognitive deficits or whether exercise can fix the damage.
" These findings suggest that poor diet continuously will have an impact on brain function , " said Morris quoted DW.DE.
Researchers experimented with fatty foods and drinks with high sugar content of the rat . Less than one week , the mice suffered from memory loss .
It is surprising that Australian researchers are reduced cognitive ability occurred even before the rats experienced weight menambahan of eating " junk food " .
" We never thought that this could happen so quickly , " said Margaret Morris of the University of New South Wales , one of the members of the research team .
