1．When it comes to materials to do good to our body，it must be mentioned that there are all sorts of foods to everyone's taste.Some foods are known to have a completely ruined effect on your brain function，and nutritionists advise us not to consume them too much in order to limit their negative impacts.
Here are the top five foods that kill your intelligence.
1.Sugar
Sugar and sugary products are bad not only for your waistline，but for your brain function as well.Long-term consumption of sugar can create a lot of neurological（神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的） problems，and it can also do harm to your memory.On the other hand，sugar can also bring damage to your ability to learn.So avoid the products.
2.Alcohol
Alcohol is known to harm your liver（肝）in long run，and it also causes what is known as "brain fog"，a feeling of mental confusion.It acts like a cloud that impacts your ability to think clearly，as well as your memory.Have you ever noticed that you cannot remember common items' names？This might be influenced by high alcohol intake，which impacts the balance of the brain.
3.Junk Food
A recent study has revealed that junk food can change the chemicals in the brain，thus leading symptoms associated with depression and anxiety.Besides，foods that are high in fat can also produce some symptoms that are similar to the signs of "miss" when you stop consuming them.These foods affect the production of dopamine（多巴胺），an important chemical that promotes happiness and an overall feeling of well-being.
4.Very Salty Foods
Everybody knows that salty foods affect your blood pressure and they are very hard on your heart.However，as research suggests，foods that contain high amounts of salt can affect your learning function and make your ability to think imperfect.Otherwise stated，salty foods affect your intelligence！As a matter of fact，the consumption of salty foods has been shown to have the same effect as taking drugs，as it can cause uncomfortable symptoms and hunger for salty foods.
5.Foods with Processed Proteins（蛋白質(zhì)）
Meat is the richest source of high-quality protein，but avoid overly processed proteins such as hot dogs，sausages and so on.Unlike the natural proteins that help your body protect the nervous system，processed proteins do exactly the opposite.Better choose natural products，such as fish，dairy products，and seeds as these are natural，high-quality protein sources.
