Low-Carb Diets Can Have Adverse Impact On Cognition Skills
Low-carb dieters showed a gradual decrease on the memory-related tasks compared with the low-calorie dieters. Reaction time for those on the low-carb diet was slower and their visuospatial memory was not as good as those on the low-calorie diet.
However, low-carb dieters actually responded better than low-calorie dieters during the attention vigilance task.
"The data suggest that after a week of severe carbohydrate restriction, memory performance, particularly on difficult tasks, is impaired," Taylor said.
The study appears in the February 2009 edition of the journal Appetite.
