Abstract
This review explores the effects of fructose on the hippocampus: hippocampal function and structure, hippocampal neurogenesis, and hippocampal cognitive function. First, this result confirms that excess fructose intake affects the microstructure of pathways connecting the hippocampus to other brain areas. Fructose has the potential to affect neurogenesis in the hippocampus, and a diet high in fructose can impair learning and memory, leading to cognitive impairment. However, further research is needed to apply animal experiments to humans in the future. The literature review focused on the effects of fructose, but a balanced intake of other nutrients also needed to be considered.
