这篇文章比较了三项研究的结果，这三项研究探讨了血糖升高在改善吃早餐的受试者记忆功能方面的作用。研究发现，这些受试者记忆功能的初步改善与血糖浓度有关。在随后的研究中，研究发现，早晨禁食会对回忆单词列表和朗读故事的能力产生不利影响，以及在倒数的情况下回忆项目的能力。不吃早餐并不影响智力测试的表现。结论是，早餐的摄入优先影响了需要记忆方面的任务。在单词列表回忆和倒数时记忆的情况下，与不吃早餐相关的表现下降被补充葡萄糖的饮料的摄入所逆转。尽管早晨禁食也会影响大声朗读故事的回忆能力，但葡萄糖饮料并没有扭转这种下降趋势。吃早餐似乎通过几种机制影响认知，包括血糖升高。
This article compares the findings of three studies that explored the role of increased blood glucose in improving memory function for subjects who ate breakfast. An initial improvement in memory function for these subjects was found to correlate with blood glucose concentrations. In subsequent studies, morning fasting was found to adversely affect the ability to recall a word list and a story read aloud, as well as recall items while counting backwards. Failure to eat breakfast did not affect performance on an intelligence test. It was concluded that breakfast consumption preferentially influences tasks requiring aspects of memory. In the case of both word list recall and memory while counting backwards, the decline in performance associated with not eating breakfast was reversed by the consumption of a glucose-supplemented drink. Although a morning fast also affected the ability to recall a story read aloud, the glucose drink did not reverse this decline. It appears that breakfast consumption influences cognition via several mechanisms, including an increase in blood glucose.
