动物研究证据表明，血糖水平升高与记忆力和注意力的改善有关。尽管之前的研究发现服用葡萄糖可以促进人类记忆，但注意力措施却在很大程度上被忽视了。因此，研究了葡萄糖饮料或安慰剂对快速信息处理任务和斯特鲁普任务的影响。参加快速信息处理任务的人的反应时间在基线期间和饮用葡萄糖后（如果血糖值较高）都更快。在斯特鲁普任务中，如果在测试之前血糖值增加，则执行认知要求最高的子测试的能力会选择性地增强。如果喝了葡萄糖饮料，从单词列表中回忆单词的能力会更强，尽管首要性和新近性没有受到不同的影响。人们讨论了较高水平的脑葡萄糖与更好的记忆力和注意力相关的可能性。
There is evidence from animal studies that increased blood glucose levels are associated with im proved memory and attention. Although previous studies have found human memory to be facilitated by the administration of glucose, attentional measures have been largely ignored. Therefore the impact of a glucose drink, or a placebo, on the Rapid Information Processing Task and the Stroop Task was examined. The reaction times of those taking the Rapid Information Processing Task were faster both during the baseline period and after a glucose drink if the blood glucose values were high. With the Stroop task the ability to perform the most cognitively demanding sub-test was selectively enhanced if blood glucose values were increasing prior to starling the test. The ability to recall words from a word list was greater ifa glucose drink had been consumed, although primacy and recency were not differentially influenced. The possibility is discussed that higher levels of brain glucose are associated with better memory and attention.
