There are foods that can have a negative impact on memory, cognitive processes, and emotional health. High glycemic index foods can have a detrimental impact on the brain resulting in emotional health impairment and increased risk of depression. A 2015 study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that post-menopausal women who eat foods with a high glycemic index like white bread, rice, cornflakes, and potatoes have a higher incidence of new onset depression. The more lactose, fiber, fruit, and vegetables participants ate the less likely they were to get depressed.
