"You are what you eat." When people say that,they mean a healthy diet can improve your
health.But the opposite is also true.
If you are between the ages of 10 and 19，eating too much junk food can harm your body and your brain.Junk food shapes teen brains in ways that impair their ability to think,learn and remember.It can also make it harder to control impulsive（冲动的）behaviors.
Reichelt is a brain and nutrition specialist（专家）at Canada's Western University.She is a part of a group of scientists around the world who have been studying why junk foods harm the teenagers.She and two other rearchers reviewed more than 100 studies,including her own,about how poor food choices can impact teen brains.They described what they learned in the May issue of The Lancet Child and Teenage Health.
Teen brains are not yet fully developed is one of the problems that junk food can influence them.And that actually leads to three problem.First is the teen ability to judge risks and control actions.Second,teen brains get more pleasure than adult brain do from rewarding behaviors.Third,teen brains can be more easily influenced by their environment.This can include any stress they are feelings,any loneliness,anxiety or anger.
They can also be influenced by diet.Together,the all can combine to make junk food both hard to resist（抵抗） and extra bad for teen health.
