Yes, cookies. Those small discs of delectable goodness may be making you a junkie.
Researchers at the University of Bordeaux wrote that cookie ingredients trigger nearly the same response as cocaine, mainly due to the sugar and salt.
According to the study, salt activates the brain's reward centers, which only enhances the normal addictive effects of the cookies, KRON reports.
"Overall, this research has revealed that sugar and sweet reward can not only substitute to addictive drugs, like cocaine, but can even be more rewarding and attractive," the study claims.
As we said, why go on?
