blood brain research memory

Two seemingly contradictory investigations. People with lower blood sugar fared better at memory tests, but is there a direct link between better memory and sugar, or is lower sugar levels indicative of greater dietary awareness, which may accompany better general awareness, including a metacognitive awareness propitious to all cognitive functions, including memory? Then a link to a report suggesting CHOCOLATE is good for the memory! WHat's the answer? Sugar-free chocolate?!
