What Are AGEs?

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs for

short) are complex, oxidant compounds created

when simple sugars crosslink with proteins or

lipids through non-enzymatic reaction.

AGEs irreversibly accumulate in

cells and tissues of the body.

Nutritional interventions early in

the accumulation cycle is

important…

…to reduce the speed at which

glycation reactions occur.

But how?

Nutrition.
