as a neurotransmitter and is a powerful inhibitor of a process called
glycation, whereby sugars and PUFA bind up with proteins and produce
advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which are believed to contribute to the adverse effects of aging.

advanced glycation end products (AGEs).
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs): When proteins or fats are glycated
as a result of exposure to sugar, they can be an influencing factor for aging, including the development of degenerative diseases such
as diabetes, Alzheimer's, heart disease, and chronic kidney disease.
Eating too many wheat products such
as bread, bagels, muffins, cereal, crackers, etc increases compounds in your body called
Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs).
Our diets are full of foods that produce
advanced glycation end products such
as barbequed or broiled meats, fried foods, foods cooked at high temperatures and foods that contain processed sugars.
When food is browned or caramelized
as part of the Maillard reaction, reducing sugars spontaneously react with lipids, nucleic acids, and aminopeptides, creating
advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in a process that generates free radicals, inflammation, and ensuing intestinal permeability (Vlassara & Uribarri, 2004; Bengmark, 2007).
They're called
advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and they're linked to diseases such
as arthritis, heart disease, and diabetes.

advanced glycation reactions, which appear to be the main culprit in skin aging, through collagen cross linking (
as well
as arterial stiffness, vision deteriation, really the whole gamut of aging disorders).

as a calorie source: it is chemically reactive, reacting with proteins to form
advanced glycation end products (called AGEs) that disrupt normal bodily functions.

as markers of disease progression in both disorders.
Sometimes, however — particularly
as we age, and when we consume too many sugary or high - glycemic foods — these sugars react with proteins and fats in an abnormal way, producing harmful molecules called «
advanced glycation endproducts (conveniently acronymned: AGEs).»
For example,
advanced glycation end products and cholesterol oxides (both of which promote the development of atherosclerosis) are formed during cooking and processing of foods such
as beef and dairy products.
As a bonus, olive leaf extract protects against the damage of high blood sugar — against
advanced glycation end products (AGEs), free radicals which form when elevated blood glucose levels react with proteins and run wild.
The bulk of the age - related tissue damage classified
as «
glycation end - products» (or «
advanced glycation end - products,» AGE) is produced by decomposition of the polyunsaturated fats, rather than by sugars, and this would be minimized by the protective oxidation of glucose to carbon dioxide.»
