Aging is not driven by time alone, it is also influenced by biochemical processes occurring at the cellular level.
Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) form when excess glucose binds to proteins and lipids, altering their structure and function. Over time, AGE accumulation contributes to tissue stiffness, oxidative stress, vascular dysfunction, and accelerated biological aging, particularly in metabolic disorders.
Understanding glycation shifts the focus from cosmetic aging to metabolic regulation and long-term systemic health.
