EB. 137: What REALLY Causes Glycation (Is Sugar Really the Problem?)

1d ago 55:59

MP3•Episode home

In this episode we discuss:

Why glucose and fructose are not the primary drivers of AGE formation
Whether blood sugar spikes cause glycation
How fats and ketones can cause glycation
What’s really responsible for glycation in type 2 diabetes
Whether fructose causes more glycation than glucose
