How Your Blood Sugar and Food Choices Harm Your Body: AGEs
Description
This week, Dr. Kahn introduces a new sponsor, igennus.com, with a 20% off discount using code DrKahn. He and Mrs. Kahn have been enjoying their products, especially the vegan collagen powder.
In the mini-topics, Dr. Kahn touches on how the health of parents influences their children, the increasing prevalence of atrial fibrillation, and the new sleep apnea monitoring feature on the Apple Watch 10. He also discusses the benefits of raw vegetables, the role of physical activity in longevity, and the nutritional value of basil seeds.
The main focus is on advanced glycation end products, or AGEs—what they are, how we're exposed to them, and the damage they cause. A new study highlights how elevated levels, even in young people, can negatively impact arterial health. Once again, plant-based diets prove to be a powerful tool for wellness.
