Glycation

Did you know that glycation, a natural process accelerated by sugar and UV exposure, can affect your skin's youthful glow? Glycation is a chemical reaction that occurs when sugars in our bloodstream bind to proteins, forming advanced glycation end products (AGEs). A major factor contributing to early aging is elevated blood sugar levels. When blood sugar spikes, free radicals go on a rampage, promoting premature aging throughout your entire body.
