Glycemic index (GI) refers to the speed with which a certain food raises blood glucose levels. The glycaemic index is a scale from 0-100, with pure glucose set to be 100. A food is considered to have a low GI if it is 55 or less; high GI if 70 or more; and mid-range GI if it is 56 to 69. Some foods and drinks actually have a GI much higher than glucose. For example the GI of beer is up to 119 and that of corn flakes is up to 132…
Foods that reverse glycation: cranberry juice polyphenols, skin aging and cellulite
How glycation causes cellulite (and skin aging)
Glycation is the attachment of sugars to proteins and lipids, leading to what are called ‘Advanced Glycation End-products’ (AGEs in shirt). The consequent damage of those proteins/lipids, especially collagen and elastin, leads to inflammation, free radical formation / oxidative damage and fibrosis, all of which accelerate aging…
