Episode notes
Dark Spots Signal Internal Fibrosis
- Dark spots on skin often signal systemic tissue fibrosis, not just sun damage.
- Seeing them suggests similar stiffening may be occurring in heart, lungs, and brain.
Glycation Drives Skin And Organ Aging
- Glycation forms AGEs when sugars bind proteins, especially with heat.
- AGEs break down collagen and stiffen tissues, accelerating visible and internal aging.
Avoid High-Heat Cooking And Charred Foods
- Avoid high-heat cooking like charring, grilling, and toasting to reduce dietary AGEs.
- Limit sweet marinades, charred meats, and processed protein bars which increase AGE intake.
