The very strong and rapid increase in sugar consumption would explain the absence of a self-repairing mechanism to fight against glycation.
Sugar is the fuel of glycation. Its consumption in excess accelerates this glycation, directly responsible for the aging of cells as well as diseases related to aging (1). There is thus a strong correlation between the prevalence of diabetes and sugar consumption.
Fortunately, the body has self-repairing mechanisms to fight against the main causes of aging: the production of Superoxide Dismutase against oxidation, cellular repair of DNA or the pigmentation of the dermis exposed to UV.
Nothing, however, to counter the ravages of glycation. Worse still, the predisposition for glycation seems to be transmitted to future generations by epigenetic means.
Attempted explanation, evolution would not have had time to take glycation into account: The westernization of the food lifestyle has led to a sudden increase in sugar consumption worldwide (multiplied by 10 in a few years in some populations). The body did not follow through, dragging more and more populations into the glycation trap and the whirlwind of accelerated aging.
PS: nearly 400 tonnes of sugars were consumed throughout the world during the 60 seconds required to read this article (source: www.planetoscope.com).

✅ [AGE BREAKER, patented nutritional supplements, based on rosmarinic acid, recognized by aging specialists around the world for their properties to reverse the effects of glycation.]
✅ [Glycation is one of the major causes of aging. Resulting from the fixation of sugars on the proteins constituting the organism, glycation generates toxic compounds that cause cellular aging. Glycation is particularly involved in metabolic disorders, skin aging and cognitive decline.]
