GLYCATION WHAT'S NEW?

AGING, GLYCATION AND DIETARY FATS: coincidence or not?

A diet rich in saturated fatty acids would be associated with a poor level of glycation.

We know that sugars are the fuel of glycation and lead by this mechanism to premature aging and age-related diseases.

Rather unexpectedly, no fewer than 6 clinical studies agree that dietary fat also appears to affect glycation levels (1). Thus, in adults or the elderly, with or without chronic diseases, a Mediterranean-type diet (rich in unsaturated fatty acids) and low in dietary AGEs is significantly associated with a good level of glycation. Conversely, a diet rich in saturated fatty acids and dietary AGEs is significantly associated with a high level of glycation. The respective effects of these diets on AGE receptors confirm this correlation.

Whether or not it’s just a correlation is unknown, but the Mediterranean-type diet, already widely known to be associated with good longevity, is also emerging as a good way to
