The Sweet and Bitter Truth About Sugar's Impact on Inflammation and Ageing
We know that there are different types of sugars so let's talk about them first
Fructose, a sugar found in fruit and honey, is a monosaccharide, like glucose, whereas table sugar ( sucrose) is a combination of glucose and fructose, making it a disaccharide (meaning two molecules linked together)
High fructose corn syrup (the ones found in soft drinks and processed foods) is a combination of molecules and is dominated by fructose.
When we eat whole fruits, which contain fruit sugar, the water, and the fiber will dilate the blood sugar effect that can occur.
When we combine fructose and glucose, the fructose might not do much to our blood sugar right away, but the glucose stimulates insulin secretion and alerts fat cells to create MORE storage.
The more sugars we eat, the more we tell our bodies to transfer them to fat.
Glycation is when sugar molecules bond to proteins, fats, and amino acids. Advanced glycation end products AGEs, are what cause premature aging of the skin, sogginess, and discolored skin.
If we have a high-carb diet, this will speed up glycation.
