Sugar + Protein = AGEs - Advanced Glycation End products.
Fat + Sugar = AGEs
Glycation is a nonenzymatic chemical reaction whereby sulfhydryl protein linkages are replaced by glucose, causing impairment in normal cellular and tissue functions. - (M. Lima, J.W. Baynes, in Encyclopedia of Biological Chemistry (Second Edition), 2013 )
AGEs form especially if consumed with refined carbohydrates (so according to the data, the more easily absorbable ones, just the ones in RP type of diet). And also they form more intensely if you heat the products
AGEs burden on the body causes:
accelerated aging, wrinkles and poor quality skin, macular degeneration, neurodegenerative diseases [Alzheimers & Parkinsons] , due to plaque forming in the brain, hinder neuron communication,
"Creates massive oxidation in the body. Rusts your body inside out. Makes proteins sticky , brittle & inflammed. Irreversible cellular damage."

This Bioenergetic type of diet, that RP suggests, in terms of this combination sounds quite dangerous. Carb:Protein ratio is recommended 2:1.
OK. So what's the real deal about glycation and AGEs? What is the bioenergetic perspective on it? How can you naturally prevent glycation, still eating carbs +fats/protein?
I found some resources:
helpful nutrients: vitamin C, benfotiamine, vit B6, phytochemicals in fruits/veggies [antioxidants, polyphenols] , e.g. orange naringenin & others. Also it was mentioned alpha-lipoic-acid.
top herbs to counter-act glycation in the body - ANTI GLYCATION EFFECT - :
*(% glycation blocking effectiveness) - - - Anise - 88% ; Cinnamon -85 % ; Allspice - 81% ; Clove -79 %; Oregano - very effective
my hypothesis what should also be helpful:
aspirin to lower inflammatory reactions, coffee's antioxidants & cacao too, vitamin E should be helpful for sure, exercise ( should stimulate protein synthesis and help clear/recycle damaged protein structures) ; fasting (activates autophagy which helps to cleanse these negatively altered protein structures) - the last two help to reverse the existing effect. More importantly is though, how to not create glycation and AGEs if we're consuming Bioenergetic type of a diet... Food for thought !!!
