Summary

"All foods contain naturally ocurring toxic substances called AGEs - advanced glycation end products. Studies have shown that a buildup of AGEs increases oxidation and free radicals, hardens tissue, and creates chronic inflammation, leading to a host of illnesses. While many foods contain high AGE levels, many others contain very little. By knowing the best foods to choose and their optimal preparation methods, you can lower your consumption of these harmful substances. The AGE Food Guide is designed to help. This comprehensive guide lists hundreds of common foods and their AGE levels. In an easy-to-follow format, the foods are listed both alphabetically and within categories for quick and easy access." -- p. [4] of cover
