Cut Out Sugar
While it’s perfectly fine to indulge in occasional treats like birthday cake or a donut, it’s important to be mindful that regularly consuming excessive amounts of sugar can accelerate the process of premature aging.
Dr. Ajay Kumar Ajmani elaborates on the effects: “Elevated sugar levels contribute to increased protein glycation, forming advanced glycation end products that can impair both function and structure, hastening the aging process.” It’s important to differentiate between natural sugars found in fruits, which are generally harmless, and processed sugars, which pose significant health concerns.
