In this insightful episode of The College of Glycation, Dr. Paul Reynolds unpacks how sugar-driven molecular reactions silently erode your strength from the inside out. Glycation—the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs)—crosslinks muscle proteins, stiffens connective tissue, and disrupts insulin signaling, accelerating the loss of muscle mass and power known as sarcopenia.Drawing from current metabolic and clinical research, Dr. Reynolds explains how AGEs impair muscle regeneration, blunt key growth pathways like Akt/mTOR, and fuel inflammation that blocks repair. But it’s not all decline—he outlines practical, science-based strategies to restore resilience through resistance training, nutrient timing, and antioxidant support. Whether you’re aging, active, or simply determined to stay strong, this episode reveals how managing glycation can help preserve your mobility, vitality, and metabolic health for life.
