And so these advanced glycation end products you can get not just from, unfortunately, just from sugar, but you can also get it from other types of foods. If you grill a steak on the grill, that can also be, you know, potentially high levels of advanced glycation end products. So you're talking once again, things that will age you. Margarine has a lot of advanced glycation end products as well.
