What is an anti-aging secret that not many people know about? This is not a secret, but it is something a lot of people don't know about. I am sure in the future more people will pay attention to this particular “tip”. You must be wondering, how is sugar connected to aging at all? Here’s how: sugar has been proven to be responsible for the creation of AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) when it binds to proteins. AGEs are key players in skin aging. AGEs don’t just float around in our bodies. We have specific receptors called RAGE that receive them. The activation of these receptors triggers oxidative stress and inflammation. Guess what? We have RAGE receptors in our dermis! AGEs affect the removal of old collagen from the skin; in fact, glycated collagen leads to a decreased transformation of collagen III fibers into collagen I. Decreased collagen turnout is responsible for the loss of elasticity and wrinkles’ formation. Avoiding sugar will help you limit and slow down the glyc
We've all been told not to yawn. But according to new study animals with bigger brains longer the length of their yawns. Therefore, longer the yawn, more intelligent the anim al. Researchers from the State University of New York in the US looked at the videos of 2 9 mammals yawning to calculate the average length of their yawns. The animals had their brain weight already documented in an earlier research When the researchers squeezed the numbers, they realised that brain weight and the number of neurons in the outer layer of the brain called cortex can constantly predict yawn length. For instance, gorillas, horses, walruses and African elephants may have huge sizes but they have shorter yawns than humans because the sizes of their brains are smaller compared with our s T he findings also told us that the length of yawn does not correlate to the size of the body but to the size of the brain, 'Tech Times' reported. The research team led by Andrew Gallup , from the Stat
