Advanced Glycation End Products

The receipts behind Chapter 6

A trigger finger, a carpal tunnel, a frozen shoulder, and nobody said the word sugar. In Chapter 6 I explain advanced glycation end products: how glucose bonds permanently to the collagen in your tendons, discs and nerve tunnels, why the stiffness shows up years before anyone says diabetes, and why a released nerve or repaired cuff is a bridge over a river that is still rising.

The book makes the argument. This supplement shows the evidence, claim by claim: the study, who was in it, the number and where it sits in the paper, what it does not show — and the questions to bring to your own physician. It is written to be handed to your doctor.
