How Sugar Causes Skin Ageing
Processed sugar has been identified as a major culprit in premature skin ageing.
This is largely due to a process called glycation. But what exactly is glycation? When you consume sugar, it can bind to important proteins in your skin like collagen and elastin—the very things that keep your skin looking firm and youthful.
Over time, these sugars damage the proteins, making them less able to support the structure of your skin.
