- Misfolded proteins accumulate when proteins lose their correct three-dimensional shape, and this accumulation is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases and is implicated in cancer. — Autophagy, Fasting, and Cruciferous Phytonutrients
- Glycation is the chemical bonding of a sugar molecule to a protein, producing a toxic, non-functional compound. — Autophagy, Fasting, and Cruciferous Phytonutrients
- Elevated blood sugar accelerates glycation, and the resulting toxic aggregates are directly linked to neurodegeneration and cancer progression. — Autophagy, Fasting, and Cruciferous Phytonutrients
- The concern with protein damage is the small functional proteins (mostly enzymes) inside cells, not structural proteins like muscle or ligament. — Autophagy, Fasting, and Cruciferous Phytonutrients
