The Low-AGEs Revolution — A Biological Reset Protocol

 

Precision Nutrition: How a Low-AGEs Diet Restored My Skin Barrier

Introduction:

Just as the world is shifting from fuel-based cars to electric, I have transitioned from gas stoves to precision electric heating. By adopting a Low-AGEs (Advanced Glycation End-products) diet, I’ve stabilized my weight and healed chronic eczema. This protocol is designed to minimize internal inflammation and maximize nutrient bioavailability.

The Culinary Algorithm:

1. Dual-Thermal Management: I use an Infrared Ceramic Cooker to simmer Rye, Oats, and Onions. The long-wave infrared ensures a cloud-soft, velvety texture. After 20 minutes, the onions melt into a sweet, emulsified base.

2. Tiered Steaming: An Induction Cooker is used for rapid steaming. Orange pumpkin is steamed for 20 minutes for a buttery finish, while Enoki mushrooms are added only for the final 10 minutes to preserve their crunch.

3. The 3+45 Egg Method: Boiling eggs with water, set to 100 C stir-fry mode, slowly raising the temperature until boiled, once boiled set the timer with 3 minutes, turn off the heat, remove the eggs from hot water, and let them air dry 45-minute Singapore kitchen ambient cooling phase. This avoids the formation of ferrous sulfide (the grey ring) and maintains a creamy yolk.

A Symphony of Senses:

The experience is defined by contrast. While the texture is incredibly soft and soothing, the flavor profile is pungent and savory. The organic sulfur from onions and a hint of garlic powder create a distinctive spicy kick. This is layered with the deep umami of purplish-black seaweed, fresh salmon, and the dominant, toasted aroma of white sesame oil. A dash of organic vinegar ties everything together, balancing the acidity and lowering the glycemic load.

Metabolic & Dermatological Outcomes:

The most profound result is the restoration of my skin. Months of Low-AGEs eating have built a resilient protective layer on my palms, completely curing my eczema. My skin is no longer reactive to detergents—proof that true health begins at the cellular level through the food we choose to consume.
