Leisure-time physical activity predicts levels of advanced glycation end-products in older women: A 15-year follow up from the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study.
Abstract
Physical activity might be able to delay the aging process by reducing levels of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). However, the influence of physical activity on levels of AGEs remains unclear. We investigated the associations between leisure time physical activity (LTPA) in late midlife and change in LTPA during a 15-year follow up on the levels of AGEs in old age.

Research summary
Leisure-time physical activity in late midlife is associated with levels of advanced glycation end-products in older women. This study explores a potential link between lifestyle factors and biological markers of aging, contributing to the understanding of how physical activity may influence aging processes.
