Abstract

Dietary strategies that limit protein glycation can help slow aging and prevent age‑related diseases by reducing the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). This study evaluated the antioxidant, antiglycation, and prebiotic potential of postbiotics produced by lactic acid bacteria using Iris albicans extract and its major isoflavonoids as carbon sources. Antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP), prebiotic potential (A

Research summary

The study claims that isoflavonoids from Iris albicans can enhance the anti-aging potential of postbiotics derived from lactic acid bacteria by reducing protein glycation. This research is relevant as it explores dietary strategies aimed at addressing the root causes of aging through the reduction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).
