Brief description Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs) are formed when sugars and proteins stick together, resulting in the brown colour, caramel flavour and sticky surface of heated foods. AGEs in food can be absorbed into our bodies and damage body tissues. Obese women who struggle to become pregnant have an increased build-up of AGEs in their uterus, which inhibits their ability to conceive. I will investigate whether a low-AGE diet can improve fertility outcomes in obese women who are unable to get pregnant.
