Answer to Question 1

The following guidelines can help you decrease AGEs in your diet:
1. Limit cooking of meats at high temperatures.

2. Avoid high-fat foods (whole-milk products and meats).

3. Increase intake of fruits, vegetables, grains, fish, and low-fat milk products.

4. Choose unprocessed over processed foods by cooking fresh foods from scratch.

5. Eat at home most of the time and avoid prepackaged and fast foods as much as possible.

6. Avoid browning (the process of browning sugars and proteins on food surfaces increases the formation of AGEs).

Answer to Question 2

The basic types of vegetarians are as follows:
1. Vegans eat no animal products.

2. Ovovegetarians allow eggs in their diet.

3. Lactovegetarians consume foods from the milk group.

4. Ovolactovegetarians include egg and milk products in their diet.

5. Semivegetarians do not eat red meat but include fish (pescatarian) and/or poultry, in addition to milk products and eggs, in their diet.
