That's all true, and there is more. There are two kinds of exogenous AGEs: crosslinking and non-crosslinking. Crosslinking AGEs cause permanent damage via irreversible crosslinks. Non-crosslinking AGEs cause temporary damage and inflammation, although this may be an oversimplification, as the immune system has a memory. A list of AGE levels in foods is at https://libera-nutrition.github.io/food-ages/ https://libera-nutrition.github.io/food-ages/ . In addition, there also are endogenous AGEs which form in the body.
