Our Research Portfolio

GlycanAge is based on research performed on over 300,000 people. These findings identified that glycans change 7-10 years before the disease is first diagnosed. Glycans also respond to lifestyle interventions within a short timeframe, providing valuable insights.

If you’re interested in including glycans in your research, check out our GlycanAge for Research page to see how we can collaborate.

You can see all of our publications in chronological order below.
