That's not going to help in our mashing procedure.

这对我们的过程没有帮助。

Yes, there are some studies that show positive effects in things like reducing hemoglobin A1C, reducing blood pressure, reducing body mass index.

是的，一些研究表明，这种做法在降低血红蛋白（A1C）、降低血压和降低体重指数方面有积极效果。

Glycation is a process where sugar in the bloodstream mucks onto proteins, creating something called advanced glycation end products or AGEs for short.

，就是血黏在蛋白质上，这过程我们称终产（AGEs）。

These are called ages advanced glycations something because the sugar combines with proteins in the bloodstream and these are bad things.

这些被称高级终产，与血液中的蛋白质结合，这些质是有害的。

But the glucose still needs to go somewhere because if it sits in the bloodstream, it will bind to proteins in a damaging process called glycation.

但是，血还是要有地方去放。如果血在血管待太久，它将与蛋白质结合（）。

Where these things become a real problem is in diabetics who have trouble controlling their blood sugar, and end up with a large amount of AGEs.

这个问题会发生在血控制有困难的尿病患者身上，他们的血过高，有过多的终产。

The same thing happens to your skin over time: proteins in your bloodstream get sugar stuck on them and the resulting AGEs damage your skin internally, creating age spots.

这个过程也同样可以在你体内发生：血粘在蛋白质上，这种终产会伤害你，并从内部长出黑斑。

This proportion of glycated hemoglobin doesn't change day to day, so it gives a sense for whether the blood glucose levels have been high over the past 2 to 3 months.

血红蛋白的比例不会每天变，所以它可以说明血水平是否已经持续走高2-3个月。

In December Adnams, a Suffolk brewer, will bottle whisky that has been sitting in casks for three years—the time it takes for the European Union to recognise fermented cereal mash as whisky.

在11月，萨福克的啤酒制造商亚当那姆斯将对储存在木桶有三年之久的威士忌进行瓶装，这三年正是等待欧盟认可发酵谷威士忌的过程。

So that brings us to another type of test that can be done which is the HbA1c test, which tests for the proportion of hemoglobin in red blood cells that has glucose stuck to it - called glycated hemoglobin.

所以另一种可行的检测是HbA1c测试，来测验红细胞中被葡萄黏着的血红蛋白比例；这种血红蛋白也叫作血红蛋白。
