That depends on which camp you plant your flag. Dr. Ron Rosedale would probably have something to say about that insofar as any overintake of dietary glucose is a bad thing. We simply don't need even moderate amounts of it in our diets, especially for primarily sedentary lifestyles.

His position is that even a small degree of glycosylation contributes to accelerated aging, albeit the degree of which determines how chronic and insidious that damage will actually be.

I tend to agree with his take on the matter. Objectively speaking, especially if you subscribe to the insulin hypothesis of adiposity, there are several "unhealthy" biomarkers that occur as a result of intaking deep-fried twinkies and mountain dew — irrespective of peri-indiscretion nutrition.
