cooking ourselves to death

Non-PRO English to Polish Medical Medical (general)
Apparantly, we are literally cooking ourselves to death. In cooking, sugars and proteins stick together to form tasty brown crusts like those on French toast. Our metabolisms are a form of low-temperature cooking that causes sticky sugars such as glucose to cross-link with proteins to create advanced glycation end products(AGEs).

zagotowujemy się na śmierć

nieco mniej dowolna wersja

lepiej by może brzmiało: spalamy - bo o spalaniu się mówi przy procesach metabolicznych, ale ten "cooking" powtarza się potem przy "low-temperature", więc spalanie odpada ;)
