Glyconutrients



What are glyconutrients?

How do they work?

What benefits can you get by taking them?

What does your body do with them?

Does your doctor know about them?

Where can you get them? Etc..


I'm going to answer all those questions for you and many more. I'll explain it to you as simple and straight forward as possible. However, if for any reason you still have some questions, please email me here. I'll answer any and all questions as quickly as possible.

I believe in the "common sense approach to life",and that's how I've tried to present everything here to you. The purpose of this site is to help you understand what glyconutrients are and the incredible impact they can have on your health. I urge you to carefully check everything out and see for yourself.

What Are Glyconutrients?


The word "Glyco" literally means sweet.

A "Nutrient" is defined in the dictionary as a source of nourishment, especially an ingredient in a food. So a glyconutrient is literally defined as a "sweet nutrient".

That's because in reality glyconutrients are sugars. But I don't just mean sugar the way we all think of it.To date scientists have discovered over 200 sugars that occur naturally in plants. They have also found out that our bodies only use a handful of them.

There are 8 different sugars that have been identified as essential. Now as far as taste goes, many of these sugars are not "sweet" at all. Nevertheless they are definitely sugars. Their names are as follows:
Glyconutrients
Glucose, mannose, galactose,
xylose, fucose,N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, and sialic acid(N-acetylneuraminic acid or NANA).


glyconutrientsClick on the following link to see the scientific explanation of these sugars as quoted in HarpersBiochemistry which is a standard textbook used by all students studying to become doctors. It's definitely a technical explanation but the point is to show you that glyconutrients definitely have a scientifically proven use by our bodies. 



You can also click on the following link for a more user friendly explanation of thes eeight essential sugars and the roles they play in our bodies.


The scientific term for glyconutrients is "saccharides". All sugars are classified as carbohydrates so keep in mind that the words sugar, carbohydrate, and saccharide are all inter-changeable.

But these are a little different than the carbs you and I might think of. They are known as "long chain carbohydrates". Polysaccharides is the technical term for those that have 20 or more sugars "chained" together.

The scientific and medical communities have long understood the use of saccharides by the body for energy, but now they're finding out that there's more to them then previously thought.


How Do Glyconutrients Work?

Inside your body these sugar molecules (glyconutrients) combine with protein or fats. If it's with protein the end result is called a "glycoprotein". If it's with a fat it's called a "glycolipid". The general term for those two are "glycoconjugates". That makes sense since the word "conjugate" means "to join together". That whole joining process is called "Glycosylation" and as you'll soon find out, it is a vital part of our health.

Glycoconjugates coat the surface of virtually every cell in your body.Scientists still do not know all the functions of this sugary coating. There's definitely a whole lot more for them to learn. In fact most scientists and doctors used to look at the "sugar" part of glycoproteins as a royal pain.

Glyconutrients


But one of the functions of these glycoconjugates has been solved. It has now been proven that this sugary coating on the cell surface is a key method ofcommunication between cells. One cell joins with another and if they both have the right glycoconjugates, they can communicate with each other.

I look at it as both cells need to have the right PIN number or else no messages can be sent or received. Kind of like your ATM card. If you have the wrong PIN number, you can't get any money!


Lack of communication has destroyed millions of relationships, both personal and business. So do you think it's any different inside of your body?The answer is a resounding NO! Your body is constantly communicating with itself and it all starts at the cellular level.

But it's not exactly simple. These sugars and proteins can make up literally unlimited numbers of combinations on your cell surfaces. Although they are ferverishly studying how these sugars work, It is still a mystery to even the most brilliant scientists on earth.

What they do know though is that your body definitely needs and utilizes these sugars. If you don't have them to combine with the proteins or fats, you're not going to get some of those glycoconjugates on the surface of your cells. If your cells are missing some of them, there's going to be problems.

"Glycosylation Errors" have now been recognized as a component of numerous diseases including many types of cancer.

Autoimmune Diseases are the classic example of "miscommunication" within thebody. With those disorders your immune system is actually attacking your body because it doesn't recognize that it shouldn't! This class of diseases is rising at levels unheard of. Many doctors believe that within the next  5 years fully 50% ofthe U.S. population will have an autoimmune disease!

Type 1 Diabetes, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, and Multiple Sclerosis
are some common examples of Autoimmune Diseases. Here are some others:


Examples ofAutoimmune Diseases

Active Chronic Hepatitis Addison's Disease Anti-phospholipid Syndrome
Atopic Allergy Autoimmune Atrophic Gastritis Achlorhydra Autoimmune
Celiac Disease Crohns Disease Cushings Syndrome
Dermatomyositis (Type I) Diabetes Discoid Lupus
Erythematosis Goodpasture's Syndrome Grave's Disease
Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Idiopathic Adrenal Atrophy Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia
Insulin-dependent Diabetes Lambert-Eaton Syndrome Lupoid Hepatitis
Lymphopenia (some cases) Mixed Connective Tissue Disease Multiple Sclerosis
Pemphigoid Pemphigus Vulgaris Pernicious Anema
Phacogenic Uveitis Polyarteritis Nodosa Polyglandular Auto. Syndromes
Primary Biliary Cirrhosis Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Psoriasis
Raynauds Reiter's Syndrome Relapsing Polychondritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis Schmidt's Syndrome Scleroderma - CREST
Sjogren's Syndrome Sympathetic Ophthalmia Systemic Lupus Erythematosis
Takayasu's Arteritis Temporal Arteritis Thyrotoxicosis
Type B Insulin Resistance Ulcerative Colitis Wegener's Granulomatosis

 

Numerous people with autoimmnue diseases have found
improvement in their lives by taking glyconutrients.

Click here to listen to some of their stories right now.



So we know that glyconutrients are used in the vitally important role of cell to cell communication. In my opinion that alone is more than enough reason to take them.

But hold on because there's more...


Glyconutrients, Your Immune System, and Stem Cells

Many people don't understand that over 60% of your immune system is in your colon. That's the reason they say that "Death Begins in the Colon".

Glyconutrientshave been shown to play a critical role by
modulating the immune system
through the colon!


This is vitally important both for an underactive immune system or an overactive one (the case with autoimmune diseases). Ideally we all want to be in the middle where our immune system is neither over nor underworked. Glyconutrients work on different types of immune system cells including T cells. As a result they are believed to enhance both cellular and humoral immunity (immunity based on antibody production).

glyconutrientsGlyconutrientshave also been shown to stimulate NK cells. NK stands for "Natural Killer." Of all the immune system's soldiers, NK cells are definitely the most aggressive. They are your first line of defense against mutant and virus infected cells like Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) or the West Nile virus.

They are lymphocytes with no immunological memory and are part of your innate immune system. NKcells make up about 5 to 16 percent of the total lymphocyte population. Their specific function is to destroy infected and cancerous cells.


NK cells do not kill indiscriminately. They look for a banner flown by normal cells. If the NK cell sees this banner, it receives a signal to spare that cell (more proof of how vital cellular communication really is!).This signal overrides the NK cell's urge to kill. If this banner is absent on the target cell the NK cell proceeds with its attack. It attaches to the target and releases a lethal burst of chemicals that penetrate the cell wall. Fluids begin to leak in and out and eventually the cell explodes.


Obviously these NK cells are vitally important. Just one more reason that everyone on this planet needs glyconutrients in their diet!

There's a whole lot more info out there. I urge you to check out the following as well:

And as if that wasn't enough, there is also growing evidence that glyconutrients stimulate your body's own production of stem cells!

Stem Cells and Glyconutrients

glyconutrientsStem cells have been a hot political issue in the last few years, but forget about that for now. The evidence is there that suggests your body will create it's own stem cells when prompted to do so. What prompts it? Well the link to glyconutrients is certainly a big one! Check it all out for yourself by clicking on the info below.




Now the next logical question is this....

How Does Your Body Get Glyconutrients?

There are only two ways your body can get these sugars into your system;

A) It either makes them itself, or
B) It gets them through your diet.

Now here's where the rubber meets the road! Let's deal with #1 first.

1). Scientists know that the body is "capable" of metabolizing any sugar it needs. The "theory" was that the body used glucose to make whatever "other" sugars it needed so there was honestly no need for us to worry about it. That has begun to be challenged by numerous studies. There is now evidence supporting the notion that your body may actually prefer to receive numerous sugars in their natural state versus having to convert them itself.

See"Metabolism of Dietary Sugars" in the paper titled
"Introduction to Glyconutritionals" atglycoscience.com

But even if it can convert glucose into any other sugar, the body needs numerous things to do that. For anyone to assume that it's a fool proof system is quite a far-fetched statement (at least in my opinion).

First and foremost, converting one sugar to another is an enzymatic process which means numerous enzymes are needed to perform the whole conversion. What happens to people who have in born errors of metabolism? Those are people whose bodies don't have all the necessary enzymes needed, and it can't produce them. While they usually do have numerous health issues, is it possible that numerous diseased people have metabolic problems and don't even know it?

Second, the conversion process requires certain vitamins at different steps. What happens if those needed vitamins are missing? I don't think it's too big of an assumption to say that most people, including you and I, have many days where they don't even come close to getting all the vitamins their bodies require. What happens to our bodies on those days? Does it just "wait" until the vitamins are available at a future time? Do our bodies just stop trying to convert that sugar? Those are interesting questions with no definitive answers.

Last but not least, the entire process requires time and energy. It is a step by step procedure that gets it from point A to point B. While the amount of energy it takes can actually be measured, the truth is that no one really knows what kind of toll that takes on your body.

Is it feasible that while your body is converting one sugar to another, it's using resources that are needed elsewhere, and thus, viruses and diseases are allowed to grow because the body is just "too busy?" That is, of course, just a theory, but it is definitely an interesting one isn't it?


But here'sthe point:

That whole process needs to take place just to convert one sugar into another so that THEN your body can go through another process called "glycosylation" where it combines those sugars with proteins or fats.

Quick question:
Do you think it makes a little more sense for your body to already have those sugar molecules in hand instead of having to expend time, energy, and resources to create them?


As far as I'm concerned it's pretty much a no brainer. Have you ever seen a contractor who made his own nails? No, he buys them pre-made so he can have them at hand to build his house. I know that's an overly simplistic example but it doesn't take a lot of common sense to see the light here.

So how else does your body get these sugars?

2). The only other way for your body to get glyconutrients is through what you eat. That could be in the actual foods or a supplement. But there are multiple problems with us getting them through the food we eat. The main problem is that many nutrients (including these sugars) are severely depleted in what we eat today.

And no,it doesn't matter if you're a health nut who eats
 tons of veggies and fruits either!

Yes, that's a better diet than burgers and fries. And yes, on average,you're going to be healthier and live longer than the typical junk food king. But No, you are still not going to get all the nutrients,including these sugars, that your body needs. Not even close! You may doubt that, but I urge you to read the following reports. I think you'll start to see the bigger picture after doing so.

Why You Can't Eat Healthy
Two Major Causes

You Are What You Eat
Great Article from University of Colorado Research Team

The Myth Of The Well-Balanced Diet
This paper can be found at glycoscience.com

What's really sad is that hardly anyone knows that they need these glyconutrients. The honest truth is that most doctors have no clue that 8 different glyconutrients have been recognized as essential!

Harpers Biochemistry, a standard textbook used by those studying tobecome doctors, didn't start publishing information on all 8 glyconutrients until 1996. Before then only 2 were listed. If your Doctor graduated before 1996, then he or she probably has very limited(if any) knowledge about those other 6 glyconutrients and the role they play in our bodies!


(That's not a cheapshot against doctors. I have great respect for the hard work and dedication that most of them put forth on a daily basis. It's just a simple fact that the huge majority of today's practicing doctors have never really learned about all 8 essential glyconutrients!!!)


I hope you are now starting to see the common sense behind taking glyconutrients as supplements. You're probably not even going to come close to getting what you need through the food you currently eat. In fact most people get only 2 of the 8 essential glyconutrients through their diet. Those are glucose and galactose (lactose in dairy products breaks down into galactose). And relying solely on your body to produce these sugars is a pretty risky proposition
in my opinion, especially when these sugars are readily available via supplements.

Common Sense and Glyconutrients

Plenty of doctors used to think that we didn't need to take vitamin supplements.
And today? They have no problem telling their patients to take vitamins. Of course that's long after it was proven that people are deficient in vitamins and minerals!


It's a simple cycle that has been repeated over and over again across many different walks of life:

All Truth Passes Through Three Stages:
1. It is Ridiculed.
2. It is Violently Opposed.

3. It is Finally Accepted As Being Self-Evident!

So......should I wait until the medical community decides to recognize that glyconutrients are just as vital as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, etc...? Or....Should I wait until a drug company produces a "synthetic" version of these sugars at some astronomical cost when I can already get the "real sugars" today that, in my opinion, are producing great results? No Thank You!

The truth, as I see it after educating myself, is that the human body was designed to heal itself. It just needs "the right input" to do so.

We have become so used to looking at drugs to heal us
that we've lost touch with the other side which is arguably even more important; Good Solid Nutrition!



Glyconutrients Do Not Heal You...

Glyconutrients Help Your Body Heal Itself!


They are also not an overnight "cure all" either. It does take time for these supplements to have an effect on the body. They are not designed to "mask" or just "relieve" the symptoms as many drugs do. They're actually helping your body deal with and solve the "true problem". And everyone's body is different.

Some people see great results very quickly and some have to wait longer. It depends on a wide variety of factors including, but not limited to, each person's own bodily systems, their current state of health, and the actual amount of glyconutrients they consume.

When all is said and done, glyconutrients are simply food. The problem is that we don't get that "food" in our diets anymore, regardless of what we eat. Some people just can't comprehend that. They want to wait until it's 100% proven.

As for me, I've seen enough, read enough, heard enough, studied enough, and experienced enough to come to the following common sense conclusion:


I believe that a lack of glyconutrients in our diets is a major cause (if not the main one)of numerous different health ailments and diseases. In my mind, there's simply no other logical explanation for why so many people recover from such serious problems "AFTER" adding glyconutrients to their diet!!!

That is just MY personal opinion.

Of course, you need to come to your own conclusions.
Please, do your own research, read and listen to the real life stories of everyday people, see what numerous doctors have to say, and then make an informed decision on your own.

Below you'll find some more information about glyconutrients that may help you come to that decision. I urge you to carefully check everything out. I'm also available to answer any and all questions you may have. Just email me here.
