Feed Your Body To Better Health With Glyconutrients
Glyconutrients are a new “class” of nutrients. Just like vitamins are one class of nutrients and minerals are another. It is not very often that a discovery of a new class of nutrients comes along. Glyconutrients are special carbohydrates (monosaccharides) that provide the building blocks that enable the cells in your body to communicate effectively. These form the “name tags” of the cells so that the cells can recognize which cells are good and bad, and which cells are lacking in certain nutrients.
While there are over 200 known sacharrides, Harper’s Biochemistry College textbook identified 8 as essential for the cellular communication and recognition. Independent studies have confirmed those manufacturers who formulate glyconutrient formulas actually have the 8 glyconutrients needed by the body.
In the past few years, there has actually been several tens of thousands of peer-reviewed papers on glycoproteins and glycolipids, the cellular glycoforms made in the body from consuming glyconutrients.
Glyconutrients are FOOD, and more specifically sugars. Glyconutrients are naturally occurring sugars that are found in certain plants. When you add these sugars to your diet, you provide your cells with all of the necessary components to be healthy. The 8 essential nutrients are as follows:Galactose, Frucose, xylose, Glucose, Mannose, N-acetyl Glucosamine, N-acetyl Galactosamine, N-acetyl Neurominic Acid.
Glyconutrient complexes are not a fad or a trend. These products are based on hard scientific fact. Scientists have recognized 8 essential glyconutrients that enable our cells to communicate with one another. Cellular communication is at the core of the body’s ability to fight disease and maintain optimal health. Consuming glyconutrients on a regular basis can provide the body with the needed raw materials needed to construct healthy cells when ever needed.
Glyconutrient complexes come in capsule, tablet, and bulk powder forms and range greatly in prices depending on the manufacture of the product you purchase. Always consult your local or internet health food store to find the right name brand to ensure purity and quality of the product you decide to purchase.
