GLYCONUTRIENTS - Scientific Technological Breakthrough
Introduction
NOTE: The word "glyconutrients" has been connected with a particular glyconutritional product for many years. However, the scientific world has "adopted" the name as a generic term, part of the scientific study known as Glycomics, and it is in that sense that it is used on this web site.
The intention of this site is to keep the public informed of new scientific technological breakthroughs in human wellness. We will continue adding new information in the field of Glycomics as it becomes available. When we talk about the functions of the body, it is strictly from a wellness point of view, showing the need for vitamins, minerals and nutritional supplements of all kinds and all aspects of healthy life style choices.
This site is not promoting particular products, but it is endeavoring to promote knowledge and awareness of the continuing decline in health and some of the basic reasons or causes behind this decline. We are not claiming to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent or ameliorate any disease (see Disclaimer at the bottom of the page.) We are encouraging people to take proper care of their bodies through diet, exercise, vitamins, minerals and natural supplements in order to replace the deficiency caused by a "toxic" earth, poor food choices and lack of exercise.
Serious research is still ongoing in this field and will be for many years to come.
A few definitions of terminology used during the next few pages will help you understand what this new techology is all about:
Glyco - a Greek word meaning "sweet."
Glycomics - study of the Glycosciences.
Glycobiology - study of the sugar portion of proteins and fats.
Glycoprotein - a sugar that is attached to a protein.
Glycolipid - a sugar that is attached to fat.
Glycoform - any sugar form.
Glycosylated - presence of one or more sugars added to a protein to form glycoprotein.
Glycoconjugates - broad term for all of the above.
This particular scientific breakthrough is the discovery that the body's cells communicate with one another! Scientists have stated that there are eight known monosaccharides necessary for cell-to-cell communication. There may be more; more research is needed. These sugars (glyconutrients) are NOT table sugars, vitamins, minerals, proteins, amino acids, fats, herbs, enzymes, homeopathic drugs, antibiotics and are definitely NOT "magic bullets" to cure specific diseases, but they are very important in our overall wellness.
CONCLUSION:
These sugars are basic to the need of every cell in the body.

Glycomics - Scientific Validation of Glyconutrients Glycomics -Thousands of articles have been published in magazines and medical journals on this subject since the emergence of this new breakthrough technology. Here are a few of them...
|
Eight Essential Sugars The eight essential sugars or monosaccharides keep the body functioning optimally. Without them health soon deteriorates.
|
Cellular Communication Cells "communicate" from cell to cell through sugar molecules in order to let the body know what each cell needs. Without this communication system the body cannot function.
|
Stem Cells and Glyconutrients Clinical studies prove that glyconutrients stimulate the body's own production of stem cells that can become any cell needed in any tissue.
|
Glyconutrient Conversion Glyconutrient conversion is so vital, our bodies would fail completely without them.
|
Glyconutrient Deficiency in Our Food! Glyconutrient deficiency in our fruits and vegetables are directly related to a planet that is rapidly losing these nutrients in the soil due to overuse and toxicity.
|
Immune System and Glyconutrients Immune system health is rapidly deteriorating all over the world. Glyconutrients are needed for a healthy body. Prevention is best but help is available even after the system starts breaking down.
|
Low Blood Pressure Low blood pressure is a real problem that can be solved in several ways, even if your doctor doesn't think low blood pressure is a problem!
|
Hypotension Symptoms Hypotension symptoms (low blood pressure) are not always understood by patients and doctors alike. Do you have low blood pressure? Check it out!
|
Home Treatment for Low Blood Pressure Home treatment for low blood pressure that you can do yourself! An "old" treatment that was used many years ago and still works today.
|
Your Digestive System Understanding your digestive system and how it works provides a better understanding when it comes to choosing vitamins, minerals and glconutritionals needed for your overall health and well being.
|
Digestive Juices and your Digestive Tract The production of digestive juices start with the salivary glands in the mouth and then continue down through the stomach, through other organs, then the intestines and the bowels until ejected.
|
Ecology of the Gut Ecology of the gut is a little known subject and yet is very important for overall health. It is home to approximately 70% of the body's immune system.
|
Genetic Food Pyramid Combining the genetic food pyramid and the low glycemic index, coupled with exercise and proper food supplements, will provide you with a healthier life style.
