Glyconutritionals - What Are Glyconutrients Supplements?

Glyconutrients Supplements

Since glyconutrients are such a new discovery, and people are having such great results, a great deal of hype surrounds glyconutrionals these days. It is not so uncommon to see the words "miracle cure" in connection with them, written by independent individuals meaning no harm. Allow me to investigate glyconutritionals, explaining in layman's terms what glyconutrients are, what their function is in the body, and their role in having optimal health.

First off, glyconutrients do not "cure" anything, nor do they "mitigate" or "treat" anything. Instead, they help the body to heal itself. Glyconutrients are not FDA Approved. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates pharmaceutical drugs, and not all natural supplements. But rather than get into splitting hairs and reviewing misconceptions, I would rather define things and make this all seem more clear to you.

So, what are glyconutrients?

Research as recent as within the past decade has shown that the cells in our body communicate and recognize each other through identifiers on the outside of the cells, made up of proteins and the glyconutrients. The terms 'glyconutritionals', 'glyconutrient', 'glyconutrients', 'monosaccharide', 'biological sugars' and 'essential sugars' can all be used to describe the eight vital nutrients that form the glycoproteins that line the outside of cells. Commercial uses of the term will usually just refer to particular blends of polysaccharides, dietary fiber compounds and plant extracts. I will not list the exact 8 glyconutrients here, but if you want that, then see my site listed below, or contact me through my site listed at the bottom of this article.

Polysaccharides are large carbohydrate molecules consisting of a number of monosaccharide monomers such as fructose, ribose and glucose. But of course, these are simply examples of sugar monomers and these are not what you will be getting in your glyconutrient supplement because fructose and ribose are not 'essential sugars' for cell-to-cell communication. The glyconutritional formulations were initially discovered by the Research and Development Corporation out of Texas that currently manufactures the only Advance Glyconutrients supplement with the proper eight glyconutrients or precursors. They have been marketed around the world by associates as having health benefits.

So how do you know which one to buy from? Find out if they are the original advanced glyconutrients.

Buyer Beware:
There are a number of other companies now supplying "so-called" or copy-cat glyconutritional products. Companies sell formulations of polysaccharides and sometimes even fiber as glyconutritionals, with varying constituents that have been previously used in health products, including: aloe vera extracts, arabinogalactan fraction of Larch extract, gum arabic and gum acacia, ghatti gum, gum tragacanth, kelp, cordyceps, xylitol, glucosamine, fenugreek seed, oat fiber, and Shiitake and Reishi mushroom. But manufacturing glyconutrients is not just 'mixing a salad' of nutrients. Don't buy the product unless you are buying a correctly made supplement that has been made through science and research, and has been tested to work!

The beneficial actions of the arabinogalactans in glyconutritionals have been demonstrated as a prebiotic effect, a reduced incidence of opportunistic pathogens, stimulation of the body's immune system, increased numbers of gut anaerobes and reduced levels of ammonia.

Medical sciences have noted that soluble fibers, including polysaccharides, are transformed into beneficial short-chain fatty acids after fermentation in the large intestine. Further, there are proven anti-inflammatory benefits with saccharides such as glucosamine and gum acacia, with trials showing beneficial effects for patients suffering from inflammation-related conditions like arthritis and asthma.

With these benefits, glyconutritional formulations are categorized as an alternative therapy. There are a lot of universities and elite research organizations that have started to publish articles and studies on glyconutrients and their health benefits on a cellular level.

Ultimately, the ingredients in glyconutritionals have been shown to have positive health benefits. Individuals are best advised to consult medical advice that can take into account personal health circumstances when considering the use of glyconutritionals.
