What Are Glyconutrients?
Many people commonly ask the question What are Glyconutrients. Glyconutrients are plant based and non toxic. Our bodies do produce trace amount of glyconutrients; but they are not readily available in our diets. Most glyconutrients are derived from sea algae, aloe, and bark. This is why they are not readily available in our diets.
Ingredients: Arabinogalactin, Aloe Vera Whole Leaf powdered extract, Ghatti Gum powder, Guar Gum powder, Fenugreek Seed powder, Maitake Mushroom powder, Locust Bean Gum powder, Cinnamon powder, Stevia.
There are eight different types of glyconutrients.
- Fucose (not to be confused with fructose)
- Galactose
- Glucose
- Mannose
- N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)
- N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc)
- N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac)
- Xylose
Everybody is very family with number 6 - glucsoamine. This is the joint glyconutrient. We have removed this from our formula because many people have allergies and stomach reactions to glucosamine. Our formula does contain the other 7 glyconutrients.
Fucose
Has shown the ability to suppress certain inflammatory reactions in the skin while killing off invading bacteria.
Galactose
Galactose is found in the lactose of dairy products. It is referred to as a brain sugar; and is believed to help with stem cell regeneration.
Glucose
Glucose is found in carbohydrates and proteins. It is referred to as the energy sugar as it is readily absorbed into the blood stream and provided immediate effect.
Mannose
Mannose is found in certain vegetables. It is referred to as the anti bacterial sugar.
N-acetylgalactosamine
N-acetylgalactosamine is similar to galactose. It is found in shark cartilages. It is referred to as an anti inflammatory sugar.
N-acetylglucosamine
N-acetylglucosamine is similar to N-acetylgalactosamine. It is referred to as an anti inflammatory sugar.
N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac), a form of sialic acid
N-acetylneuraminic acid is referred to as a brain sugar.
Xylose
Xylose is an antibacterial and anti fungal carbohydrate. Research has given us evidence that Xylose may help prevent cancer of the digestive tract.
