Scientific research has identified a new class of nutrient which was thought to be unimportant.
To optimize cell functions, the missing nutrition must be added back in to the diet. This knowledge will affect health, pharmaceutical and medical practice. Ground breaking research in molecular biology gives us the tools to heal ourselves one cell at a time.Structures protruding from the cell walls
Researchers looking at living cells using modern electron microscopes are able to resolve images near the molecular level. When they looked at cells, they discovered structures attached to the outside edge of the cell wall. The cell was literarily covered with this material. It turned out to be made out of sugar molecules. Scientist call this glycoprotein. Glyco for sugar and protein because it is attached to a cell.The glycoproteins change and are not stagnate. They are made on the inside of the cell then sent or pushed thru the cell wall via a specialized hole to the outside. Sugar molecules are varied and versatile can be connected together in a vast multitude of shapes. The configuration is a coded message and is how a cell communicates. They can send messages that tell other cells it has a certain type of disease. Then antibody cells can be made to deal with the problem. The discovery and ability to study glycoprotein, is a new area of study at some universities.
Not all sugar is alike. The Sugars found on the exterior of cell walls cover it like fuzz on a peach. Of the two hundred known sugar molecules, only eight are used. These eight sugars are on all living cells. When food is cooked these essential sugars are destroyed. Eating a variety of fresh picked uncooked fruits and vegetables may be the best way for humans to get the specialized sugars to build cells. Nine servings a day of fresh fruit and vegetables are recommended. (USDA)
The modern diet lacks essential nutrients
Processed and cooked foods have carbohydrate a long chain of the sugar called glucose the body burns for fuel. The other vital and essential dietary the sugars used on the cell membrane are few.If we can't get enough raw food for nutrition from the food we eat then it becomes necessary to supplement as is done with vitamins.
Well, The body does have a backup system. If you don't get these essential forms of sugar it will manufacture them. But at a cost of energy an enzymes to perform the reactions. If you are not sick and wonder why you are feeling tired in the afternoon with a lack of energy. It is probably that your body is using that energy to manufacture the monosaccharides. It has to have the monosaccharides/sugars , all cells use them. The new paradigm is "do or die". Meaning supplement with essential nutritional products cells need to be healthy happy and productive. Without it, it is easier to get run down tired and sick.
Proper nutrition is necessary for good health. It appears that a new class of nutrition can help. This product is called Ambrotose. It is a combination of the eight essential monosaccharides in a dry powder. Funny thing is, it does not taste sweet. Only Mannatech has the patent and distribution rights. It has chosen to market this product thru independent distributors. It has the form of a multi level marketing setup. But it is not a scam. It has real science behind the product. It offers continuing medical education credit programs to doctors just like pharmaceutical companies. Ambrotose is a nutraceutical not pharmaceutical which means it is non-toxic and is in a class similar to food. Recently discovered the science of glycobiology was added into medical studies. Happers biomedical text book has added a chapter. Doctors graduating in 2004 will have had exposure to this discovery. Those who began supplementing with essential sugars are recovering from chronic illness. Pilot studies have been conducted with 70-80% rates of improvements for auto immune diseases. FDA rules prevent saying it can cure anything. You should see you doctor for illness. More research is being done and clinical trials are underway.
