Glyconutrients

In the early 1990’s, a German scientist wanted to know how our immune cells can tell whether another cell is a foreign invader such as a bacteria, or if it is a human body cell. His discovery unveiled the science of Glycobiology. Glycobiology or Glycomics states:

-On every healthy human cell are tree like structures called glycoforms.
-The branches of these trees are made up of glyconutrients.
-Glyconutrients are responsible for all intercellular communication in the entire human body!

Glyconutrients are plant saccharides that we must intake as part of our diet. These saccharides are special intercellular carbohydrates (sugars) that form the letters which make up the language our bodies. When cells meet eachother they “talk” using the codes made up by glyconutrients.

Work in the field of Glycomics has won at least 4 Nobel Prizes, and is now taught in medical schools (Harper’s Textbook of Biochemistry – 1996). The two most significant points are:
1. Glycoforms exist for intercellular communication.
2. Our inadequate diets are only providing 2 out of the 8 glyconutrients needed to produce these glycoforms.

Because of farming techniques, depleted soil nutrients, picking fruits and vegetables green (ripening them artifcially), along with food preparation and storage methods, we are seriously depleted in glyconutrients.

EVERY single cell in our bodies needs these 8 essential sugars: every blood cell, every bone cell; every brain cell.

EVERY person on earth needs glyconutrients, and very few are obtaining them from their diet.

These “super sugars” produce the glycoproteins that are responsible for a countless host of messages so that “everyone” knows where to go and what to do. Now the body can convey things like: “We need more of this hormone.” or “There are cancer cells here; call in the white blood cells to attack.” If there is too much sucrose in the blood, the pancreas receives the notice to manufacture insulin; if it is time to sleep, the brain knows to increase production of melatonin. The communications are endless.

The immune system is affected greatly by glyconutrients. Suddenly each cell in the army of defense can see and hear properly; cancer cells are identified and destroyed along with viruses, bacteria, and fungi.

Autoimmune disorders such as MS, lupus, and allergies are quieted as the now intelligent immune system stops attacking healthy tissue! The white blood cells begin to work as a well trained army protecting the body instead of destroying it. With glyconutrition we finally have the chance to repair, and we begin to heal.

Fibromyalgia and Chronic Immune Dysfunction Syndrome left me in the dark despair of constant pain and illness. In January 2002 I finally had to forsake a beloved career of teaching highschool. The next few years were a blur of increased flares with multiple symptoms.

Then a friend of mine who is a nurse at Tarzana hospital in California suggested glyconutrients. I didn’t have to research long before knowing that this was something I needed to do. I started supplementing with these wonderful sugars in June of 2005.

How does glyconutrition work?
Every moment of our lives old cells are dying off and new ones take their place. We call this cell turnover.

While taking glyconutrients:
The new cell is formed with glycoproteins attached to it.

For example, it takes 120 days for the blood cells to turn over, so people with immune disorders usually begin to notice a difference around 3 - 6 months.

I had my first pain free days at about 2 ½ months (but started to fall asleep faster at only 3 weeks). I have gone from daily/nightly burning pain (for years) and 10-20 days of migraines a month, to virtually no muscle pain and no migraines! These are only two of the numerous symptoms that have been greatly alleviated or that have disappeared all together!

In December 2005 I went out shopping to get ready for a mission trip to a third world country and then went grocery shopping afterward- hours on my feet with no pain! This is all a miracle to me. Just the shopping is something I rarely ever did; it was difficult to even go to the grocery store, but a trip to another country? Never!

It is important to remember that glyconutrients are food, and the best results come from taking sufficient amounts (which can vary depending on the situation) and to take them on an ongoing basis. It takes many years for the entire body to complete cell turnover.

Total Cellular Nutrition
The overall key is to take as many of the Classes of Nutrients as possible at the same time! They all work together like an Olympic team. You may own a lamp, an electric socket, and pay for electricity, but if you are missing just one small component called a bulb, you do not have light.

Regaining my health is the most exciting experience! It seemed hopeless for so long. It is hard to believe that I have actually improved this much. The word I keep using to describe the change is “dramatic”.

As I write my story of fibromyalgia and chronic immune dysfunction (looking back at the first symptoms) I've seen that it spans much of my life. It is a challenge, because it requires that I have the courage to open up and reveal the dark places on bright paper for anyone to see. I suppose the other is reliving the pain.

God bless your path of healing.
