Frequently Asked Questions About Glyconutrients

October 1st, 2009 · 2 Comments

How do I know which glyconutrients to supplement my diet with? 

There are many supplements on the market today that claim to have glyconutrients in them. However, only one product contains all 8 of the necessary glyconutrients in a standardized, stabilized form that is safe. This is a patented product in the United States and patent pending around the world. Be careful of “knock offs” or companies making claims concerning their product that violate that patent.

How do I know how much to take for my current state of health? 

No two people are alike so it is impossible for someone to advise another on an exact amount that one needs to take in order to achieve the desired results. The best recommendation is to follow the guidelines on the bottle and be consistent with it. Consistency is the key!  

Are glyconutrients alone enough to achieve my overall health goals or are their other supplements I should be taking? 

Glyconutrients are an important part of an overall health and nutrition program. However, they are not a replacement for vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, phytosterols, antioxidants, etc. There are people that see great results simply by taking glyconutrients with no other nutrition. However, to see optimal results in your health, you should consider a wholistic approach: intelligent supplementation including the above mentioned supplements that are standardized to meet Good Manufacturing Practices set by the FDA, a good exercise program and a low glycemic diet. See the Additional Information Page for more information on the above mentioned supplements. 

How long does it take to begin to see changes in my overall health? 

While some people begin to see changes in their health almost overnight, others take longer to see results. One should look at a 4 to 6 month commitment to begin to really evaluate the effect of any nutrition program. Again, consistency is key.  

Will Glyconutrients interfere with any medications that I am currently taking? 

Since Glyconutrients are considered a food and not a pharmaceutical drug, they are safe to take with medications. However, you may want to let your doctor know that you are beginning on a nutritional program so he can help monitor your progress.

Are Glyconutrients safe for everyone? 

Glyconutrients are a nontoxic food substance that supports normal immune function. They contain food molecules that are absolutely necessary for life. In fact, 5 of the 8 biologically active saccharides are found in a nursing mother’s breast milk.  

Where do Glyconutrients come from? 

Glyconutrients are derived from plants across the globe. They are extracted, stabilized and then put into a powder form so that they can be consumed. For example, one of the 8 glconutrients, Mannose, is derived from the Aloe plant. The Aloe plant is a rich source of this particular sacharride and is commercially grown by some growers for the extraction of glyconutrients. Fucose is another glyconutrient that is found in certain types of seaweed. Both of these nutrients have been known for centuries to have certain properties that are beneficial to humans.
