Who says, besides Mannatech, says that you need all 8 sugars at the same time?

They don't occur in nature that way.

There are companies who say they produce glyconutrients but they

quite often get closed down because only Mannatech has the patents

for producing the glyconutrient formula, which contains all 8 of the

essential sugars.

Hi ,

Someone is always going to be first in line to discover new things, many

besides Mannatech understand and are researching Glycobiology in depth

and have been for years. There is still so much to be discovered and

understood in this field. The research was going on long before the

scientists that are now involved with Mannatech made the discovery. Even

the drug companies got on board and Glaxo klein just came out with

their first glyco drug. It costs $3500 per month. The other new glyco

drug from another company costs $8500. per month, but it will be

recommended by the doctors and covered by insurance so that will make it

all good.

If having all 8 sugars was not important I guarantee there would not be

so many companies trying to imitate them. These companies are not

stupid, just violating the patent, or lying, one or the other. Here is a

list of studies from many sources that might interest you. As far as

occuring all together in nature?? That is not something that has ever

been said, many nutrients that we need do not all come in one food, that

would sure be convenient though.

Hi , I don't doubt that glyconutrients are important. I just wonder if

there are synergystic components, that are missing from the powder, that are in

the whole food sources of these nutrients. I can also see how other companies

would want to imitate a money making product, whether there was any truth to the

claims or not. It happens all the time. I've been researching Goji berries and

there is so much deception in the advertising of them and products made from

them that it's hard to find any real information on their health benefits. There

are hundreds of products made that include them, some with total deception of

where they are from or how they are grown, besides false claims that they cure

breast cancer. Scientists tend to isolate the components and research the

values individually instead of the way those components work together. My

question is about how glyconutrients, Ambrotose, works without all of the

components found in nature. It is an isolated

supplement made from several sources. I'm not against Mannatech or Ambrotose.

I just have some questions that have never been asked in this group.

Thanks for the list of studies.
