The functional components of glyconutritionals appear to boost production or activity of enzymes that act as:

1.Blocking agents: detoxifying carcinogens or keeping them from reaching or penetrating cells;

2.Suppressing agents: restraining malignant changes in cells that have been exposed to carcinogens.

There are four basic reasons why people get sick. These are: (1)Decreased function of immune system (2)Increased oxidative stress (3)Diminished/ faulty neurotransmitter function (4)Poor/faulty cellular repair/regeneration

Glyconutritional supplementation will help give your body ability to heal, correct, repair and protect itself. Therefore, it does not matter if you are in a state of sickness or considered healthy, you can benefit from food supplementation, specifically glyconutrient supplementation.

WHEN WERE THESE DISCOVERIES MADE? The discovery of importance of glycoproteins was awarded "Biochemical Discovery of' Year" in 1996 by American Naturopathic Medical Association. The ANMA further released statement "The most Significant Discovery of Century". "Almost without exception where ever two or more living cells interact in a specific way, cell surface carbohydrates will be involved " (Bio/'Technology, John Hodgson 1990). Major studies have recently indicated exciting revelations regarding significance of glycoproteins in our development', out- growth, and in formation of disease.

WHO CAN USE THESE SUPPLEMENTS? Scientists are suggesting that glyconutritionals may provide missing link in body's amazing capacity to heal itself and sustain health. Thus anyone who eats, drinks or breathes in today's world is likely to benefit from these supplements.

Glyconutritionals

The word of herbalism was carried to Europe via crusaders, and texts were translated into Latin, which when printing was developed, information became more widespread, though only if you could read. So herbal folklore passed on from generation to generation, by word of mouth. In 16th century John Gerard published in 1597 "Herbal or General Historie of Plantes". He had been greatly influenced by great medical scholar Paracelsus.

Now in recent time medical fraternity is becoming aware of benefits of some of these ancient methods, and in United Kingdom some areas are becoming available on National Health System. I would invite you to visit sites included in www.magicure.com and see for yourself benefits that are available.
