Glyconutrient Suppliers

Some glyconutrients supplements can be found in health food shops or through product distributors. Some products contain only a particular glyconturient eg glucosamine which is useful for joint conditions - damage and inflammation - whilst other products contain more of the glyconutrients. The greater the number of the eight essential glyconutrients you can supply your body the less work it will have to do in trying to make the missing ones.

Look for glyconutrients supplements that are high quality and contain as many of the 'essential eight' as possible at adequate levels. It is also important to ensure that products contain standardised and stabilised glyconutrients, made from plant sources.

There is a range of suppliers of glyconutrients. Most supply products with only one or two of the essential glyconutrients, but with other non-essential glyconutrients. Some products contain only non-essential glyconutrients. These non-essential glyconutrients do have benefits but are not as far-reaching or as dramatic as the eight essential glyconutrients. Where the glyconutrients have proven benefit they are called nutraceutics.

Nutraceutics is a growing field. The word nutraceutical is a term that comes from the combination of nutrition and pharmaceutical. It describes natural food-based (nutrition) substances that have pharmacological (healing) effects on the human body. Nutraceuticals is a term used by the US Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine to describe all natural, standardised, non-toxic dietary supplements designed to optimise health through improved nutrition.

The No. 1 leader in glyconutrients research and development is Mannatech. This company has been involved in the field since 1996, and has a reputation for a high quality, pharmaceutical grade range of glyconutrients products. The company has applied for, and is in the process of being granted patents in over 100 countries throughout the world, of two or more of these glyconutrients in a supplement form.

The marketplace is demanding new regulations that require strict scientific validation and this has resulted in a set of GMPs (Good Manufacturing Practices). There are a couple of lesser companies who market glyconutrients despite the patents and patents pending. These companies do not appear to place the same emphasis on GMPs as does Mannatech. One of these company's products includes other ingredients such as maltodextrin, potassium bicarbonate, silicon dioxide, sodium bicarbonate. Mannatech has only plant ingredients in their glyconutrients products.
