GlyconutrientsTypes of Sugars

Monosaccharidese.g. Glucose

Oligosaccharidescombination of between 3 and 10 sugars

Polysaccharidescombination of more than 10 sugars

GlyconutrientsThere are 200 different sugars but 8 are essential – these 8 are known as Glyconutrients

GlucoseGalactoseXyloseMannoseFucoseN-acetylgalactosamineN-acetylglucosamineN-acetylneuraminic acid

5 of the 8 sugars are found in human breast milk

GlyconutrientsGlyconutrients are available from fruit &

vegetables, provided they are picked when ripe

We get 2 from modern diet – Glucose and GalactoseGalactose

Only 11% of US population have 5-8 fruits & vegetables every day

25% have no vegetables on a daily basis

50% have no fruits on a daily basis

GlyconutrientsIf deficient in the body, the body attempts to synthesize the missing sugars from glucose

requires 37 enzymatic steps and uses high amount of energy

Glyconutrients attach to cell membranes. They have receptors

Glyconutrients bind to lectins which are binding proteins (with 2 receptors)

When glyconutrients bind with protein or lipids, they form glycoconjugates i.e. glycoproteins & glycolipids

GlyconutrientsGlyconutrients awaiting Binding with lectins

(covalent binding proteins)

Cell

GlyconutrientsMajor functions

Glycoproteins transmit biologic information through cell-cell communication

Glycoproteins are used to form some types of collagen

Glycoproteins assist in cell adhesion to form tissues

Glycoproteins function in cell-signalling

GlyconutrientsMajor functions

Glycoproteins assist in immunomodulation (e.g. Mannose activates macrophages which activateactivates macrophages which activate NK cells)

Glycoproteins are involved in hormone production (e.g. Human chorionic gonadotropin, TSH)

GlyconutrientsFoodState Technology

Glyconutrients are the scientific basis for FoodState products

FoodState products are glycoprotein containingFoodState products are glycoprotein containing products

Glycoproteins are attached to the nutrient and they carry the nutrient inside the cell

The sequencing of the amino acids making up the protein in glycoprotein is critical

= Molecular complex for effective inter & Intra cellular biologic information

GlyconutrientsFoodState Technology

The amino acid sequence is unique for each individual nutrient.

It is the sequencing that has the appropriate transfer codes.The work of Prof. G Blöbel demonstrated that it was the proteins that acted as the messengers inside and outside the cells (proteins have intrinsic signals that govern their transport and localization in the cell)
