Glyconutrients: Don't believe the hype
Categories: Nutrition & Supplements
Have you heard of Glyconutrients? They're a form a manufactured sugar that are supposedly healthy for you, because apparently your body is lacking in these so-called 'essential' sugars. Does this sound like a hoax to you? It does to me.
And it is, according to Mark's Daily Apple, who weighs in on the idea of Glyconutrients and uncovers that there is no such things as an essential sugar. In short, those who purchase glyconutrients are wasting their money, and there have been numerous lawsuits and warning letters urging manufacturers to stop scamming consumers.
So remember, don't believe everything you read, especially if the word 'glyconutrients' is in there.

Awesome, reminds me of supplements that have the words like hydro, meta, ethyl, ester, slim, trim as a pre-fix or suffix. http://www.physzique.com

Greetings,
Who is Martha Edwards talking to when she writes an article like "Glyconutrients: Don't believe the hype" ? When Dr. Ben Carson one of the top doctors in the world, (USA Today) endorses glyconutrients and Dr. John Axford of the Royal Society of Medicine, endorses glyconutrients and Dr. Murry who published the 56th chapter in Harpers Biochemistry Textbook who all doctors use for reference, discusses glycobiology, the study of these eight essential sugars, who is she trying to kid? Articles like this will discredit the website and those in association with it. I certainly would not list my name on anything associated with her.
Research your subjects before publishing them.

Hi Ted,
You're correct that I am not an expert in Glyconutrients, but if you read more closely, you'll see that this isn't based on my own personal beliefs but an article I read from a trusted source.
