Don’t Be Fooled By “Health” Products – Glyconutrients

by coachjon

Have you heard about these glyconutrients being sold in Singapore? Apparently they are great for your health and are so recent that few people even know about them! (The biblical saying “there is nothing new under the sun” comes to mind…”)

The idea is that there are “essential sugars” that we all need for optimal health. And these glyconutrients are it!

Be smart. There are essential amino acids and essential fatty acids. These are things that ARE good for us and help us with everything from immune system function, detoxification, cell membrane function, and reducing fat storage (and a huge list more!).

No need for more of this is our diets!

No need for more of this is our diets!

But there is NO SUCH THING as essential sugars. In fact there isn’t supposed to be much sugar in us at all. If you drained the blood of a person and dried it up. How much sugar do you think there would be in that dried up powder?

Answer – Just a couple of grams! About the amount in one teaspoon.

Blood sugar needs to be kept in a very small range for optimal health, and we can manufacture any sugar we need from proteins. (it doesn’t take much!)

The idea of essential sugars is bogus.

If there are proper, double blind, peer reviewed studies that come out proving these glyconutrients work, I may change my tune (possibly)… but i doubt it will happen. But till then, stay away from stuff that costs alot and does nothing (and with these glyconutrients being simple sugars, they are probably bad for you!)

Here is what I would buy if I had a limited supplement budget:
1. A digestive aid
2. A good fish oil. (I would only use Poliquin’s, Metagenics, Thorne, or Biotest)
3. A good multivitamin/veggie extract supplements (same brands)
4. Magnesium and zinc
Hey if you are in Singapore – get them from me, I sell only the best stuff!:)

This stuff is proven, and has worked in both clinical and real life settings.

I don’t know much about glyconutrients but I can attest that the supplements you sell are of high quality, even better than my naturopath ! =)

Hi Coach Jon, i wondered why there isn’t a protein powder mentioned in the limited supplement budget….Is not a protein powder necessary for weight training?

This is because, if you budget is truly limited, digestive aids and fish oil will be more beneficial for your money. Its no point having protein powder if you cant absorb stuff well, and/or you are allergic to it.
