I'm disgusted with our healthcare system! We don't have a healthcare system, we have a disease care system. Feel ill? Take a pill! Drug companies have brain washed you, the American public, to think that we are deficient in drugs! We run to the doctor to have them treat symptoms. Yet symptoms are not the cause of your condition! 40 years ago we had only 4 autoimmune conditions. Now we have over 80. Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Parkinson's, Crohn's, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes and more. Cancer can not be caught. It is abnormal growth of normal tissue. The body is breaking down from within. Are we born with a deficiency in chemotherapy or radiation? How about those of you on anti-depressants? Do you really think you were born with a shortage of Prozac, Wellbutrin, Zoloft or Celexa? If the pharmaceutical companies wanted you healthy, they would be broke and out of business.

Glyconutrients represent the latest in science. They are required for our cells to communicate. We are deficient in 6 of the 8 due to our poor food supply. Fruits and vegetables are harvested green from fields void of the required minerals, vitamins and trace elements. 90% of our food is processed. We super size it and package it. Our water system is contaminated with known carcinogens and our air is polluted. How do you expect to get the nutrients you need out of the food you are eating? We have to supplement with glyconutrients, phytonutrients, phytosterols, anti-oxidants, and a multi vitamin and mineral complex that can actually be absorbed and assimilated as food!

Mannatech has the only complete glyconutrient supplement in the world. No other company can have all essential glyconutrients in their product. Glyconutrients help the body to repair, restore, and regenerate cells. Healthy cells make healthy tissue, which makes healthy organs, which makes healthy systems which, makes you healthy. Phytonutrients represent the building blocks necessary for the body to create the right amount of hormones that the body determines is necessary to support the endocrine system's function. You may be thinking hormones are only related to sex. We have over 87 known hormones and only 17 are used for reproduction. The other 70 are used to control sleep, moods, metabolism, digestion and more. Phytonutrients represent the 8-10 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables we need on a daily basis. Anti-oxidants are required to repair cellular damage and assist in the immune response. A good food based vitamin and mineral supplement that can be absorbed into the cells is a must. Mannatech is poised to release the industry first, 100% plant based, complete, vitamin and mineral complex that has a 90-97% absorption rate. The industry average is 4-10%.

Mannatech is also set to release a home DNA test to determine if you have the genetic markers for 7 of the most common disease conditions. Wouldn't be nice to know you could address your health before you have a symptom?

Doctor's do not know about glyconutrients because the science was not published in the medical textbooks until 1996. Doctors also are typically not educated in nutrition. Yet even here there is hope. Mannatech is the only nutritional company in the country that has developed and patented a nutritional product that has 3rd party validation to allow all types of doctors to receive continuing education requirements in the field of glycobiology. So before you take your doctor's word on anything regarding glyconutrients, ask a couple of questions. Have they studied Harper's Biochemistry 1996 and up? Have they had any post graduate continuing education classes in glycobiology? Have they reviewed the thousands of peer reviewed indexed journals, articles, papers, and books on the science of glycobiology? If they say no, then how can you take their recommendation seriously? Come on folks. It's time to take back control of your health from the medical and drug establishment! The life you save with this information may even be yours.
