27. One of the most important discoveries in health and disease of the
last 10 years or so, may be that the production of the sugars that the body requires to form glycoproteins (cellular messenger molecules) is quite ATP intensive, ADP intensive, vitamin/mineral dependant, and enzyme dependant.

When an individual is perfectly healthy, all this goes according to plan. When a body is toxic, has a persistent virus, is bacteriologically challenged (Mycoplasma), stressed, genetically imperfect (most of us) etc, these sugars may not be produced in sufficient quantities.

When this occurs, glycoproteins may become (must become) malformed/incomplete. All cellular interactions within the body including the recognition of cancer cells, hormonal signalling, a cells need for cleansing, feeding, defending and its need to "die", (apoptosis) are dependant upon these sugars and properly completely formed glycoproteins.

Wouldn't it be nice if a human body could recruit its own stem cells?

Accelerate the removal of toxins?

Fight more hardily against virus and bacteria?

Well guess what. It can. Here are two examples for you, the rest you can search out on your own.

Conventional wisdom -- and many mothers -- would say Letourneau's health is at risk because of his all-too-human love of sugar.

But not Letourneau, 44, or his sister, Jeanie Stenberg, 40. No, they both believe Letourneau owes his life to the granulated white stuff.

"It saved his life," Stenberg said. "He's my living proof."

The substance Stenberg credits with saving her brother's life isn't the kind of sugar that comes in cubes or 5-pound bags. It's actually in the form of glyconutritional supplements, a combination of sugars that are said to help cells communicate, leading to better health.

Letourneau has taken the capsules dutifully every day since November. However, his introduction to glyconutrition came the first week in October, when he received about one year's supply of the supplement intravenously while he lay in a local hospital, dying, his organs failing one by one.

Sugars That Heal offers a revolutionary new health plan based on the science of glyconutrients--foods that contain saccharides. It gives authoritative guidance for getting all eight saccharides conveniently into your diet through supplements and readily available foods, as well as detailed information on correct dosages. Here, too, are chapters dealing with the special nutritional needs of people suffering from cancer, heart disease, asthma, and neurological disorders, and methods for using glyconutrients to treat depression, obesity, and ADHD.

The more doctors learn about glyconutrients, the more excited they become about their long-term fundamental health benefits. Now, with this new book, the breakthroughs in the study of glyconutrients are available to everyone. Whether your goal is to prevent disease, live longer and better, or treat a serious illness that has eluded conventional medicine, Sugars That Heal is your essential guide to complete health.
