The Leading Company in Glyconutritionals is Recognized for Research Showing GI Bacteria Can Break Down Complex Carbohydrates in Glyconutritional Supplements

Home to nearly two-thirds of the body's immune system, the digestive tract is a biological ecosystem that is still an enigma to medical science. While it is recognized that some plant-based carbohydrates are among the best-known immune system regulators, science knows little about whether the gastrointestinal (GI) tract can assimilate some of these complex substances or, once metabolized, how these substances might exert their immune-modulating effects.

Research showed that GI bacteria, indeed, are capable of breaking down these complex carbohydrates. Read more...

Carbohydrate research is growing throughout the scientific community. Recognizing that certain plant polysaccharides exert potent effects, the glyconutritional leader is focused on finding the most efficacious and powerful sources of immune- modulating saccharides found in nature.
