Glyconutrients

Hello Dr. Stoll,

I have been viewing your site for sometime now whenever I have some kind of health issue I usually come here first to check and see what information you have on it. Anyway, I have been very troubled with a recent issue.

You say that sugar is bad for you and how you have tests that it decreases your immune system effectiveness for a certain period of time.

Now I have some questions about this which relate to some products sold by a Network Marketing company.

Okay, first of all they sell something called glyconutrients and from what I understand, it's a combination of 8 different types of sugars. Glycose, Fructose, Galacatose and a bunch of others that I can't pronouce/spell. Actually, there's a list of 6 of them here I think: http://www.aw.com/mathews/ch09/monosacc.htm

These are natural sugars which are supposedly supposed to help your body recover and are essential. I don't know much about them, just what I can find on the net. I just wanted to have your opinion. Here is an article of a guy who was also 'supposedly' <- I like that word - healed by glyconutrients alone. Read this and let me know your over all thoughts of them (if you have the time): http://www.lvrj.com/lvrj_home/2001/Apr-22-Sun-2001/living/15843088.html

After I recieve a reply I will post some more information I have gathered depending on what you tell me. Thanks so much for any information, this has been bugging me for a while now. I should have asked you earlier.
