Ahhh, where to start.
>>He has also patented 150 different products including this one and all of them are well researched and proven to work in a several different cases in treating illness's underlying condition at the cellular level.
Ahh, but where is the study on THIS medication for THIS disease? Quite frankly, I don't give a rat's behind if this cures cancer. I want to know if it will help cystic fibrosis. You have no proof. Therefore it is all conjecture and supposition. This is not good science.
>>The truth is that you cannot receive all your needed sugars throug our daily diets. Only 2 of 8 essential monosaccharides are found in our everyday diet. Glyconutrients can fill the void of the missing 6 monosaccharides. In order for cells to communicate and respond properly to unwanted matter that enters the body all 8 monosaccharides are required.
And this is why our bodies manufacture them for us. If these were essential in the diet and we weren't getting them... we'd all be dead. Therefore, we must be able to synthesize them. Furthermore, this means that they aren't essential in the diet and you are bending the truth to the view you desire. This is not honest.
>>Just a little info on the validity of glyconutrient products: Mannatech is the largest supplier of glyconutritional products.
That should make me trust you MORE? That makes me trust you less. If this were the miracle you claimed, other people would be trying to get a bigger market share.
>>Many people claim 'snake oil' to this company because it is indeed a Multi-level Marketing Company.
Yes, because multi-level marketing just reeks of "scam."
>>Mannatech takes this approach to selling their products because the FDA has not approved Glyconutrients.
I still haven't gotten a good answer on the double-blind placebo trial yet. Plus, that statement alone makes your company sound like the little kid in the sandbox who throws sand in someone's face because they wouldn't let them use the shovel. "But moooooooom, he wouldn't let me use the shovel!" "Well that's no reason to do something you know you shouldn't"
>>All of the research that has been done shows us simply that glycobiology is real and the effects of the product are evident in many cases all over the world.
Poison is real too. Flushing your money down the toilet is also real. I'm not however suggesting that it's a good idea to try it. Just because something exists, doesn't mean it's a good idea. Please, stun me some more with your lovely logic. Case studies are inherantly flawed. They are the stepping stone to actual research, not the research itself.
>>Check out www.mannarelief.org , www.glycoscience.org, and if you'd like just GOOGLE glyconutrients and there will be over 200,000 resources, some containing valid research and data that proves the effectiveness of these products.
And if I already have and found the information to be sketchy at best, what am I to do then? Wait for the study that will never be done?
>>I've been researching glyconutrients for the passed year and I was a skeptic too.
You've got a bit of hook in your mouth now.
>>you must use the product before you can judge the effects on the quality of life.
So, by that logic... I should try hemlock and judge that it's a poison.
>> I am in no way a medical professional or a clinical specialist, but I know valid data when I see it and studied the body in several A & P college courses and Nutritional classes.
And that means that you know it's valid data? A few A&P courses? Right. Valid data = placebo controlled, double-blind study. Get me one of those and we'll talk.
