I completely disagree with you. In this day and age we need certain glyco-nutrients in our body that is essential for healthy living. 90% of all prescription and other drugs just supress the symptoms when we are ill and does not find the cure to it. I would suggest you go to:

www.mannatech.com and www.glycoresearch.com before you tell others natural fruit and veg is enough. Sorry to disappoint u but it isn't. Especially since we do not know what we are eating nowadays with all the G.M food about.

I've heard from many sources that the Mannatech products have helped many people get better from being ill as we are indeed missing the right nutrients for our body in everyday life. Scientists have finally found the missing link. I urge you and others to look at the websites above.

ugh any college student with a decent and reliable bio book could prove you wrong. Not to mention that here is Bambi giving credible, not to mention knowledgeable advice and you keep spouting this mannatech stuff.
::sigh::
People will not learn.

You might also remember that people bought snake oil in the thought that it would heal them and I'm sure some were healed. The power of suggestion is great, but it's nothing more than suggestion and snake oil.

I am interested in the amounts of each mannatech product that you used and how you were able to get your 15 month old to take the product. My husband and I have been considering this product for 2 years now for our son that has cf.

to anonymous,
my son has been taking mannatech since he was diagnosed December 2004. He is now 17 months. Here is my secret for getting him the products...
For breakfast and dinner, I put 1/2 teaspoon ambrotose, 1 capsule Sport and half his serving of ADEK in some yogurt. Sometimes I add some sweet baby food. But he usually eats it on its own.
For lunch, I put 1/2 teaspoon ambrotose in milk (you have to stir it really well)
At his morning snack, I give him 1/4 teaspoon phytaloe in some peanut butter with a little added honey (made in my home town to help with any potential allergies, that Ethan might have).
I don't do any more than 1 serving of phytaloe, due to Ethan's bowels getting out of control from the fiber content.
I don't know what I would do without Mannatech. We have not had to increase his enzymes in months and I can't tell you the last time he was sick!!!
Let me know if you have any other questions.

I have just gotten word that Mannatech received their patent for their product August 16, 2005. I still have not formed an opinion on the products yet. I have someone pushing really hard for me to put my daughter on it. I appreciate the opinions here-pro and con. I think everyone should do what they feel in their heart. You can never go wrong that way.

Bambi,
People have also tried to convince me that Mannatech's products cure everything from Cystic Fibrosis to Down's Syndrome. As someone with training in Biology, I have also been extremely skeptical and couldn't find anything in the peer-reviewed literature. Promoters of the product (who incidentally also sell it) repeatedly tell me that the reason that Mannatech couldn't conduct a proper clinical trial is because they can't classify their product as a drug since it has no LD50 (the dosage point at which 50% of the animal population would die). My question to you is, doesn't everything have an LD50, no matter how beneficial it might be? I would think that sheer dehydration alone would kill 50% of the animal population at some point. I was under the impression that even something like table sugar (also not classified as a drug) has an LD50 (it's just quite high)? Thanks for your help, and thanks for voicing an informed opinion on this subject.

OK here goes. I am very new at this. I hope this does not come out like babble. Our grandson, who is now 7 months old was diagnosed with CF after he was born. (bowel obstrution etc, ) Since his CF has been more gastointestinal, he is having a problem gaining weight. He gains weight every month, and the doctors were happy, however this months check-up they are not as positve. I also type very slow, anyway, I am not sure of this product you are talking about, again we as a family our emmersing ourselves and trying to educate ourselves with this disease. We have a friend pushing a product called Re-liv. After talking with other CF people (that made great claims about the product, some sounded to good to be true) we have put our grandson on the product. At first it looked like it was helping. Now, after the last doctors visit I am not so sure. Is anyone familier with this product?

About Reliv - I believe you should talk with HollyCatheryn. She's on this forum and has a <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.geocities.com/MurrensNatureMama">website.</a>

Thank you, I visited the web site and have found it to be the same stories we have heard from others. Our grandson, has been on the Re-liv for 3 months. He is 7.5 months old. He seems fine in regards to , no colds other bugs, etc. The biggest problem we have is sometimes it seems the CF clinic is how do I say this, "not on the ball" Our kids seem frustrated because the clinic is only open one day a week. This has nothing to do with my question about Re-liv. I am trying to encourage them to talk with others about their frustrations. Hopfully I can get my daughter to login to this site and talk with people.

Hi Leanne,

I'm sorry this reply has been so long in coming, but I haven't been on the forum for a few weeks.

You're right that the LD50 issue is a red herring. For one thing, yes, everything (even pure water) should have an LD50. For another, the people making this argument seem not even to understand what a clinical trial involves. <u>Clinical</u> refers to trials in people, for whom (thank goodness) no one is going to determine an LD50. And if Mannatech is already providing people with its products (for a price), why on earth shouldn't it be able to provide the same products to people under the controlled conditions of a clinical trial? Especially when the CF Foundation has offered to help with the design and funding of such a trial. If curcumin and DHA can and should be subject to clinical trials, so should Mannatech's products.

I hope this helps.

Do you still feel strongly that "glyconutrients" are a waste of time and money?<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">

i know lots of people that have seen awesome results from taking glyconutrients. one of my best friends got over her m.s. cause her cells now communicate. many cancer stories etc. I found a powerfull retrospective study conducted in Germany with glyconutrients. Most of those in the study found a large benefit from using glyconutrients. I noticed that someone with a big "PhD" assumed this was a snake oil remedy but they are obvioulsy blind of the fact that Pharmaceutical drugs are hardly ever proven to be helpful. Havent you read the article that was published on how much of a fraud that new "diet pill" is ? most drugs are passed by moneygrubbing corperations as to make profits. how could anyone support an evil system like western medicine and denounce harmless remedies like glyconutrients? Keep in mind that Dr. John Rollins who was the Lead Patent Officer in the US patent office spoke in an interview and said that glyconutrients was by far the most impressive composition that he had ever wittnessed go through the patent office. He has been the patent officer for 20 years or so and had seen every drug and natural remedy that exists. afrter 9 years of sudies he says this to be one of the greatest discoveries of the 21st cent.
if you want relevent articles from magazines and or other information i'll be happy to send it to you!!! just let me know.
