Scientific Evidence To Support The Use of Ambrotose

As much as I love the Internet, one of its weaknesses is that anyone with an opinion can create an online presence and act like an expert.

This is a dangerous phenomenon for the wellness industry.

Always remember when making wellness decisions to listen to reliable sources for information.

Here are some scientific studies that support the use of Mannatech Ambrotose, the patented glyconutrient formula that supports cellular communication and proper bodily function.

Please note: all of these are double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, which achieve a higher standard of scientifier rigour. Some of these studies were funded in part by Mannatech, often through the donation by Mannatech of the products used.

• Drs. Chenghua Wang (Rotman Research Institute, Toronto, Canada), Joanne Szabo (University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, ARK) and Roscoe Dykman (Arkansas Children’s Nutrition Center, Little Rock, ARK) showed, in a study of 20 healthy adults, that a one tablespoon serving of Ambrotose® complex powder enhanced brainwave frequencies known to be associated with attention or alertness
• Drs. Chenghua Wang and R.T. Pivik (University of Arkansas, Little Rock, ARK) showed, in a study of 20 healthy adults, that a one tablespoon serving of Ambrotose® complex powder improved mental reaction time and enhanced concentration
• Dr. Talitha Best (Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia) showed that, in a trial of 45 middle-aged male and female subjects, a single 7 gram serving of Ambrotose® complex powder improved memory.
• Dr. Talitha Best (Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia) showed, in a trial of 109 healthy middle-aged male and female adults, that Ambrotose® complex powder (4 grams/day for 12 weeks) significantly improved memory and improved psychological well-being
• Drs. Atiya N. Stancil and Leslie H. Hicks, both of Howard University in Washington, D.C., published this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study investigating the impact of Ambrotose® complex on the brain function of 62 healthy young adults. The study showed that a single, one-tablespoon serving of Ambrotose complex significantly improved visual discrimination and working memory

Why Ambrotose? The Benefits of Glyconutrients

Here are some of the reasons why glyconutrients are a vital supplement for everyone who cares about their wellbeing.

1.The Royal Society of Medicine, London, England presented glyconutrient technology to their top scientists.

After the presentation, John Axford, BSC, MD, FRCP, President of the Section of Clinical Immunology and Allergy at the Royal Society of Medicine, and a Fulbright Scholar, was so impressed with the information that he researched glyconutrients and decided to join the board of Mannatech - the company who hold the patent for glyconutrient supplements. Nobody from the Royal Society of Medicine has ever done this with a nutritional company before. John Axford has written two best-selling medical textbooks, written over fifty reviewed papers and over one hundred published medical abstracts. He also sits on the board of three prestigious medical journals.

This man would not risk his reputation by joining a nutritional supplement company unless he was entirely convinced that glyconutrients were an important discovery.

2. MIT - Massachusetts Institute of Technology - annual review magazine called, "Technology Review"

The front cover of the Feb. 2003 issue stated: "10 Emerging Technologies that WILL change the world!"

Glycomics (the study of glyconutrients) was listed among the 10. It went on to say, "The reason for the excitement around glycomics is that sugars have a vital, albeit often overlooked, function in the body. The medical potential is absolutely enormous."

No other nutritional supplement in the world has ever been listed as having a technology that WILL change the world by MIT.

3. Glyconutrient science presented at the 8th Annual World Congress on Medicine Dec. 2003, held in Geneva, Switzerland and sponsored by the United Nations.

Glyconutrients are the only nutritional supplement in the world that has been presented at the World Congress.

4. An interview with Dr. Ben Carson, the world famous director of pediatric neuro-surgery at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, by Dallas Weekly Magazine, Feb 2004 issue.

Dr. Carson has been named by both CNN and Time Magazine as one of the top 20 doctors in America. Dr. Carson has experienced an amazing change in his quality of life by using glyconutrients.

Dr. Carson made this statement: "The science made sense to me. God gave us in plants what we need to remain healthy. In today's world our food chain is depleted of nutrients and our environment has helped destroy what God gave us. I do not see glyconutrients as unnatural. I see them as complementary to traditional medicine. Dietary supplements should become an integral part of health care in this country."

No other nutritional supplement has been heralded by a doctor of such standing.

5. An article by Dr. John Rollins, a former high-ranking, award-winning United States Patent and Trademark official, was published in the Aug. 2004 issue of the Atlanta Voice Newspaper titled, "Disruptive Technology Brings Hope to Healthcare".

The Atlantic Voice asked him, "During your 20-year career in the US Patent Office, did you examine any single discovery in bio-affecting compositions that stood out above the rest in its potential to impact the future of health?"

Dr. Rollins answered, "Yes! There have been many significant discoveries, but one stands head and shoulders above the rest; the discovery of a new category of vital nutrients called glyconutrients. This discovery might provide the single biggest opportunity to impact health from both ends of the spectrum. First, glyconutrients are essential for normal defense functions, making them one of the best strategies for reducing the risk of disease. Second, they are also necessary to support the normal functions of repair, making them one of the most critical strategies for supporting the body's normal healing functions. This is one of the most important discoveries of the 21st Century.”

No other nutritional supplement in the world has ever been talked about by anyone from the US Patent Office as one of the most important discoveries of the 21st Century.

6. MIT's Annual Emerging Technologies Conference (Sept. 2004).

Glyconutrient science was presented here by Mannatech - the company who hold the patent for this technology; the first time a nutritional supplement company has been asked to speak among the top innovators at this historic conference.

No other nutritional supplement developers in the world has been asked to speak at an MIT Annual Emerging Technology Conference.

7. Congressional Hearing: November 14, 2001 on Comprehensive Medical Care for Bioterrorism Exposure.

Dr. Reginald McDaniel, who is co-author on the patent for glyconutrients, was the only person from a nutrition company asked by Congress to speak.

At the Congressional meeting on Bioterrorism, Dr. McDaniel explained that the front line defense against bio-terrorism is a strong immune system and that only glyconutrients can provide that kind of protection.

Since speaking, glyconutrients are sweeping the capitol and many Senators and Congressmen are now taking glyconutrients. No other nutritional company in the world has ever been asked to speak before Congress on Bioterrorism.

8. Dr Bill McAnalley, who is also co-author on the patent for glyconutrients, was invited to speak at the United States Patent Office, because of the unique filing on patented nutrients.

No other nutrition company in the world has ever been asked to present to the US Patent Office.

9. Proevity Continuing Education Group gives CME’s to doctors on the science of glycomics.

Doctoral candidates are doing their research at the labs where the glyconutrient complex was developed. No other company in the world is awarding Continuing Education Credits for a technology they discovered and patented.

10. Roller-compaction technology protects the integrity of the ingredients, making it more efficacious and bio-available.

Oxidation is a problem in other nutritional supplements and roller-compaction, in essence, encapsulates the active ingredients to help prevent oxidation. Oxidation is what causes a product to spoil and lose its potency. Other companies use products that have fillers that are used to facilitate the production process. However, by "roller-compacting" the ingredients, what is created is a product that flows through the production process.

Fillers also pose another problem. Some people are allergic to certain fillers. Every time companies add a filler to a nutritional supplement they increase the number of people who may have an allergy to the product. By eliminating the fillers, it eliminates potential allergens.

Additionally, roller- compacting will reduce the size of the capsule, caplet or pill which makes it easier to swallow -- a challenge especially for women who have smaller throats. No other company in the world has their entire product line using this technology at this time. Patented glyconutrient supplements are benefited by this technology.



As the above facts illustrate, glyconutrients are an exciting development that are changing lives across the world.

Glyconutrients: Healthy Cells Make Healthy Bodies

For thousands of years, people have turned to the healing properties of plants to improve their health. Through trial and error within communities, these plants were then either added to people’s daily diets, or used when necessary to combat particular symptoms.

To this day, scientists are still researching and working with plants from around the world and making them available via health supplements to the global community. A well known example of this modern practice is Aloe Vera, a plant that has been recognised as offering medicinal benefits for centuries.

For some time Aloe Vera was considered to just be fiber, which would explain its relevance to the gastro intestinal system, but no further benefits. This belief was shattered in the 1980s when Dr Bill McAnalley, a PhD pharmacologist, discovered that the key active ingredient within Aloe Vera was actually a polysaccharide.

This explained why Aloe Vera offers such wide health benefits, and Dr McAnalley began researching other polysaccharides for similar results. He identified a further seven polysaccharides that are used by the body to enable individual cells to communicate. The body’s every communication, instruction and requirement is expressed via chains of these eight polysaccharides, which Dr McAnalley termed ‘glyconutrients’.

Given an adequate supply of glyconutrients, our body is able to communicate its every need – including change of temperature, alerting the body that a threat (a virus or enemy cell) has been located, and identifying that another cell is friendly and not a threat. This is the basic process that allows the body to function and remain healthy.

Dr McAnalley discovered, however, that glyconutrients cannot be produced by the body itself and must therefore be provided through diet. However, many of the eight polysaccharides that combine to form the glyconutrient chain are sourced from plant gums and algae that are not present in most people’s diets.

It was therefore discovered that supplementing these polysaccharides is vital. Dr McAnalley developed a correctly balanced glyconutrient complex called Ambrotose, which has been granted over 40 patents worldwide. Each patent demonstrates that the country or area in which it was granted recognises that Ambrotose contains the correct balance of glyconutrients and that glyconutrients are necessary for cell-to-cell communication within the body.

Ambrotose does not claim to fight any particular diseases or health problems. Rather, it focuses on enabling the body to do what it would naturally do in an ideal world free from pollution, poor quality food and chemical farming. Taking Ambrotose every day will improve your body’s basic functioning by enabling each cell to communicate its needs consistently.

Ambrotose is a supplement that I use every day religiously, and I recommend that all of my clients (whatever their current state of health) do the same. I have personally used Ambrotose for three years. If you'd like to know more about my firsthand experiences of using Ambrotose, you can contact me at katiektk@hotmail.co.uk

Alternatively, you can learn more about Ambrotose, or place an order.

Please note: the prices on this website are in US Dollars. Ambrotose is available in all countries; if you are outside the US, please leave your details and I will get back to you with pricing details for your country.

To your wellbeing
