Glyconutrients are the building blocks of cell to cell communication and help keep the body's processes running smoothly. These glyco nutrients are not widely available in our modern diet but there is a way to make sure that your body gets all the glyconutrients that it needs each day, drinking a small amount of goji juice each day. As little as an ounce can get your body back on track, leaving you feeling better and more energized than you have ever been.
The goji berry grows on the Lycium shrub, a spiny evergreen that grows mainly in the subtropical regions of the earth, is the main ingredient in goji juice. Each liter of goji juice contains about two pounds of these amazing berries that are thought to be important to a healthy, long life. This concentration is why it takes so little to make sure your body gets the glyconutrients that it needs to stay healthy.
Glyconutrients are eight specific sugars or saccharides which help form essential compounds called glycoproteins in the body. Glycoproteins such as digestive enzymes and natural antibodies are sugar molecules which are attached to protein molecules. Glycoproteins help with cell to cell communication, which is essential for good health. Goji juice can give your body all eight glyconutrients in just a few ounces of delicious juice.
The result of modern food processing and marketing practices is that only two of the glyco nutrient sugars are eaten regularly in a typical diet. Widespread practices of growing crops in soils that have been stripped of important minerals, harvesting fruits and vegetables before they ripen, and extensive use of food preservatives have altered the nutrients we take in, even when we eat what we believe to be a 'healthy diet".
Of the essential glyconutrients, we get Glucose from table sugar and Galactose from dairy products in our diets today. Since the other six of the eight glyco nutrients isn't normally eaten in our diet the body must create the glyconutrients through a chain of enzymatic and chemical reactions. These reactions can rob us of the vitality and energy that help us feel well and fight off disease. Glyconutrient rich goji juice can give our body what it needs so that we feel healthier and our body functions as it should.
Many people report more restful sleep and have more energy when they wake in the mornings after adding goji juice to their diet. A lifting of depression is not uncommon, and is a great reason to try goji juice to supplement the glyconutrients missing from your diet. Much better than swallowing a handful of pills every day to sleep better and feel better, though if you are on prescription medication you should always consult your doctor before discontinuing any medication.
If you have been feeling run down and older than your years, it couldn't hurt to try a little goji juice added to your diet plan. It might give your body what it has been missing - glyconutrients. They can help your body feel good again!
