Article appeared in the Hippocrates Health Institute Newsletter Introduction The Hippocrates Health Institute has been the premiere leader in the field of natural and alternative health care and education since 1956. Deemed the world's number one teaching institute in the year 2000 by Spa Management Group, this historic and viable center was founded by visionary and humanitarian Ann Wigmore and is currently under the leadership of Brian Clement. The Institute has taught generations to draw from their vast inner resources the power to transform the quality of their lives. The Institute's goal is to reawaken the total consciousness within ourselves and allow us to realize that good health and free will is every person’s birthright, and that a life free of disease and needless pain is our human legacy. The Hippocrates philosophy is dedicated to the belief that a pure enzyme-rich diet, complemented by positive thinking and non-invasive therapies, are essential elements on the path to optimum health. Case Patrick is a 42 year old father of four who was recently told that he has seven golf ball sized inoperable cancerous tumors in his lungs. He was obviously stunned to learn that he had lung cancer, particularly because he has never smoked. The doctors told Patrick that chemotherapy and radiation treatments would be his only chance and that even these strong recommendations had no guaranteed results. One of our Health Educator Program graduates persuaded Patrick to try a new and revolutionary nutritional therapy. Glyconutrients. After three months large daily portions. Patrick's tumors were completely gone... and without the painful side effects of chemotherapy or radiation. Patrick is one over a million Americans who have discovered what Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) rates as one of the "Ten Emerging Technologies"... Glyconutrients. Glyconutrients are a special family of biological sugars that are now understood to be one of the keys to helping our immune system fight disease and resist aging. Because of modern farming techniques, these sugars are generally not available in our present day fruits and vegetables. Unlike common sugars such as fructose and sucrose, that are use to sweeten foods and beverages, glyconutrients are special carbohydrates that do not create an insulin reaction when taken. An example of one of them is glucosamine, which is typically used for pain and arthritic conditions. There are only eight of these Super Sugars, but only two of them can come in the form of supplementation, the other six must be synthesized by our body from normal blood sugar. However, medicine has discovered, if our body is unable to synthesize sufficient quantities of one or more of the other six sugars, our immune system will nor properly function and numerous diseases can develop. Deficiencies in some of these super sugars has been traced to the development of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and numerous autoimmune disease such as MS, arthritis, ALS, Crohn's disease, Parkinson's, Fibromyalgia, Lupus and irritable bowel syndrome. With this in mind, recent studies have shown that routine consumption of the glyconutrients (the ones that your body can't produce) will help the body rebuild its immune system and reverse certain health conditions. |
