Glyconutrients & Human Breast Milk

Breast Milk and Glyconutrients

by LARRY on AUGUST 4, 2011 · LEAVE A COMMENT

Multiple studies have documented breast fed babies having stronger immune systems, better intestinal health, brain development and cognitive abilities than formula-fed babies. Human breast milk contains 5 of the 8 biologically active beta bonded sugars (glyconutrients) which were originally thought to be of no benefit to the body. (Lactose [galactose/glucose], glucosamine, sialic acid, fucose.)

One third of the milk solids in human breast milk are these sugars. That is a higher percentage than even protein content. If breast milk taken orally benefits babies so dramatically, then these sugars supplemented orally should also benefit adult health!
