Measuring specific sugars on the surface of cells is the future of diagnostic medicine because that will determine how healthy the cells are. Counting these different sugars that are the building blocks for glycoprotein receptor sites is the latest breakthrough in GLYCOMICS. A new sugar counting method can lead to developing wellness biomarkers. Determine the health of your cells and you determine your wellness. The number of glycoproteins on the surface of a cell indicates the health of the cell. This test may provide the data for discovering if a person has early stages of cancer or potentially any other disease. Cancer is the first disease to be diagnosed with this new test. The reason cancer is the first of many tests is that we have known for years that cancer cells are not covered with the glycoprotein receptor sites like healthy cells. The ability to count these sugars on the cells is paramount in early detection of diseases.

A new fast-advancing dementia has just been discovered with additional symptoms such as the loss of the ability to speak and move. Misfolded proteins wreak havoc with the brain. Neurodegenerative diseases are caused by these misshaped proteins. Healthy glycoproteins make possible the communication for all cells. Glycomics is the OS (operating system) for the genome. Vital sugars are the building blocks for glycoproteins. Unhealthy cells are vulnerable to fast decay.

New Fast-Advancing Dementia Discovered in US

A new form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) may have been uncovered in a handful of patients in the US.

It is a well known medical fact that it is the toxic beta amyloid 40 and 42 protein that destroys vital connections in brain cells that causes Alzheimer’s.  It is also a well known scientific fact that a highly functional immune system can prevent Alzheimer’s.  I am delighted to see scientists all over the world working to prevent, delay, or totally cure Alzheimer’s.  The more information we can gather, the better the opportunity to prevent, delay, or cure this awful brain disease.  Out of the UK comes this report of a possible tomato “vaccine” that could prevent Alzheimer’s.  The results seem to be quite similar to the paper about the healthful sugar trehalose altering the gene expression of the beta amyloid 40 and 42 protein in an animal study.

Physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and a broad range of healthcare professionals have completed our Continuing Medical Education training in glycomics.  Doctors from an impressive number of countries in addition to professionals from Canada and throughout the United States have participated.   It is the objective of The Endowment for Medical Research to educated the professional and general public in the science of glycomics.  While the CME and CEU credits have expired, the same fourteen hour DVD Glycomics Series is still available at a $100 discount in our store front at www.endowmentmed.org.  The science of glycomics is growing at such a rapid rate that there are now 463,471 references posted on the National Library of Medicine website at www.pubmed.gov for glycoprotein.

Today an online pharmacy posted an outstanding article on the boosting of your immune system with glycomics.

Here is their article:

The link between diabetes and dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other neurodegenerative diseases continues to be verified.  The unhealthy meals, the harmful sugars are the supply line to feed diabetes, obesity, dementia, and Alzheimer’s .  We may treat diabetes every way known to man, but we must interrupt the pipeline of junk foods entering the body and replace these with the good stuff.  Here at The Endowment for Medical Research, we continue to receive good reports from diabetics who have replaced the harmful sugar with the healthful sugar trehalose.  More information continues to be posted on our education outreach website at  www.endowmentmed.org/

The following report is published in the July 2008 Nutrition Research.

Delaying, preventing, or curing movement disorders in Huntington’s and Parkinson’s patients is the quest of neurologists and clinicians.  I believe the pathway for improving neurodegenerative diseases is improved brain function through glycomics.  We have discovered that specific sugars can delay, perhaps prevent, and we are hopeful that future studies will reveal that indeed that these life dehabilitating challenges can be cured. Evidence based nutrition or evidence based medicine is our focus.

While the Mission Statement at The Endowment for Medical Research is to improve brain function in children and adults without drugs or harmful side effects, our two follow up statements are DO NO HARM and WHAT EVER WORKS.  That is why we want to keep you informed about what others are doing.  Our website at www,endowmentmed.org/ is part of our educational thrust for physicians and the general public.

Here is today’s report.
