I recently focused on a study about Acemannan and Glutathione and I hope you have viewed it, But then I realized that I had in my archives another study that was published by some of the same PhD’s one year previous. Let me get some of the data in front of you.
In a recent video on Acemannan and Glutathione we looked at a study called Protection from Glutathione Depletion by a Glyconutritional Mixture of Saccharides. The PhD’s that did this study are here: Busbee; Barhoumi; Burghardt; Gauntt; McAnalley; McDaniel.
Then I found a study that four of these same PhD’s did a year earlier (1998): Barhoumi; Burghardt; Busbee, McDaniel. That study is called Glyconutrients Increase Reduced Glutathione (R-GtH) Levels in Murine Liver Cells. Murine is a reference to rodents. Sorry, the graphics are not as pristine as I would like. I extracted this from a smartphone picture sent to me by Sam Caster. This particular study is very similar, though much shorter, and obviously the second study, that I have already created a video about, was more thorough and much more detailed, but there is one experimental result from this shorter study I wanted to make sure people knew about. This is a quick update. It won’t take long.
Simply stated: They took rat liver cells and placed them in a regular nutrient mix (this is what is called a medium, and is understood as in vitro). They measured the glutathione (remember, that’s the antioxidant that your body produces naturally, though it decreases with age) that was naturally occurring in those liver cells, represented by the bar labeled as A in the graph. They then added Acemannan (which is referred to as glyconutritional treatment) and in 300 seconds (5 minutes) the Glutathione had increased in those liver cells in a petri dish by 50%. Represented by the bar labeled as B in the graph. Of course, if you’ve been paying attention to my presentation of these studies this is typical to what Acemannan brings to the table.
What was also included in this shorter study was the experiment they ended up repeating in the next study (in 1999) and which you can view in the video I sent earlier. But let me give a quick recap but add the one little thing they mentioned.
They treated rat liver cells with Patulin alone (remember Patulin is a toxic substance) and, as you see, this toxin had done its damage by depleting Glutathione. As it says in this shorter study the Patulin decreased the glutathione “to virtually an undetectable level.” So that makes it obvious how toxic it was. Another group of cells were treated with both Acemannan AND Patulin, and again we see the dynamics of Acemannan at work to bring Glutathione levels upward despite the presence of a toxin. And then finally a group of liver cells that were only treated with Acemannan, no Patulin this time, resulting in a significant increase in Glutathione. The one thing added to this shorter study was clear identification of the control medium, which the red dotted line represents. A control medium is often assumed in a study but it is the baseline against which the different variables are compared. In other words, this would represent the liver cells to which nothing was added, no Acemannan, no Petulin. These liver cells were left untouched, they were not manipulated in any way, and the measurement taken was the number against which the other measurements were compared.
Acemannan, the stabilized extract of the aloe vera plant, remains a breakthrough technology to this day. Its beneficial effects are numerous and diverse. The studies I expose and publish are only just a few that characterize Acemannan as the most studied natural molecule in the world. The PhD named as one of the authors in the study above, Bill McAnalley, one of the original patent holders of Acemannan stabilization wrote a book, drawing on 325 related studies.
