The surface of cells and organelles are covered with the substrates which made of glycoprotein. The function of substrates to be equal to human senses and extremities.
　　The substrates administer the message passing and communication of cell activity.
　　The carbohydrare of glycoprotein is composed by 8 kinds of monosaccharide. In the background of good-health and acceptable stress, cells can positively transform eight kinds of monosaccharides from glucose.
　　When animals encounter stresses, toxicant or be infected, the amount of essential monosaccharide is not enough to supply to the body. At this time, we need to resupply essential monosaccharide from food to avoid getting sick.
　　Glyconutrients not only supply the eight kinds of essential monosaccharides.
The sort of monosaccharides by the message of sugar code affect the strength and the speed of physiology activity.
Figure 1. The eight kinds of primary monosaccharides and sources of glyconutrient.
