Everybody has natural killer cells that identify and kill tumour cells and cells infected with viruses or some type of fungi or bacteria. The body has the genetic capacity to defend itself against viruses and bacterium, to cleanse itself of destructive toxins, to absorb and utilize nutrients for fuel, and to heal itself from damage or disease.

Healthy bodies must have accurate biochemical, direct cell-to-cell communication l to function correctly. All body functions require cellular communication. Cells communicate by using glycoproteins made up of various sugar molecules known as saccharides. Some of the connections for the saccharides are to lipids, forming glycolipids. These chains extend off the surface of every cell and can change thousands of times in a second. Cells actually touch each other to communicate by reading each other's cell surface messages. Disease and dysfunction occurs when the components necessary for cell-to-cell communication are absent.

Essential 8 required for good health.
Eight specific carbohydrates (saccharides) represent the key to cellular communication as these sugars combine with proteins to create the glycoprotein chemical messengers. Only two of the eight are commonly found in our typical modern diets: glucose and galactose. The other sugars are Mannose, Fucose, Xylose, N-Acetylglucosamine, N-Acetylgalactosamine, and N-Acetylneuraminic acid. The body has the potential to convert glucose and galactose to the other six through enzyme exchanges but the conversion process requires considerable energy and is susceptible to interference from disease processes, medications and free radicals. Oxidative damage from free radicals can also cause destruction of existing glycoprotein structures, making it necessary to convert some sugars into others to repair the damage. Living in our current environment, our bodies simply cannot keep up with this conversion/repair process. Further validation of the essential nature of these carbohydrates can be found in an article about the immune-enhancing benefits of breastfeeding.7 Five of the eight carbohydrates thought to be essential for cell-to-cell communication are ingredients in human breast milk and also in the glyconutrients

Molasses, Garlic and Aloe Vera  can be used to supplement the additional sugars required.
