Mucopolysaccharides, "MPS," for Natural Health

A key factor in human metabolism, growth and health is a group of complex carbohydrates called mucopolysaccharides, (MPS). MPS are long chain amino sugars with active sulfate and amino molecules along the multiple polysaccharide chains, usually combined with a core protein.

Because of their structure and ionic charge, MPS play a vital role in the integrity of the body at the cellular level, particularly in organs, loose connective tissue and joints. Among other functions, they help modulate the bio-exchange of the inter-cellular matrix, the gel-like spaces that hold the water of the body, where oxygen and nutrients are transferred to the individual cells, and metabolites removed. MPS have been described as  “The Glue of Life.”
