What makes mannose different from other sugars?

A review published in The FEBS Journal examines mannose metabolism, including its role in glycosylation and the way different cells process mannose.

The review also explores experimental research into mannose and cancer cell metabolism, including the role of the enzyme mannose phosphate isomerase (MPI). Importantly, these findings are primarily based on laboratory and animal studies, so further research is needed to understand their relevance to humans.

Mannose is also part of Dr. Coy’s Sugar Family, reflecting the different biological roles that individual sugars can have.

🍝 A classic pasta dish... reimagined.

The Dr. Coy Principle isn't about giving up your favourite meals—it's about making smarter choices.

A healthier approach could look like:
🍗 Choosing crispy chicken coated in an almond flour crust instead of breadcrumbs
🥒 Replacing white pasta with fresh zucchini noodles (courgetti)
🍅 Opting for a homemade tomato and herb sauce instead of one with processed ingredients
🥗 Adding roasted vegetables and a fresh side salad
💧 Replacing a sugary soft drink with sparkling water with lemon

By choosing more **Green Light Foods** and limiting **Red Light Foods**, you can enjoy satisfying meals while supporting better metabolic health.

Small changes can make a big difference over time.

Healthy skin starts from within.

Your skin reflects more than your skincare routine, it can also reflect what's happening inside your body.

When blood sugar levels are frequently elevated, they can contribute to the formation of **Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs)** compounds created when excess sugar reacts with proteins in the body. Over time, AGEs can damage cells, reduce skin elasticity, and contribute to the visible signs of ageing.

Supporting stable blood sugar levels isn't just about metabolic health, it's also about protecting your body at a cellular level.

Sugar is often spoken about as if it’s a single ingredient, but that’s far from the full picture.

There are many different types of sugars, each with its own chemical structure and metabolic pathway. Understanding these differences is key to having a more informed conversation about food, nutrition and ingredient innovation.

Explore our website to discover more about low GI sugars and the science behind them.

A reworked fast-food meal could look like:
🥬 A lettuce wrap in place of a burger bun

💧 Sparkling water with lemon instead of a sugary soft drink

Small changes can add up over time.

Trehalose is gaining attention in scientific research for far more than its sweetness. Naturally found in mushrooms, yeast and other organisms, this stable disaccharide is being studied for its unique ability to protect and stabilise biological systems, from cells to proteins.

Early research is exploring how its structure may influence everything from food technology to cellular resilience, opening the door to new applications across nutrition, health and biotechnology.

Did you know the keto diet can help make cancer therapies more effective?

Before starting chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment, Dr. Coy recommends going on a keto diet. By depleting sugar stores, you shift the body's energy metabolism, starving cancer cells of glucose.
