CETYLMYRISTOLEATE:
At room temperature cetylmyristoleate is a liquid wax.
It can be digested only in the alkaline environment of the small intestine.
Cetylmyristoleate is a large molecule. These molecules have a strong affinity
for each other and tend to clump together in large impenetrable masses. This
results in a very small surface area relative to its weight and volume. Only the
surfaces are exposed to the digestive process. Since that is only a very small
percentage of the whole, very little gets digested, giving unaltered
cetylmyristoleate a very low level of bioavailability. This is true of virtually
all waxes. Fecal analysis indicates that they pass through the digestive system
virtually undigested.
CMO
To get an efficient and effective orally administered product, it
was essential to raise the digestibility and resultant bioavailability of
cetylmyristoleate. Consequently, we had to develop proprietary processing
methods. The resulting product, now a waxy solid rather than a liquid, was
appropriately named CMOtm. There is a very important difference between the
liquid form and the solid form. As a solid, CMOtm now resembles a crystalline
structure that shatters in the alkaline confines of the small intestine. These
shattered particles form a netlike mesh with enormous surface areas, allowing
immensely greater digestive efficiency. Furthermore, the reticulated cleavage
faces range between 0.9 and 1.0 microns in diameter, which assesses biological
uptake mechanisms not available to either larger or smaller particles. Research
shows that the body is 40 to 200 times more receptive to particles of this size.
This is what makes CMOtm much more bioavailabe and effective than other
products. And it is our exclusive proprietary processing methods that make it
so.
CETYLMYRISTATE:
It's pathetic that we even have to bother with this one.
Myristate, as opposed to myristoleate, has virtually no immunomodulatory
properties. Thus, it has essentially no effect on arthritis or any other
autoimmune disease. The best that promoters of these products (often as cheap as
$3.00-$4.00 a bottle wholesale) can come up with to describe their stuff is
something like "a free floating myristate." Nobody here can figure out what that
means. And the producers won't clarify. If you can figure it out, please clue us
in.
A NOTE ON "VEGETABLE" SOURCES:
The biochemist's bible, Baily's
Industrial Oil and Fat Products, Fifth Edition, Volume 1, Edible Oil and Fat
Products, clearly lists only four sources for myristoleic acid, the substance
needed to produce any form of myristoleate, including cetymyristoleate. Those
sources are beef tallow, butterfat, chicken fat, and sheep tallow. Period! Its
extensive listings clearly show that there are NO VEGETABLE SOURCES, not even
coconut or soybean oil as some have tried to claim. Any claim that
cetylmyristoleate can come from a vegetable source is fraudulent.
A CAUTION ABOUT SYNTHETIC PRODUCTS:
Synthetically produced
cetylmyristoleate contains a large amount, probably 50% of trans type
cetylmyristoleate. The trans type molecule is unnatural to the body and causes
physical damage by disrupting cellular membranes. Even in some so-called
"natural" products there remains a trace of toxic residue left from harsh
processing. Because it is a completely natural product, CMO has absolutely no
trans molecules, and there is no toxic residue because no toxic substances are
used in any stage of its processing.
The CM from Neways is totally natural and has no toxic residues..
