Default Trehalose

Trehalose is found in Life Enhancement's product called FoldRight.
Who knows? It might be helpful.

Here is the manufacturer's information:

Life extension scientists Durk Pearson & Sandy Shaw’s new nutritional drink mix, FoldRight™, helps to refold the proteins on which life depends, in ways that enhance health! FoldRight brings together what may be the most important natural chemical “chaperones” recognized to help achieve the proper form and function of your body’s proteins. FoldRight brings together what may be the most important natural chemical “chaperones” recognized to help achieve the proper form and function of your body’s proteins. FoldRight contains organic osmolytes, such as the amino acids proline, glycine, and beta-alanine, along with the nutrients inositol, betaine (trimethylglycine), taurine, and creatine, which are also osmolytes, and now the disaccharide trehalose, which is also an osmolyte. FoldRight goes where no nutritional formulation has ever gone before! Osmolytes are necessary for protein stability and to help maintain proteins in a correctly folded state. They preserve stability by keeping protein-denaturing ingredients (such as urea) away from the proteins’ surface, acting as chaperones to protect against contact with these denaturing agents, while not themselves interfering with protein/solvent (water) interactions. The osmolytes selected for the FoldRight “cocktail” are naturally found in living tissues in substantial quantities, are readily available, have been used safely in relatively large amounts as supplements or as components of foods for long periods of time, and are reasonably inexpensive." -
