The Beta Glucan Benefit

What is Beta Glucan?

Beta-glucans are a type of polysaccharide (carbohydrate) like starch, cellulose, or glycogen. They are commonly found in cereal grains like barley and oats, in baker’s yeast, and many kinds of mushrooms. Science indicates that beta-glucans are powerful prebiotics that promote health in many important ways. Beta Glucans have been studied for their positive effect on stimulating immune system response and lowering cholesterol levels3.

Health Benefits of Beta Glucan

Immune System Response
  • Research conducted over the past 40 years has found that the inclusion of Beta Glucan in supplements may be able to stimulate cellular immunity, regulate diabetes, stimulate wound healing, reduce stress, and inhibit the development of cancer. Beta Glucan enhances the response of the innate and adaptive immune system, with enhancement of the macrophage, neutraphil and mononuclear cells1.
  Reduce Cholesterol
  • There are two types of Beta Glucan, soluble and insoluble, because of this, they are able to interact with the lipids and salts in the bowel and help to reduce cholesterol.2, 4.
No adverse effects have been reported following the consumption of a diet rich in Beta Glucan
