Beta 1, 3 Glucan 50 mg
Description: Only recently has western science begun toinvestigate those mushrooms recognized through the millennia for their medicinal properties. Beta 1,3glucans isolated from these medicinal mushrooms are thought to have a significant effect on the immunesystem's functionality. The beta glucans' modulation of the immune system may be mediated by alteredactivity of macrophages and T cells, elicited by the production and expression of various cytokines.Research has shown that some of these medicinal mushrooms possess immunomodulatory propertiesthat may provide improved functional defenses against microorganisms.
The glucose polymers of mushrooms have also been shown to promote the growth of beneficial, probioticstrains of intestinal bacteria. Dietary beta-glucans, e.g. from oat fiber, have been also been shown toimprove lipid profiles related to cardiovascular health.
