Beta Glucan 1,3-1,6 (Yestimun) 200mg - 90 Capsules (High Strength)

Beta Glucan and Your HealthBeta Glucan is a supplement that I have come to learn about only recently. It is touted as a substance that speeds up wound healing and aids with liver problems. Since my skin used to get many infected lesions of eczema during break out times and since one of the causes of eczema is a congested liver, I have incorporated this supplement in my daily regimen and have seen excellent results with its intake.What is Beta Glucan?Technically, Beta Glucan is a carbohydrate made up of a string of glucose molecules that is highly refined with the fats and proteins removed. It is possible to extract Beta Glucan from other sources, such as oats, barley and certain mushrooms, but clinical trials have shown that Beta Glucan from baker’s yeast is the most effective of these in activating and supporting the immune response.Beta Glucan Creates Overall HealthHow does Beta Glucan help with our health? It all starts with the macrophage, a type of white blood cell that functions as a patrol cell and engulfs and kills foreign infectious invaders. Specialized versions of macrophages are found in almost every area of the body. Macrophages that are found in all parts of the skin are called “Langerhans” cells. They’re also referred to also as dendritic macrophages because dendrites - the spider web-like tentacles that emanate out of them - literally permeate throughout the body, almost like an intricate spider web or latticework, patrolling and engulfing foreign invaders. These tentacles serve as a source for where the macrophage's receptors can be stimulated. So when you take Beta Glucan it stimulates or activates these Langerhans cells. So, by taking Beta Glucan you are improving the ability of the immune cells to do their work in the body; therefore, leading to healthier you and enhanced healing.What is the Mechanism by Which Beta Glucan can Support Your Health?Human cells "stick together" because of a substance called collagen. It's the "glue" that binds the cells. When our body is faced with the sum total of all daily insults from chemicals, poor diet, etc., cells die. If our immune system is healthy, these dead cells are "unglued" from the collagen by an enzyme released from the macrophage, called collagenase. Then the phagocytes come in and "gobble up" the debris. This gives room for a new cells to grow in its place.When the immune system is functioning properly, the dead and damaged tissue is removed, there is rapid healing, and the result is a repaired area. The key to all this, again, is the healthy functioning of the macrophage. And one key substance to supporting the macrophage is Beta Glucan.Beta Glucan also reduces harmful bacteria. The intake of Beta Glucan reduces immune stress by improving the recognition capabilities of immune cells. Research indicate that Beta Glucan surrounds foreign molecules that invade us and process them out by metabolizing them. Beta Glucan naturally favors a non-inflammatory route of immunity because it cultivates more spontaneous recognition of intruders so that they are more quickly metabolized and eliminated before they can do any harm.How to Take Beta GlucanStart by taking one capsule on an empty stomach. Wait one hour before eating. Eventually increase to 2 a day until complete healing occurs. Maintenance is one capsule a day.

Only time will tell with the beta glucans but seem promising

The other review is very unfair - no mention of how effective the product is. Really seemed to help me stave off colds/infections when everyone around me was coming down with something. A couple of times I got the beginnings of a sore throat but it went away after a day (and I used to catch everything going) - I put this down to the beta glucans. A good alternative to the usual echinacea, high dose vitamin C etc that many people take (but don't seem to be that effective for me personally!)Also impressed that this company use no additives like magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide etc.

I was recommended this great immune support when treating my dog with liver cancer I use this alongside other supplements its the best immune support supplement by far, I also give it o my other dog as a daily supplement to keep him healthy, btw my spaniel was diagnosed with liver cancer last May only 20% of his liver was functioning he was given couple wks to live.....9 months on after treating him holistically with this supplement, and others, home cooked food, clean water he's amazing!!! Yes recommend it to all I speak to.

Really good product. Health leads are a great company as they don't use unhealthy fillers and they test their raw materials for contaminants. I find that this product is great at helping to fight off any infection, in combination with other key supplements.

For ingredients it says: Each vegetarian capsule contains: Beta Glucan 85%: 200mg Organic rice flour: 200mg - which is it? What is the organic rice flour about - what is it for. What size is each capsule 400 mg? Not at all clear this...
