1 3 Beta Glucan

1 3 beta glucan is commonly referred to as Beta glucan. Beta glucan is classified as an immunomodulator. An immunomodulator has the ability to regulate the immune system. Beta glucan can be derived from many sources, including bakers yeast, mushrooms, barley and oats. Each source provides for different beneficial properties.

Barley and oats have been shown to support cardiovascular health while bakers yeast derived Beta glucan has been proven to provide immune support benefits as well as cardiovascular related benefits.

The market is awash in Beta glucan products leading the prospective customer questioning what determines a good beta glucan product from a bad one.

First the customer must determine what benefits they wish to achieve, then they must locate which product has been independently tested to provide the results the potential customer seeks. To learn more on how to compare products click here.

One of the scams going is the push for "micronization," i.e. the claim that in order for Beta glucan to be effective it must must be made as small and as seperated as possible. Recent testing conducted at the University of Louisville has proven the micronization theory on Beta 1 3 glucan false.
