What is 1,3-1,6 Beta Glucan, and what does it do?
Our immune system holds the key to our health. It protects our body against viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites etc. It is a miraculous network of cells that recognise and destroy foreign invaders. Many individuals have compromised immune systems. These people in particular, and the rest of us at certain times during our lives, benefit from natural substances that help to prime and optimise our immune function.
1-3, 1-6 beta glucan is one of these, and has been hailed as the body’s ultimate self-defence mechanism. The immune priming and nutritional benefits of 1-3, 1-6 beta glucan have been investigated by many research laboratories since the 1940s, and there are now over 1,000 research papers that attest to its ability to prime and optimise function of the immune system in its totality.
Nature’s Own 1-3, 1-6 beta glucan is derived from the cell wall of bakers’ yeast. It is a pure extraction and does not contain enough yeast protein to cause an allergic reaction, even in yeast-sensitive individuals. Our beta glucan was part of an independent trial at Berlin University, which looked at the immune priming properties of many beta glucan products on the market. We are delighted to tell you that our product came out top in ability to prime and activate the immune system. This study is available on request for anyone who is interested.

• A safe and effective natural immune primer

who should consult their doctor before use
• May help reduce the symptoms of allergies, including hayfever
• Non allergenic
