Beta Glucan Supplement

Do you find trendy diets a fad or do they have real health benefits….?

1. POMEGRANATE: If you’re going to have a martini, at least make it a pomegranate one. This fall fruit has higher antioxidant activity than red wine and green tea.

2. KIWIFRUIT: Don’t judge this fruit by its cover: Under that bristly brown peel you’ll find a bright green star bursting with antioxidants and full of fiber.

3. BARLEY: When some whole grains, such as wheat and oats, are processed, they lose their fiber content. Not so with barley, which is full of soluble beta-glucan fiber in its whole kernel or refined flour form.

What is your favorite health food that you eat at least once, maybe twice, a day…fruits, vegetable, cereal, drink, etc…?

Do you Supplement your eating habits with vitamins/minerals?

First off – I always supplement with complex vitamins and minerals. The thoughts that this is 100% of ____ -the daily requirement is a joke. We’re not sure exactly how much each individual needs due to the vast differences in our systems and in our general health. So get a good multi vitamin. It will bolster your system and help to keep you healthy enough to fight off whatever bug is coming your way.

My favorite health food is whole wheat pasta. Great taste, fills you up and is very healthy, a great fiber source. Second,
I find yougurt is a good milk substitute and it almost seems like it is a dessert.

Finally, a combo of dried apricots/cranberries/blueberries mixed with nuts and added to my yougurt. Heavenly

Some diet fads offer 1 or 2 things that are really good – you just have to look at it very carefully.

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.

Maitake Bio-Beta-Glucan by Nature’s Answer – 1 oz. $24.99 A very special mushroom, Maitake, is both delicious and highly medicinal. Maitake is indigenous to the northeastern area of Japan, where it has long been used as both food and medicine. It can weigh over 100 pounds in the wild and grows at the foot of oak trees. The name ?Maitake? means, ?dancing mushrooms?. It has no caps, but is rippled in appearance ? a look which earned the plant its name. Other stories say that people who found it growing in the wild would ?dance with joy? because of its highly perceived value. Maitake derived its genus and species name, Grifolia frondosa, from Italy, where it is prized as a delicacy. In mythology, the ?Grifolia? is a half eagle, half lion beast. It?s interesting to note that both the lion and the eagle are associated in cultures around the world with strength and wisdom, two of the health benefits traditionally attributed to Maitake. Cultivation of Maitake began in the 1980?s. Today it is available exclusively from Nature?s Answer® as a liquid herbal extract dietary supplement called Maitake Bio-Beta-Glucan™ (alcohol-free). We use the finest quality organic Maitake mushrooms from Japan. These mushrooms grow under special conditions, ensuring the high presence of beta-glucans, the mushroom?s highly active ingredient. The benefits of Maitake Bio-Beta-Glucan™ may be maximized by combining it with Nature?s Answer®?s Maitake Fruiting Body & Mycelia, or with the whole mushroom. Suggested Use: Take 1 mL three times daily. Ingredients: Maitake mushroom fruiting bodies extract 50 mg + guaranteed to contain a minimum of…14 mg of Beta-1, 6-glucan with Beta-1, 3-branches.

MegaFood’s Immune Strength Glucan Formula 60Caps $104.5 Maximum Branching Beta Glucans to Strengthen Immune Function Description: Maximum Branching Beta Glucans to Strengthen Immune Function*We are constantly challenged by a barrage of immune-damaging factors. Supporting and activating the body’s natural immune response has never been more important. Cellular theory and Immune research has developed specific methods of strengthening Immune response.Immune Enhancing Discoveries Yeast In the 1940′s it was discovered that yeast enhanced resistance to disease. In the 1980′s researchers found that Beta Glucans in yeast were a ‘broad spectrum enhancer of host defense mechanisms’ that activated the body’s immune response. Mushroom Extract In the 1980′s, Dr. Hiroaki Nanba, a Japanese microbiologist, discovered an exceptional mushroom extract. Dr. Nanba’s discovery, now known as MaitakeGold 404� Patented Mushroom Extract, is a powerful active Beta Glucan as well. Dr. Nanba’s research reveals that the active constituents found in MaitakeGold 404� are a breakthrough in nutritional support for immune function. MaitakeGold 404� Beta 1,6/1,3 Glucans demonstrate superior immune activity when compared to other mushrooms. The key to MaitakeGold 404′s strength lies in the long chain Beta Glucan structures with maximum branching chains. Of all the known medicinal mushrooms, Maitake has demonstrated the highest level of bioavailability when taken orally.Beta Glucans and Specific Response� Beta Glucans are polysaccharide molecules. The most active of these molecules naturally occur in mushrooms and yeast. Research indicates that the Beta Glucans in mushrooms and yeast modulate the immune system. There are specific receptors for Beta Glucans on the surface of certain cells called macrophage. When activated, they stimulate a cascade of events turning the cells into an arsenal of immune defense. The actions created by these Beta Glucans is known as Specific Response�. Specific Response� is intended to support resistance to disease, physiological challenges and enhance longevity.* The Importance of Maximum Branching Beta Glucan research indicates that the degree of branching in Beta 1,3/1,6 and Beta 1,6/1,3 Glucans determines immune activity levels. Immune Strength� is formulated to provide maximum branching. The union of the two unique forms of Beta Glucans, 1,6/1,3 from MaitakeGold 404� and 1,3/1,6 from Cold Fusion� FoodState� Yeast, Saccromyces cerevisiae, create an active synergy for Immune Strength�.
