Beta 1, 3-D Glucan Beta 1, 3-D Glucan is a complex carbohydrate or biopolymer of glucose, a simple sugar. Beta-1, 3D glucan is the sole active ingredient in Beta Glucan. It is derived from the cell walls of baker's yeast, making it the precise substance for which the actual glucan macrophage receptor has been identified. Beta-1, 3D glucan is technically referred to as a polybranched polyglucose - so complex some refer to as fiber. The immune-enhancing properties of yeast cell walls were reported in 1939. But it wasn't until the 1960s that researchers identified Beta-1, 3D glucan as the key molecule. Since then, scientists at some of the world's pre-eminent universities and research institutions have conducted more than 800 Beta-1, 3D glucan studies in animals and humans. This research confirms that Beta-1, 3D glucan produced multiple broad-scale effects that strengthen the vitality of the immune system. Cause and Effect Beta-1, 3D glucan works by activating immune cells known as macrophages, neutrophils and natural killer (NK) cells. These are you immune system's first line of innate defense. They are responsible for finding, identifying, and consuming foreign substances in the body. Macrophages also control the activities of other important cells in the immune system. "Because macrophages can be found in almost every organ of our body, including the brain, they are in an ideal position to react." says Dr. Václav Větvička. Transfer Point uses only Beta glucan derived from baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisae). According to Dr. Russell L. Blaylock, "the most effective source of Beta-1, 3D glucan is from Saccharomyces cerevisae, the one chosen by most researchers. Purity of the product is vital, since protein contaminants can cause untoward immune reactions." That's why each lot of our product is certified by independent laboratories for purity and potency. Beta glucan has been proven to be effective when administered orally or intravenously, however, the latter would require daily visits to a physician. When taken orally, the macrophage obtains maximum activity and effectiveness after about 72 hours, then again reaches normal activity after about 144 hours. "As it is a natural substance, there are no side effects and there is no danger of overdose. Clearly Beta Glucan is a natural, safe, specific and highly effective way to keep our immune system healthy." Dr. Václav Větvička. The Five Key Immune Responses Targeted by Beta Glucan: 1. Production of white blood cells 2. Cellular mobilization 3. Phagocytic capacity 4. Production of reactive oxygen intermediates 5. Helps shift from an over stimulated Th2 to a Th1 cell mediated immune response. Source: Transfer Point

|
Beta Glucan, 500 mg, 60 Caps, Transfer Point. Beta Glucan is a unique compound derived from the cell walls of yeast. Beta Glucan triggers an immune response in the body creating a system of defense against viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic or neoplastic invaders. It also has potent anti-oxidant and free radical scavenging capabilities.
View Certificate of Analysis
In the 1940s research yielded a substance that had immune activating properties called Zymosan. It was not known until the 1960s which element caused the response, when Nicholas DiLuzio at Tulane University experimented with Beta-1, 3-D Glucan. In the 1970s, experiments with Beta-1, 3-D Glucan in humans began.
