Immunovite: Beta 1-3_1-6 Glucan

Product Description

Immunovite contains Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan, a powerful immune-priming nutritional supplement. This unique compound primes the innate immune system to help the body defend itself against viral & bacterial invaders. What is Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan? Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan is a scientifically-proven biological defence modifier (BDM) that potentiates the immune response through macrophage & dendritic immune cells to safely yield various therapeutic effects. For many years, glucans have been investigated for these immune-priming properties, particularly their ability to activate macrophage immune cells &, in turn, the T-cells, NK cells & B cells, including selected cytokines & Complement. Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan is a natural substance, derived from the cell wall of bakers yeast. It is a pure extraction & does not contain enough yeast protein to cause any allergic reactions. Cells involved in the immune response originate from stem cells originating from bone marrow. New cells from bone marrow are produced on an ongoing basis throughout the life cycle. However, the formation & migration of newly-formed, white immune cells (that can promote or produce antibodies) is limited, & declines with aging. Beta glucan nutritionally stimulates the production of needed precursor cells in bone marrow, yielding an increased flow of immunocytes into the blood stream & the various lymphoid organs. Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan non-specifically activates the immune system, primarily by ingestion by the macrophage immune cells, through specific & unique beta glucan receptors on the cell surface. Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan potentiates & activates various cells of the body, particularly macrophage cells, to release tumour necrosis factor, interleukins 1 & 6, hydrogen peroxide & gamma interferon, all of which fight against invading micro-organisms. Beta glucan potentiation of the immune response is systemic, activating the immune system throughout the whole body. The efficacy of beta glucan is widely researched & studied.
