Now Foods Beta - 1,3 / 1,6-D-Glucan - Beta-glucan for a healthy immune system
Now Foods Beta Glucan promotes the increased synthesis and release of cytokines (interleukins, interferon), which are a signal for other cells of the immune system such as T-lymphocytes, epidermal cell growth factor, angiogenesis factor. It does not undergo fermentation in the gastrointestinal tract. It is captured by the cells of the intestinal mucosa and is actively transferred to the layer below the mucosa, where it activates macrophages, and through them - the lymphocytes responsible for the protection of the endothelium, ie local immunity.
Beta-glucans maintain a healthy immune system and balance the level of cholesterol in the blood, which in turn reduces the risk of heart disease. In the formula Now Foods Beta - 1,3 / 1,6-D-Glucan is added an extract of maitake mushrooms, which act synergistically with beta-glucans and enhance their action.
