Beta Glucan Powder Insen supply is the polysaccharide composed by glucose, they are combined through β-1,3 mostly, which is the connection form of glucose chain.
♥Natural and safe
Yeast beta glucan is the main component of yeast cell wall, which is completely extracted from yeast and is abundant in fungus mushrooms (Agaricus blazei);
♥High biological activity
Yeast Beta glucan powder has strong biological activity.
Immune Response
Beta glucan can act as an immune system activator and cell response modifier. The binding of beta glucan to specific receptors can cause a cellular response that's especially helpful in chemo- and radiotherapy-induced immunosuppression and depleted hematopoiesis, the process through which the body manufactures blood cells.
Beta glucan also plays an important role in promoting the activity of lymphocytes, white blood cells known as Th1 and Th2 effectors. Th1 lymphocytes control immunity against intracellular parasites, while Th2 effectors control immunity against extracellular pathogens. Disruptions in the balance of these cells may cause an autoimmune response. Autoimmune responses occur when your immune system attacks healthy cells which can lead to serious problems.
Antitumor and Cancer Response
Extracted and/or purified β-glucans have been used in clinical cancer treatment. Beta glucan acts as an immunomodulating agent (helps fight disease) through the activation of innate immune cells. This activation sets off adaptive immune cell responses, inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis (when cancer spreads to a different body part from where it started).
Bone Health
Beta glucan has demonstrated anti-osteoporotic activities in clinical trials. More studies into the effects on humans is needed. Osteoporotic fractures occur when people have osteoporosis, a disease in which bones are fragile due to low bone mass or deterioration.
β-glucans also mobilize murine progenitor cells from bone marrow and enhance murine hematopoietic recovery following bone marrow injury.
Blood Pressure Management
Yeast Beta Glucan powder can reduce hypertension (high blood pressure). In a study in rats with spontaneous hypertension, a diet containing 5% shiitake (Lentinus edodes) or maitake (Grifola frondosa) mushroom caused a decrease in mean systemic blood pressure.
Cholesterol Management
Beta glucan's cholesterol effects have been largely studied. Oat bran, which contains β-glucans, was the first-ever cholesterol-reducing food registered by the US Food and Drug Administration. When polysaccharide glucans are included in a meal, carbohydrate and lipid absorption slow down, modifying alimentary hormone and lipid responses. Along with carbohydrates and proteins, lipids are the main constituents of plant and animal cells.
Diabetes and Weight Control
The anti-diabetic and anti-obesity effects of beta glucan have been proven in many animal- and human-based clinical trials.
With regard to weight management, the satiating capacity (ability to make you feel full after eating) of beta glucan is likely tied to short-chain fatty acid generation through colonic fermentation. Short-chain fatty acids control the release of appetite-regulating hormones, such as peptide YY (PYY), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and ghrelin, a hormone in the gastrointestinal tract.
Yeast beta glucan is used in various foods, such as: meat products, dairy products, biscuits, beverages, fruit juices.Beta glucan powder is used as a raw material for health care products.
As a feed additive, yeast beta glucan can help livestock, poultry and other animals.
Beta glucan is used in various cosmetic raw materials.
