B- GLUCAN BALL
When it comes to optimal biological activity, nothing is more important than purity. No other supplement-maker can rival the potency and organic purity of our Umeken Beta Glucan Ball.
Independently tested for potency and quality, each ball contains 9 different mushroom varieties with the highest concentration of Beta-glucan. Glucan supports a healthy immune system and increases immune response through its ability to increase NK White Blood cells that attack harmful viruses and degenerated cells.
Created using 9 of the most beta-glucan rich mushrooms:
- Reishi
- Rokkaku Reishi
- Cordyceps
- Phellinus Linteus
- Cauliflower mushroom
- Pine mushroom
- Maitake Mushroom
- Chaga Mushroom
- Agaricus Blazei Mushroom
What is Beta-Glucan?
Beta-Glucans are polysaccharides present in the cell walls of mushrooms, grains, and yeast.
In 1941, American doctor Louis Pillemer, discovering them in the cell wall of yeast, named them "Zymosan". Later, in 1960s, Dr. Nicholas Diluzio, also of the US, gave these large-molecular polysaccharides the name Beta-glucans. Beta-glucans have been demonstrated to strengthen the immune cells. The Beta-glucans having anticarcinogenic effects are B-(1,3), (1,6)-glucans.*
Beta-glucan is an anti-carcinogen found in mushrooms and yeast. Research indicates the positive effect Beta-glucan has on activating the immune system. Such immune responses can be helpful in different types of illnesses.*
Further, extensive studies have shown that Beta-Glucan helps increase a person’s NK (Natural Killer) cells. NK cells are a type of white blood cells that attack infected virus and cancer cells by sticking themselves to the surface of those cells and creating a hole on the infected cell membrane and letting it “kill” itself. Researchers at Tufts University in Massachusetts have recently shown that mushrooms have antiviral and immunity boosting effects. The Beta-glucan in mushrooms produces cytokine that helps to greatly increase NK cell generation.
Why is Umeken Beta-glucan Ball so much better than all the others?
Most Beta-glucan products extract Beta-glucan from yeast, grains, or at the most, one or two kinds of mushrooms. But Umeken Beta-glucan comes from 9 Premium Powerful Mushrooms, making it the very best out there.
Umeken Beta-glucan combines Beta-glucans from 9 of the most valuable mushrooms into one supplement. Each mushroom is a treasure trove of nutrients all by itself; imagine what will happen when you take all nine at once! And that's not all. Umeken Beta-glucan adds two kinds of yeast-based Beta-glucan making it more than just a health supplement. It's truly a supplement of life.
