HEALT BENEFITS AND SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE

Polysaccharides are made up of many small sugar units linked together in different ways to form complex polysaccharides, where beta glucans represent one group.

Beta glucans vary in terms of backbone structure, molecular mass, and solubility, among other things. Any slight variation in molecule characteristics and structure may affect the bioactivity and health promoting effects of the specific beta glucan. Fluxome^®Beta Glucan has an intact and unique molecular structure that gives a comparatively high effect.

Fluxome^®Beta Glucan has been clinically proven to enhance the immune system in a number of studies. The following studies have run tests using Fluxome^®Beta Glucan:

Human clinical studies

• Absorption study
  - Fluxome®Beta Glucan is absorbed in the blood when consumed orally
  
• Double blind, placebo controlled study
  - Fluxome® Beta Glucan stimulates B-cell proliferation, and is thus   
  immune stimulating
  
• Double blind, placebo controlled study
  - Fluxome®Beta Glucan improves quality of life, even for healthy individuals
  
• Open labeled, single group, in-home study
  - Fluxome®Beta Glucan improves quality of life for fatigued individuals
  
• Human ex-vivo studies
  - Fluxome®Beta Glucan contains beta glucans with intact triple helical form, and thus exhibits a genuine immune response.

Cellular in vitro systems

• Fluxome®Beta Glucan showed immune response in typical mice cell line systems, which was much higher than that of other commercial beta glucan products.

Animal studies

• Fluxome®Beta Glucan leads to immune stimulation and B-cell production both in mice and rats.
