Product Description

Beta 1,3-D glucan is a complex carbohydrate or biopolymer of glucose, a simple sugar. Beta-1, 3-D glucan is the sole active ingredient in Beta glucan. It is derived from the cell walls of baker's yeast, making it the precise substance for which the actual glucan macrophage receptor has been identified. Beta-1, 3-D glucan is technically referred to as a polybranched polyglucose - so complex some refer to it as fiber. The immune-enhancing properties of yeast cell walls were reported in 1939. But it wasn't until the 1960s that researchers identified Beta 1, 3-D glucan as the key molecule. Since then, scientists at some of the world's pre-eminent universities and research institutions have conducted more than 800 Beta 1, 3-D glucan studies in animals and humans. This research confirms that Beta 1,3-D glucan produces multiple broadscale effects that strengthen the vitality of the immune system. The five key immune responses targeted by Beta glucan: 1. Production of white blood cells 2. Cellular mobilization 3. Phagocytic capacity 4. Production of reactive oxygen intermediates 5. Helps shift from an overstimulated Th2 to a Th1 cell mediated immune response.

5.0 out of 5 stars completely unexpected result, September 18, 2011

I have throat cancer and started taking this to support my immune system but got a completely unexpected result. I have two large cats (Maine Coons) and am so allergic to them that I have to change clothes and take a bath after petting or holding them. Three days after I started taking Transfer Point Beta 1 3D Glucan I was no longer allergic to them. It's been six weeks and my cats and I are loving it.

This product may be expensive, but it is extremely beneficial in fighting off unwanted invaders in your bloodstream. Beta glucan will expose the invaders. This will allow your immune system to identify the problem and destroy it. Without this product, your white blood cells cannot fight what it cannot see. Beta glucan gives you a fighting chance. I found this product when I was doing cancer research after I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in 2008. So far, so good. I am doing other things too, however, this product is an integral part of my artillary.

I have been taking transfer point 500 mg beta glucan for 2 1/2 years. I started taking it after going thru chemo for stage 3 breast cancer. I didn't know about it while taking the chemo, or i would have taken it sooner. I stayed healthy when my whole family went through the flu, even though I was the one who had just went thru chemo, and should have had a low immune system. I credited it to taking the beta glucan. Wish I could afford it for the whole family. I tried a different brand thinking it would be as good. It was also pricey but not quite as expensive as transfer point. I was only taking the other brand for a month and came down with a bad cold, so needless to say I went back to this brand and have had no problems since. I will take it for life to ward off my cancer from returning, and keep my immune system strong.
