What is Beta Glucan - Yeast Education

Yeast has a strong cell wall, and occupying about 30% of total cell mass, approximately 90% cell wall containing mannoprotein consisting outer membrane and glucan consisting inner membrane, and contained small amount of chitin(1-3%) and lipid(2-5%). Mannoprotein and glucan are

similar in cell wall (Fleet, G. H. 1991).

•Yeast-derived beta 1,3-glucans work, in part, by stimulating the

innate anti-fungal immune mechanisms to fight a range of foreign

challenges.

How Beta Glucan Strengthens Your Immune System

Immune System Components:

vInnate Immune Response

vAcquired Immune Response

The immune system has two components, the innate and the acquired. Beta glucan works to activate both.

As we all know, the immune system protect us from foreign invaders and helps keep us healthy. What is less known is that beta glucan is scientifically proven to strengthen the immune system.

•In the innate immune system, beta glucan binds with the macrophages, a type of white blood cell whose job is to detect intruders and coordinate the body's defences against them.

•When activated by beta glucan, macrophages go on high alert and their ability to identify and destroy foreigners is heightened. Through a process called "phagocytosis", macrophages devour invaders like pac-man. Research shows that macrophages fortified by beta glucan are better able to rally the body's defenses.

•The stimulated macrophages then communicate the intruder's presence to the body's other defenders. Together the macrophages and the cells of the acquired immune system join the fight.

•Using the information transmitted from the macrophages, B-cells begin producing antibodies and T-cells, which are specialized cells trained to kill the invaders.

The antibodies, working with the innate immune system, bind foreigners into clusters which helps to destroy themThe intruders are then engulfed by macrophages. This is how the immune system rids the body of harmful invaders

The health and strength of your immune system directly effects your body's ability to protect itself. Beta glucan can support your immune system, and help it achieve peak performance
