What is a Yeast Beta Glucan?

Beta glucans are naturally found in some foods, and different types of beta glucans have different biological functions. Because the body doesn’t produce beta glucans naturally, the only way to get them is through nutritional sources. But it’s important to know that not all beta glucans are effective in supporting immune health.

Yeast-derived beta glucans usually originate in either baker’s yeast or brewer’s yeast. Even though both are beta 1,3/1,6 glucan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the source matters—the beta glucans extracted from the cell walls of baker’s yeast have a different molecular pattern from that of brewer’s yeast, which can influence the immune support provided by the final product. Research supports the immune-modulating properties of Wellmune, a beta glucan sourced from baker’s yeast.

What is Trained Innate Immunity and how does this make Wellmune unique?

• ‘Trained Innate Immunity’ is the result of when a trainer substance, like Wellmune, interacts with the innate immune system and causes changes to how it handles threats for a period of time. When the innate immune system is trained it responds more effectively and more efficiently to challenges. Learn more in the video below.
• Wellmune is the FIRST ingredient that has been clinically studied as an oral immune system trainer, providing a unique way of supporting immunity and everyday health.
