Review: Great for Breastfeeding mother in distress - Breastfeeding on demand (day and night) for a year is leaving my body depleted, and my immune system was shot since months. The same day of taking this product i noticed improved health (and i normally take zinc and mega vitamin C). And within 24 hours much better. My child also seems to have lowered immune system compared to when new born, nothing out of the ordinary, apparently this is normal (??), i hope this product goes through the milk. I found there is a Noregean company "Immuno Medic" that makes Beta Glucan syrup for children from 1 years of age and up, with dosage of 30 mg. So apparently you could feed Beta Glucan to your baby at appropriate dosages. I will update if there are any adverse effects. For exhausted breastfeeding mothers i recommend: Fermented cod liver /butter oil blend, and L-glutathione also. Always do your research, and test take before committing. Update 07/13/2013 I discovered the reason i had been so depleted was because i was eating too much grains. As soon as i reduced these i started to feel much better. With my baby, i stopped taking milk products for a while (she had been slightly allergic to milk), and this seemed to help. However it is important to take dairy products right away because of the significant amounts calcium/phosphate that vegetables do NOT provide (yes even greens). I no longer recommend spinach because of its high oxalic acid content that will bind to the calcium in the digestive system. The beta glucan really helped. I ended up giving my baby 1/2 of the capsule, and she was fine with this. Review: Very surprising and awesome results! - This may seem a little crazy but after doing some research I found out that many holistic vets recommend beta glucan as a supplement to keep dogs healthy and alive for many more years. My sweet dog Sunny was recently diagnosed with diabetes so I was searching for anything to help him and came across many articles on beta glucan. Initially he was having stomach issues and vomiting so I had him on a little Benadryl but after reading that it wasn’t so good for dogs I tried 1/4 of a teaspoon of this instead. To my surprise and delight the stomach issues and allergies cleared up and he seems happier, healthier, and more energetic! If you are thinking about this for your pet please consult your vet first as I’m not a vet but you may find it very helpful as I sure did! ## Features - NOW Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan (Beta-Glucan) is a bioactive carbohydrate derived from the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, commonly known as bakers' yeast.

I have used this product because I have an autoimmune disease that depresses my immunity and it does work to prevent pneumonia and other respiratory viruses. I am not sure you need a standardized dose but I usually take Swanson's Beta Right beta glucan and it works well consistently. **Q: What are the other ingredients in this?** A: Beta - 1,3/1,6 -D- Glucan Powder (from Saccharomyces cerevisiae)100 mg* Maitake Mushrooms (Grifola frondosa)160 mg* Other Ingredients: Cellulose (capsule), Magnesium Stearate (vegetable source), Rice Flour and Silica.Contains No: Sugar, salt, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or preservatives. Vegetarian/Vegan Product. **Q: What does "1,3/1,6" mean?** A: Beta glucan is a chain of glucose sugars hooked together. Glucose has six carbon atoms in it and they are numbered 1 through six. So the bonds between two glucose molecules is either from the number 1 carbon on the first molecule to number 3 on the second molecule or from the number 1 carbon on the first molecule to the number six carbon on the second molecule. Both occur naturally and both are active immune boosters. **Q: Why are the capsules half full, my capsules are barely half full? Is this correct are should I return them?** A: I would call NOW customer service. I checked one of mine and it was very full. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Breastfeeding mother in distress *by J***H on February 24, 2013* Breastfeeding on demand (day and night) for a year is leaving my body depleted, and my immune system was shot since months.
