Immune System Support
Who is it for?
Clinically proven Glucamune is for anyone (all adults, children and infants) whose immune system is in need of a boost or because it could be run down through poor diet, stress, illness, age or lifestyle.
Use it to help fight allergy; help prevent infections such as cold and flu; add extra natural protection to help stay well when travelling; or simply to maintain the very best of health.
Ideal for those who take other supplements and those who require high doses. Suitable also for children and infants as there are no known conflicts or side effects.
Use Glucamune to naturally kick start your body's defence system to help boost natural immunity, fight against infection or just stay at your very best.
Why do I need to supplement my immune system?
The innate immune system - the most important element in our defence against infection - has been lulled into a state of low activity by our over-sanitised environment. Beta-Glucans are immuno-modulators; they restore the innate immune system to full effectiveness.
What are Glucans …. and how do they work?
Beta-Glucans are specialised carbohydrates built up of glucose molecules. They occur naturally in yeast, mushrooms and certain plants.
Beta-Glucans from different sources come in various types and structures, with different effects in the body. The beta glucans in Glucasan Plus, derived from baker's yeast, are the best documented and most effective immuno-modulators available.
Which should I chose - Glucasan+ Betamune75 or Glucamune?
Glucamune has no added minerals so is suitable for those taking additional mineral supplements, children and infants and those on a high doses used in a combination with cancer treatments.

|
Vs Echinacea |
Echinacea - found to be ineffective protecting against respiratory tract infections such as coughs and colds (Grimm & Muller '99, Barrett et al 02, Kreutzfeld '06); ineffective or not proven (Caruso & Gwaltney '05, Carr & Nahata '06, Linde et al '06). |
|
Vs Aloe Vera |
Aloe Vera - may kill immune cells (Ramamoorthy & Tizard '98). Ineffective against viruses (Unsinger ‘97) |
|
Vs Pro biotics |
Pro biotics - efficacy only against gastrointestinal infections |
|
Vs Goldenseal |
Goldenseal - no in vivo evidence. Linked to potentially fatal adverse effects (Bhowmick et al ‘07) |
|
Vs Cat's Claw |
Cats Claw - interesting anti-inflammatory properties (ie Mur et al '02), but no in vivo evidence of immune activity |
|
Vs Antioxidants |
Antioxidants - may even be harmful (Bjelakovic & Gluud ‘07) |

"I was working ridiculous hours
setting up my own business and hadn’t had a holiday for two years. My
energy was rock-bottom and I was getting colds and sore throats all the
time.
A nutrition expert told me about these tablets, and they've made
the world of difference, I totally believe in these, they’ve
kept me going."
More than 1,500 scientific papers have investigated the roles, safety
and efficacy of beta glucan for more than 40 years - "beta-1,6-glucan with beta-1,3 side chains shows remarkable
immune-enhancing activities".For the full article -

Beta- Glucan 1-3, 1-6 is derived
from the cell walls of the 'friendly fungus', baker's yeast. It supports
the innate immune system by exercising it, making our defences more
alert to invading viruses and bacteria.
