Glucasan Immune System Support
Who is it for?
Glucasan®+ is for anyone whose immune system could be run down through 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.
Use Glucasan® + 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.
Beta-Glucan the friendly fungus for the immune system!

Courteney's Beta Glucan article Aug 08
report from the
Sunday Mirror
"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 take two as soon as I feel a sniffle coming
on and within a few hours I feel really fantastic. The rest of the time
I take one a day and if I forget I feel the difference instantly. My
resistance seems so much higher. 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.
Cun Zhuang, PhD, vice president of research and development explained "beta-1,6-glucan with beta-1,3 side chains shows remarkable immune-enhancing activities."
