(MENAFN- Coherent Market Insights) Beta glucan based products have been in use for the last decade. These are major breakthroughs in modern medical history. Beta glucan is derived from plant sources and has been used for centuries for the benefit of health. It is no surprise that this compound has recently found its way into the nutritional supplements arena. It is one of the most nutritious supplements on the market.

Research has shown that people who consume Glucan based products have lower rates of heart disease. It is believed that the component of the supplement helps boost the immune system and increases the body's tolerance to low levels of cholesterol. This allows the body to more efficiently remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream. Furthermore, the ingredients in these products are very high in antioxidants, which help prevent cell damage. Studies have shown that Glucan products can help reduce joint inflammation and possibly even be useful in the treatment of arthritis and allergies. This is due to the anti-inflammatory effect of the ingredients. Celiac disease, Lupus, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis are among the more common forms of autoimmune diseases. In some cases, glucan-based products can help bring relief from these conditions, as well.

Beta glucan based products are also known for their ability to lower the levels of certain chemicals in the body. Chemotherapy and radiation often render immune system treatments ineffective.
