A good question - ("ignorance" is what display when you don't
ask)Different; the Beta-1, 3-D Glucan "potentiate" the macrophages so that the whole "cascade" of immune response becomes "all that it can be". By this process it should enhance any other protocols and products that are used to help the immune system. Beta Glucan Health Benefits: Beta-1, 3-D glucan works by activating the immune cells known as macrophages. Macrophages trap and consume foreign substances that do not belong in the body. By potentiating the macrophage, beta glucan can provide the following benefits: Preventative nutrition Tissue regeneration and repair Protection against radiation Anti-neoplastic effect Potent anti-oxidant properties Beta-1, 3-D glucan is a powerful anti-oxidant - a free radical scavenger. It is a natural radioprotective compound. It causes phagocytes to scavenge debris and cellular breakdown caused by radiation. Some forms of radiation that your immune system can protect you from is airline travel, X-rays, mammograms, high tension power lines, proximity to nuclear facilities, computer terminals and UV rays from the sun. Beta glucan enhanced macrophages can also help regenerate and repair tissue, thus, speeding up the recovery of damaged tissue. This compound also has adjuvant effects. Beta-1, 3-D glucan helps other substances like antibiotics, antifungals and antiparasitics to work better in the body. Another important effect it has on the body is the anti-neoplastic effect. Beta-1, 3-D glucan makes the macrophages recognize and destroy mutated cells. P. Mansell, M.D. of the McGill University Cancer Research Center stated, "Glucan was found to be an effective drug in inducing macrophage-mediated destruction in malignant lesions in animals and humans." Causes and Conditions of Immune Compromise: AIDS and HIV Allergy Athletic Training Bacterial Infection Bronchitis Cancer Candidiasis Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Chronic Infection CMV Virus Common Cold Diabetes Emphysema Epstein-Barr Virus Fungal Infection Herpes Mononucleosis Old Age Parasitic Infection Peridontal disease Pneumonia Poor nutrition Radiation Stress Surgery Viral Infection It is important to take pure (fats removed) Beta Gulcans of the proper molecular size (<1 micron) in high enough doses (theraputic:approximately 500mg per 50lbs. body wt.; maintenance about 1/4 the theraputic dose) to have the desired effect.
