Beta Glucan 100 mg
Vitabase
Overview
The Vitabase Beta Glucan 100 mg supplement offers a combination of immune-supportive ingredients, with Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan and Maitake Mushrooms. While both ingredients have evidence supporting immune modulation, the dosage of 100 mg for Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan is at the lower end of clinically effective doses for immune support, which typically range from 100-250 mg/day as a minimum, with optimal doses often 250-500 mg/day. The 160 mg of Maitake Mushrooms also provides beneficial compounds, but optimal standalone immune-stimulating doses are not clearly defined for all extracts.
The Good
Provides two well-researched immune-modulating ingredients.
Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan has evidence for reducing incidence and severity of upper respiratory infections.
Maitake Mushrooms contribute to enhanced immune cell activity.
The Bad
The 100 mg dose of Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan is at the lower end of clinically effective ranges, potentially limiting its full efficacy.
Specific standardization or active component levels for Maitake Mushrooms are not provided, making precise efficacy assessment difficult.
No specific claims or research about the combined synergistic effect of these exact doses of ingredients are provided.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking immune support, those interested in cardiovascular health, general wellness
Skip If: You are pregnant or nursing, or have a compromised immune system without consulting a doctor.
