The Beta Glucans
Backed By Science

Highly Specialised Wellmune® Blend Prebiotic 250mg

One of the powerhouses of The LYMA Formula, Wellmune® Blend harnesses the power of beta glucans to promote wellbeing

What Are Beta Glucans Good For?

Beta-glucans are vital for a healthy gut (often referred to as a 'prebiotic') and have a multitude of health benefits. They are types of fibre found in the cells of certain types of yeast, algae, bacteria and fungi. All these foods help the body to withstand infection but such a high intake is required to meet the right levels, that it's rarely possible to do it through diet alone.

This is why supplementing a healthy diet with Wellmune® Blend is the route to optimal wellbeing.

What Are the Health Benefits of Beta Glucan Wellmune® Blend?

The highly specialised 1-3, 1-6 beta glucan has the right molecular structure to be absorbed in an effective way by the body. Working in the gut, they send messages to the brain to support our innate, rapid fire system and general wellbeing.

Unless beta glucans are presented in the correct molecular structure (1-3, 1-6 beta glucan), the chances are they won't be effective.

What Does the Research Say About Wellmune® Blend?

Wellmune® Blend has been supported by twenty peer-reviewed studies. When Wellmune® Blend is consumed, it is taken up in the body by the Peyer's Patches in the intestines. Cells called macrophages (located in the Peyer's Patches) ingest the beta glucan 1-3, 1-6 and travel to organs located throughout the body.

Macrophages break down the beta glucan into smaller fragments that bind to neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in the body. Primed by Wellmune® Blend, neutrophils move more quickly to recognise foreign challenges.

How Do You Take Wellmune® Blend?

Wellmune® Blend dosage should exactly match the levels at which the beta glucans have been tested to be effective. 250mg of Wellmune® Blend is proven to be an optimum dose, and this is exactly what The LYMA Supplement delivers every day.

LYMA is best taken each morning and afternoon following food and for maximum absorption, at least one hour away from caffeine consumption.

Your Questions About Beta Glucans And Wellmune® Blend

Are there any long-term side effects in taking Wellmune® Blend supplements daily?

Wellmune® Blend has a strong safety and toxicity profile and no reported contraindications with any foods. It is gluten-free, suitable for vegetarians and there are little to no side-effects.

How much beta glucan should I take?

Peer-reviewed studies around Wellmune® Blend support a recommended daily dose of 250mg per day.

How long does it take for beta glucan to work?

When taken daily and in the correct dosage, Wellmune® Blend has been shown to begin supporting the body in as little as 1-2 days.

What foods contain beta glucan?

Beta glucans are a type of soluble prebiotic fibre, so they’re present in whole grains such as oats, barley and rye in addition to seaweed, algae and most species of mushrooms. However, modern day food mass production has depleted many of these products of the vital levels of beta glucans, hence the need to supplement with nutraceutical versions. 

Is beta glucan an antioxidant?

Beta glucans have been found to possess notable antioxidant activity, depending on the source and extraction method used. Beta Glucan 1-3, 1-6 is the most effective and bioavailable form.
