What is beta-glucan? It is a building block of the cell walls of fungi, such as the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It can be distinguished by a number of interesting properties, which began to be known in the mid-20th century. Beta-glucans are a group of compounds that are also used in supplementation. A product worth checking out that contains Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan powder (from Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is NOW Foods Extra Strength Beta-Glucans with ImmuneEnhancer 250 mg.
