Beta-Glucan is a natural, soluble polysaccharide found in the cell walls of oats, yeast, and some mushrooms. Our 1,3 / 1,6 Beta Glucan which comes from Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cell walls has a lower molecular weight and therefore absorbs more readily to deliver more benefits.
In cosmetics and personal care products, Beta-Glucan is used as a moisturizer and skin-soothing agent. It helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin texture, and enhances skin elasticity. Beta Glucan (Yeast) is heavily utilized in the medical community for the specific treatment of compromised skin and immune stimulation.
