On a daily basis, we are constantly exposed to potentially harmful pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi from the environment.
A healthy immune system protects our body against infections. However, if our immune system is weakened, we are vulnerable to all types of infections that can make us sick and sometimes lead to major health risks.
Our immune system can be weakened by multiple factors including ageing, a poor diet, stress, the lack of sleep, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, obesity or other underlying health conditions. Some of the common symptoms that indicate a weakened immune system include:
- Common colds including cough, sore throat, runny nose, headache, and mild fever
- Stomach issues such as diarrhoea, bloating and constipation
- Fatigue
- Delayed wound healing
- Frequent or repeated infections such as skin, sinus, and urinary tract infections
All in all, a healthy body is dependent on a strong immune system. Fortunately, there are many natural ways to strengthen our immune system.
Get ready to strengthen your immune system with yeast beta-glucan
Proper nutrition accompanied by a healthy lifestyle is one of the best natural ways to strengthen our immune system. For many years, vitamin C has been a popular household remedy for immune support. However, yeast beta-glucan is another type of emerging immune health ingredient that works differently and acts synergistically with vitamin C to improve immune health.
Beta-glucan is a type of soluble fibre that can be found in certain foods such as yeast, oat and mushroom. Different types of beta-glucans provide different health benefits due to the distinctive molecular structure of each source. Among the many types of beta-glucans, yeast beta-glucan is better known for its ability to enhance the immune system by improving the responsiveness of our immune cells to strengthen our ability to defend against pathogens.
Yeast beta-glucan acts as a training agent by binding to the surface of immune cells and activating them to respond more readily to fight off infections, resulting in trained immune cells with an enhanced immune response that can act better and faster against pathogens. In addition, yeast beta-glucan has been shown through emerging studies to have well-substantiated immune-supporting properties by reducing the incidence, severity, and duration of common colds.
