Beta Factor™, however, does more than offer excellent immune support. Because Beta glucans are a soluble fiber, Beta Factor™ helps to slow down food traveling through the intestines. This means that it takes longer for the body to digest food when Beta Factor™ is added as a dietary supplement. Slower digestion means the body doesn’t absorb sugar as quickly, reducing the likelihood of blood sugar spikes. This helps the body support healthy blood sugar levels and healthy cholesterol levels. Beta glucans are indigestible, so they travel through the whole digestive tract.
The immune system is the most important system of the body when it comes to preventing diseases. It defends the body from developing potentially harmful diseases and illnesses caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi.
We are all born with different levels of immune systems. Some have a stronger immune system than others, but there are many things that can weaken even a strong immune system. Our immune responses can be weakened by various external influences, and many people have suffered as a result of one or more of these outside influences. Among these influences are stress, highly processed foods, dehydration, excess alcohol, smoking, inadequate sleep, lack of exercise, lack of sunshine, antibiotics and other medications, lack of hygiene, toxins, and obesity.
The immune system is typically divided into 3 categories – inflammation, innate (non-specific), and acquired (specific).
- First line of defense – INFLAMMATORY response is the way to establish a physical barrier for the cell against the spread of infection and to support healing to any damaged tissue once the pathogens have been removed.
- Second line of defense – INNATE immunity is the subsystem of our immune system that comprises the cells and defense mechanisms that defend our bodies from harmful invaders.
- Third line of defense – ACQUIRED immunity happens only after your body has adapted to a specific threat and acquired antibodies against it. It means your body remembers a previous attacker and is ready for any future attacks.
Acquired immunity is the basis for vaccines which expose your body to something it has not seen before. This type of immunology completely bypasses our innate immune system. The better battle plan is to build up our innate immune system through natural means. Innate immunity combats 99% of our body’s invaders, whereas acquired immunity accounts for only 1% of the infectious intruders. Therefore, it is only logical that we should focus our efforts on building up our innate immunity.
There are natural substances known as Beta glucans that help support your innate immunity for battle-ready condition. Beta Factor™ contains refined Beta glucans from simple bakers yeast. There are over 50 years of research from famous universities, showing how Beta glucans help support a healthy immune system. These glucans are not actually yeast. Yeast is merely their source.
Doctors and scientists agree that it is impossible to have optimal health without a strong immune system. It doesn’t matter so much what you are exposed to in the way of disease causing germs. What matters most is how your body handles them. You just can’t beat a strong defensive immune system that has the support it needs to handle even the toughest invaders with ease. This is the purpose of Beta Factor™.
