OSLO, NorwayImmunoMedic launched Betox-93, an ultra pure 1,3/1,6 glucan ingredient ideal for use in a wide range of natural immune therapy and cholesterol lowering formulations. Beta glucan is a polysaccharide primarily used to stimulate the immune system as well as to manage blood cholesterol concentration levels. The most common source of beta glucans are higher fungi, baker's yeast cell walls and grains of some cereals. Betox-93 yields a purity of 93-percent, one of the highest purities in the market. It offers a high bioavailability due to the high purity and micronization of particles, making it suitable for a wide range of formulations. Betox-93 is free of any proteins, fats taste or odor. This patented ingredient is produced under strict quality control and its origin is certified organic oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus).

We are thrilled to bring this new, high purity and high bioavailability beta glucan to the North American market," says Morten Sundsto, president and CEO of ImmunoMedic. The beta glucan market in the U.S. and Canada is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years. Beta Glucan is increasingly gaining attention as a natural and effective ingredient for wide range of applications, including supplements, functional foods, skin care and wound care."
