Mushroom Beta-Glucan Powder – 50%

Mushroom beta-glucans are (1,3)/(1,6)-linked polysaccharides obtained by hot-water extraction of medicinal mushrooms and standardized to 30% or 50% beta-glucans. They are valued in immune and wellness formulas rooted in East Asian tradition. Beta-glucan should be measured by a specific enzymatic method (e.g. Megazyme), not total polysaccharides.
