- Biological Source
The source of CM-Glucan Nu is the polysaccharide ß-Glucan from baker’s yeast commonly used in baking bread. Through a special process, called carboxymethylation, the poorly water-soluble and hence badly absorbable ß-Glucan is being transformed into the highly soluble CM-Glucan.

- Mode of Action
ß-Glucan has extraordinary immune enhancing capabilities. It acts as an “immune trainer” and supports the body defense system through rebalancing the ratio of the Th1/Th2 helper cells. These cells are also called lymphocytes and are one of the body’s main types of immune cells. This improvement results in a reduced production of specific antibodies, responsible for the oversensitive reaction of the immune system caused by airborne allergens, dust, or animal hair.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Clinical Results
The benefits of CM-Glucan on allergic rhinitis and cold symptoms were demonstrated in various placebo-controlled studies in children and adults. It reduced unpleasant runny nose, sneezing episodes, decreased occurrences of allergic rhinitis attacks, as well as reduced sneezing and cough with common cold.
