A study comparing Biothera’s Wellmune to other forms of beta glucans was published in an April 2011 edition of the journal Nature. The researchers tested the ability of several different forms of beta glucans to activate Dectin-1, a key receptor that primes immune cells to defend against foreign elements. They found that Wellmune activated Dectin-1 while other soluble forms of beta glucans did not. This study demonstrates that the structure of beta glucans is important in supporting the immune system, and that Wellmune’s structure is suited to do just that.

Wellmune Reported to Reduce Allergy Symptoms

On April 14, SupplementWatch released initial results of a study that investigated the effect of Wellmune on allergy symptoms. The study focused specifically on ragweed, a leading cause of seasonal allergy symptoms. In this double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial, 48 participants living in an area with high ragweed pollen counts consumed either 250 mg of Wellmune or a placebo for 4 weeks. The participants in the Wellmune group reported significantly reduced allergy symptoms and severity compared to the placebo group. They also had an improved index on a quality of life questionnaire.

Shawn M. Talbott, Julie A. Talbott, Tracy L. Talbott, and Elaine Dingler, Baker’s Yeast Beta-Glucan Supplement Reduces Allergy Symptoms and Improves Quality of Life in Ragweed Sufferers.

“When dealing with allergy, the ideal combination is Wellmune and a mix of anti-inflammatory agents such as the flavonoids and triterpenes in MonaVie juices. MonaVie (M)Mūn will inevitably be more effective than Wellmune alone.” — Dr. Paul Clayton, MonaVie Scientific Advisory Board

Women Experience Fewer Cold/Flu Symptoms, Higher Energy Levels with Wellmune®

A recent study evaluated the effect of Wellmune—a key ingredient in MonaVie (M)mūn—on upper-respiratory tract infections (URTIs) and psychological well being.

Healthy women, pre-screened for moderate levels of psychological stress, self-administered a placebo or 250 mg of Wellmune daily for 12 weeks. Subjects in the Wellmune group reported fewer URTI symptoms, better overall well being, and superior mental and physical energy levels compared to the group that took the placebo.

This shows that daily dietary supplementation with Wellmune reduces URTI symptoms and improves mood states in stressed subjects, and thus may be a useful approach for maintaining immune protection against daily stressors.

acai berryA chapter discussing the benefits of the açai berry has been published in the book, Flavor and Health Benefits of Small Fruits, published by Oxford University Press in conjunction with the American Chemical Society (ACS), the largest scientific organization in the world.

Studying foods for their potential health benefits to humans can benefit from in vitro assays that can correlate with in vivo outcomes.
