❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Is your product the same as Transfer Point?
- Yes, it is the exact same product.
- We are licensed by Transfer Point to sell their Beta 1,3D Glucan in Canada.
- The bottle design is different only because of Canadian regulations.
- We exclusively sell high potency 500mg Beta Glucan capsules (formulated by AJ Lanigan).
- 100mg capsules are available in the USA from Better Way Health (also formulated by AJ Lanigan).
Q. How do we know Beta 1,3-D Glucan enhances the immune system?
- Decades of research from universities like Louisville, Tulane, and Harvard have detailed its immune effects.
- Thousands of scientific papers describe how Beta 1,3-D Glucan acts as a powerful immune modulator.
Q. I've seen Beta Glucan sold cheaper elsewhere. Why?
- Not all Beta Glucan products are the same quality or source.
- Yeast-derived beta glucan (especially from baker’s yeast) offers the best immune benefits.
- Mushroom beta glucans have shorter side chains and generally less immune impact.
- Oat, barley, and rye glucans have different structures and functions.
- Some cheaper products focus on fiber or cholesterol benefits, but lack immune-enhancing effects.
Q. What are the benefits of Beta Glucan on the immune system?
- Strengthens the immune system by activating white blood cells.
- Beta glucan binds to specific receptor sites on immune cells, triggering targeted immune responses.
- This activation helps the body fight off viruses, bacteria, fungi, cancer, and parasites.
Q. Why are baker’s yeast beta glucans better than others?
- Baker’s yeast beta glucans are highly branched and biologically active.
- Transfer Point Beta Glucan is 8× more effective than mushroom-based beta glucans, including prescription products used in Asia.
- It is also 160× more effective than many popular cheaper internet products.
Q. Is beta glucan safe to take with other medicines?
- Yes, it can enhance the effectiveness of many drugs like anti-infectives, cholesterol-lowering, and chemotherapy.
- Consult your doctor before use if you take immunosuppressants.
Q. Can I just eat bread or mushrooms to get enough beta glucan?
- No, whole yeast and mushrooms contain beta glucan in forms and amounts that are less bioavailable.
- Glucans need to be purified to unlock their immune benefits.
- Eating mushrooms can be helpful, but purified Transfer Point Glucan is much more effective.
Q. Will beta glucan overstimulate the immune system?
- No, beta glucan is an immune modulator—not a stimulant.
- It primes immune cells to respond only when foreign invaders are present.
Q. How much Beta 1,3-D Glucan should I take daily?
- Immune enhancement increases with dosage.
- Daily use of Transfer Point’s highly potent Beta 1,3-D Glucan greatly supports the immune system.
- Cancer patients should determine dosage based on body weight under medical supervision.
