Beta-glucans are the most abundant and primary active compound found in mushrooms and mycelium. These complex polysaccharides are where much of the immunological benefits come from which is why it is so important to validate and guarantee beta-glucan content. A lack of beta-glucans can be attributed to many things like low quality ingredients, improper processing and extraction or the addition of fillers like grains (see alpha-glucans). All Real Mushrooms products have verified levels of beta-glucans right on the label so you can trust that you're getting the benefits you deserve.
