Re: Beta 1,3 D-Glucan (WAS: Immunocal/ImmunePro)

Where are you getting your beta 1,3 D-Glucan from and

at what price? I looked at BAC but it is still pricey

at 40bucks for 60caps of 500mg. I noticed that you

are using a powder. Have you found a cheap bulk

supplier?

mixed in a heaping 1/2 teas Beta 1,3 D Glucan (~1.5

grams)

Bob,

I got my beta 1,3D Glucan in a bulk 250 gram bottle

from Chisolm:

It was pricey, but I'm happy with the quality

and the results. My immune system is functioning

better.

, do you have a way of knowing that the Beta Glucan is helping your

immune system function better? I am taking it sporadically but can't tell.

I'm not a doctor so it's not easy for me to explain...

In my last blood morphology (after at least a month on Beta Glucan,

ImmunFactor1, MSM, heparin, bromelain, L-taurine, doxy,...)

My white blood cells looked healthier and more active. In my

earlier assessment my WBC's were fragile and inactive.

Physically, I still get tired after strenuous activity.

But, I rest and recouperate. Previously, I would crash and

get set back a few days.

, that makes sense to me, one non-doc to another. I am in the same

boat right now almost...not really crashing anymore and if I gave the rest

and recuperate a chance I think it would work. What kind of thing/test

looked at your WBCs? Was that a live blood morphology? Thanks.

My doctor uses Bradford's high resolution microscopy

system. He pricks my little finger and makes two slides.

One he lets dry while we look at the live blood on

a TV screen. Later, we assess the dried blood.

See site for more info:

http://www.bradfordresearchinst.com/

I think it costs around $125 for the assessment and

is not covered by my blue cross insurance.

Personally, I feel I get a more accurate assessment

of the effect treatments are having on my system then

re-sending my blood off to labs across the country.

One ISAC Panel was enough to get me started on heparin.

I use the blood morphologies to assess the effect the

heparin (and other treatments)are having on my blood.
