Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Yes, I use Beta Glucan on my son a lot. It definitely helps him. I'm not sure what it helps with (yeast or bacteria?) but if I haven't given it in a week or two, when I start my son back on it, he gets flushed and lethargic, as though there is die-off of some kind. If he's been hyper recently (yeast), the Beta Glucan sometimes gets rid of the hyperactivity. It has also helped him with constipation (yeast again, for him). But for some reason I haven't figured out, it seems to lose it's effectiveness on my son if I use it for a week or more daily. So I use it in spurts; a week on, a week off. My son is very sensitive to phenols, so I really like that there is something I can give him that seems to help with yeast/bacterial issues that isn't high in phenols. Give on an empty stomach, no food 1/2 hour either way is what I was told. I don't know of it's effectiveness in cancer. Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Are you asking for cancer or autism treatment? My son takes ojibwa tea which is good for cancer patients and children with autism, interestingly. Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 It is supposed to be for building the immune system, so I was asking for autism.
