Beta-Glucan.

Yeast Beta-1,3/1,6-Glucan: The Queens of Functionality

Yeast-derived beta-glucan is a powerful ingredient known for its many health benefits. It strengthens the immune system, promotes healthy cholesterol levels and aids in wound healing. It is a natural and sustainable alternative to synthetic ingredients. The health and wellness industry is increasingly recognizing the benefits of beta-glucan. In the cosmetic industry, it is commonly used in creams and lotions for its anti-allergenic properties, protection of cells from oxidative damage, and boosting of the immune system.


By activating the immune system, yeast-derived beta-1,3/1,6 glucans offer several health benefits. They may help lower cholesterol levels and relieve symptoms of the common cold. In addition, preclinical studies have shown that beta-glucans can increase the effectiveness of oncological drugs (antibiotics) in cancer therapy.

Mannan.

Mannan Directly from the Depths of the Yeast Cell Wall

Mannan is a versatile ingredient used in the food and cosmetic industries as an emulsifier, thickener and stabilizer to improve product texture and consistency. It is a natural and sustainable alternative to synthetic ingredients. Researchers are exploring the potential of mannan films for sustainable packaging and extending the shelf life of food products. Mannan's ability to form highly viscous substances in contact with liquids makes it ideal for use as a fat substitute in foods and as a thickening agent in cosmetics, including high viscosity gels and hair care products.


Mannan offers various health benefits such as promoting a healthy gut flora and strengthening the immune system. It also supports digestive health, potential weight management, and has anti-inflammatory properties.
