- Product Highlights
- The unique composition of multiple polysaccharides, including β-1,3/1,6-glucan, has been clinically shown to support a healthy immune system, a healthy bone environment and improved mobility. Due to the potent efficacy of the ingredient, only a small daily dose of 150mg is necessary to provide signi¬ficant health benefits.
- In regard to bone health, Polycan® is the only ingredient in the nutraceutical space specifically targeting a healthy balance between key biomarkers in bone health; osteoblasts (for bone formation) and osteoclasts (for bone resorption).
- This balance is increasingly difficult to maintain as humans age and bone density naturally declines. The published Polycan® studies provide compelling evidence that supplementing with just 150mg daily will significantly increase the output of osteoblasts while decreasing the output of osteoclasts.
- In regard to immune health, compelling results from a human study published in 2018 yielded statistically significant end points. It was found that supplementing with just 150mg of β-glucan rich Polycan® daily significantly reduced the duration of cold and flu symptoms versus placebo.
- In regard to joint health, a 2019 published double blind placebo controlled 60-person study found that just a 50mg dose of Polycan® in combination with 1500mg glucosamine was more than 50% as effective as glucosamine alone.
- As humans continue to live longer, better mobility, a stronger immune system and healthier bones are key to a happy life. Polycan® should be a primary ingredient within the portfolio of all nutraceutical brands.
