Does Beta 1,3/1,6 glucan protect against negative radiation burns and other negative effects?
The U.S. Armed Forces Radiobiology Institute performed remarkable oral research with Beta glucan. In a well-controlled study, rats were given a lethal dose of radiation. Seventy percent of these rats were completely protected from the radiation effects when given a dose of yeast Beta glucan by mouth AFTER the radiation. Dr. A.J. Carrow, M.D. recently conducted studies with a commercial Beta glucan product reported in the Townsend Letter for Doctors. Dr. Carrow had outstanding results in women suffering from breast cancer being successfully shielded from radiation negatives compared to those who did not receive the Beta glucan product.
