WHAT IS IMMUNE ONEtm LARCH ARABINOGALACTAN POWDER?
LARCH ARABINOGALACTAN is a naturally occurring polysaccharide (sugar) derived from the Western Larch tree. Unlike sugars such as honey which have very small molecules, larch arabinogalactan is a very long chain of linked sugars making it a very large molecule which is not digested for energy and does not interact with insulin. Its large size (10,000-120,000 MW) gives the larch arabinogalactan its special “nutraceutical” properties, that of a plant-derived therapeutic agent. “Nutraceuticals” are nutrients which act in a pharmacological or therapeutic manner. The larch arabinogalactan (AG) properties include its ability to stimulate the activity of various types of immune cells. Arabinogalactan has been proven to stimulate the activity of NK (natural killer) cells and macrophages. Arabinogalactan polysaccharides were found to have strong immune modulating (modulating is a fine tuning and focusing of the immune system) properties with simultaneous anti-inflammatory properties.
