Arabinogalactan

Arabinogalactan - 90 Caps, 180 Capsules | Pure Encapsulations | Supplement to Support Liver, Immune System, Digestive System and Colon Health

Arabinogalactan from pure encapsulations is a unique plant-derived dietary supplement that supports optimal immune system function and digestive health. It has been shown to help activate specific immune cells, maintains healthy microflora levels, and promote overall health.

Arabinogalactan is a fermentable fiber found in North American larches and is responsible for the immune-boosting effects of echinacea. Arabinogalactan is the active component of echinacea. It is a plant sugar (polysaccharide) that supports immune cells, so it may support the body's first line of defense.

Research conducted at the University of Minnesota revealed that AG stimulated immune cells more effectively than echinacea. Another recent, randomized 4-week trial in healthy adults suggested that AG also potentiates the complement system, another mechanism of defense in the body. In the colon, AG enhances the growth of friendly microflora such as lactobacillus and bifidobacteria. Antioxidants such as vitamin C may support arabinogalactan activity.

A recent study suggests that Arabinogalactan, the active ingredient in Ganoderma lucidum, is a potent supplement and the most powerful natural defense against a damaged or toxic gut environment.

Arabinogalactan is an antioxidant compound with demonstrated ability to support a healthy environment for the liver. Animal and human studies also indicate that AG supports a healthy environment for the body by protecting cells from oxidative damage.
