Better Way Health Beta Glucan vs AHCC®

This Immune System Supplement comparison study was published in the peer-reviewed* medical journal ATM - Annals of Translational Medicine in 2014. The study tested many of the best known products in order to see which ones are the most effective. This study, Immune-enhancing effects of Maitake (Grifola frondosa) and Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) extracts consisted of several different assays (i.e., tests) measuring the effectiveness that each product had on varying Immune System Cells.

This particular study was conducted by an immunologist from the University of Louisville named Vaclav Vetvicka, Ph.D. The results below show the comparison data of AHCC®  (Active Hexose Correlated Compound) manufactured by Amino Up Chemical Company compared to Beta Glucan by Better Way Health.

*It is important to note that the peer-review process ensures that the Scientists, PhDs, and MDs facilitating this research have no bias toward specific brands, variations, or the companies involved. Their sole purpose is to analyze the material in question and to discover how these products impact the immune system, rather than what the companies that manufacture them claim they are doing.
