What is beta glucan? Beta-glucan is a polysaccharide (multiple sugar) that occurs in the cell walls of cereals, bacteria and fungi and is one of the indigestible dietary fibers. Beta Glucan and Cholesterol A number of clinical studies have also been published on the positive effect of beta-glucan on blood lipid levels. For example, physicians at the University of Minnesota (USA) administered 6 grams of beta-glucan from oats daily to men and women with high cholesterol levels. A control group, on the other hand, received glucose daily. After 6 weeks, the total cholesterol level, especially the LDL cholesterol level, had decreased significantly in the beta-glucan group. (Source: Queenan et al. Concentrated oat beta-glucan, a fermentable fiber, lowers serum cholesterol in hypercholesterolemic adults in a randomized controlled trial, Nutr J. 2007 Mar 26, 6:6.) In its scientific opinion on health claims for beta-glucan and its effect on cholesterol levels, the competent body of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) determined that there is a connection between the consumption of Beta-glucan from oats and a reduction in LDL levels in the blood. The positive effect occurs with a daily intake of 3g of beta-glucans from oats, oat bran, barley or barley bran or from mixtures of these cereals.

Botanical: Echinacea purpureaSanskrit: Kariyat German: RotsonnenhutThe name Echinacea is derived from the Greek word echinos (= hedgehog). It expresses the resemblance of the prickly, arching base of the flower to a hedgehog.Where does Echinacea come from? Echinacea has been known in American public health for centuries. For example, the Native American tribes of Nebraska and Missouri (Sioux, Omaha, Oto, Kew, Osage, and others) used the plant for a variety of everyday mishaps. In the 1920s, interest and demand in Europe were so great that seeds were imported from America. The plant should also be cultivated and researched here. Up to this point, only the fresh flowering plants, including the roots, of Echinacea angustifolia had been used. As a result of a mix-up, however, it was not the Echinacea angustifolia seed that was ordered that made it to Europe, but the Echinacea purpurea seed. As a result, there is the most experience with the plant here. Echinacea according to TCM: Tonifies the spleen qi in spleen qi deficiency Alleviates sweatiness when the wind is cold outside Clears heat Ingredients of Echinacea Echinacea contains polysaccharides, proteins, tannins, iron, and copper. The plant also contains vitamins A, C, and E, as well as fatty acids. It contains aromatic oils. Tip: For external use, the capsules can be opened to make an infusion.

L-lysine: an important building block of the organism This dietary supplement from Fairvital provides the high-dose amino acid L-lysine. One capsule provides you with 500mg L-lysine or 1000mg L-lysine with a daily dose of two capsules. Lysine is an essential and proteinogenic amino acid and cannot be produced by the body itself. It must therefore be ingested with food if possible, but it can also be very well supplemented with dietary supplements if there is an increased need. L-lysine was first isolated from casein in 1889 by the biochemist Edmund Drechsel. However, his student Max Siegfried published the composition of the amino acid two years later. The Nobel Prize winner, chemist and professor of organic chemistry Emil Fischer presented the final chemical structural formula together with his assistant Fritz Weigert in 1902. Lysine as a building block of collagen Lysine is primarily known as a building block of collagen, which is an essential structural protein in the body. Collagen is in turn a component of skin, bones and connective tissue. Collagen can also be found in cartilage, tendons, ligaments and cell membranes. Other functions of lysine The primary function of the proteinogenic amino acid is the formation of diverse proteins. In addition to collagen, it is also required for the build-up of enzymes and hormones and is a component of plasma proteins. Important proteins in the blood are, for example, hemoglobin (transports oxygen), transferrin (transports iron), lipoproteins (transports fats) and a protein that binds to retinol and thus transports vitamin A. Furthermore, L-lysine is part of the so-called Coagulation factors, which are responsible for normal blood clotting. The immune system's immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are also dependent on an adequate supply of L-lysine. Lysine in food As a protein component, lysine is found in particularly high amounts in protein-rich foods. High levels of protein are primarily found in foods of animal origin. Good sources of lysine are therefore dairy products such as cottage cheese and cheese, as well as eggs, pork and products made from it, beef, and fish. strong> such as sardines, tuna and carp. Plant sources of L-lysine include soybeans and other legumes such as beans, chickpeas and lentils, peanuts, grains such as rye, bran and oatmeal and baker's yeast.
