Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), is a long-term condition that causes pain all over the body. FMS symptoms may also include increased sensitivity to pain, extreme tiredness, muscle stiffness, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and problems with memory and concentration. Beta 1,3/1,6 glucan in the micro glucan (MG) form is a potent antioxidant to aid in nutritionally minimizing oxidative (free radical) stress while nutritionally potentiating and normalizing the immune response and promoting phagocytosis or removal of toxins and cellular debris from the body. Beta glucan enhances white cell mobility, white cell production and pathogen destruction. Also, it enables immune system modulation by balancing on an underactive or overactive immune response.
