Our modern diet is not what it used to be and capturing the vast amount of nutrients the body needs to function well through food alone is not always easy. It requires strategic choices, but even then, nutrient absorption isn’t guaranteed.

Това е фантастичен термин за вид разтворими фибри. Състои се от захарни молекули (полизахариди), естествено разположени в клетъчните стени на бактерии, гъбички, дрожди, водорасли, лишеи и растения. Овесените ядки са с високо съдържание на фибри, съдържащи бета глюкан, а също така ще намерите големи количества от тях в пшеницата, пълнозърнестите храни, морските водорасли, водораслите и гъбите шийтаке. Бета-глюканите са възхвалявани за поредица от ползи за здравето, от поддръжка на червата до имунитет. Ето защо бета-глюканите се въвеждат в хранителните добавки. Тялото също не произвежда бета-глюкани.

Eating a balanced diet is the best way to capture the necessary vitamins and minerals. But given the broad mix of essential nutrients and the varying diets in modern lifestyle, consuming enough vitamins and minerals through food alone isn’t always possible.
