1 NEW HEALTH HEALTH DRINK HELP YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM HELP YOU.118/Pkit BUNKER A GIFT FROM NATURE

2 A wise mon should consider that health Is the greatest of human blessings. - Hippocrates - Health and Disease The human body is a marvellous organism. An average healthy adult has about 60 trillion cells working harmoniously in dynamic equilibrium to sustain life.when this equilibrium or "homeostasis" is maintained, our cells, tissues, organs and the body systems will function properly, resulting in a state of good health. If our cells are not healthy, then they cannot maintain the harmonious balance to function normally, especially when threatened by the external environment, and the body will succumb to disease, maybe even death. Our Immune System and Beta Giucan Our immune system is our body's natural defence that protects us against any threats to our health. It is able to:- recognise and destroy foreign invaders (eg. bacteria, viruses and fungi): 'recognise and destroy abnormal cells; remove cellular debris and toxins; promote hcaling,growth and regeneration. However, many people suffer from an impaired immune system that cannot recognise or respond to a health threat, which is often allowed to remain unchecked in the body until it becomes life-threatening. As we sometimes lack the discipline and will power to upkeep our immune system through proper diet, moderate exercise. adequate rest and stress management, the easiest way is to choose the right dietary supplement that can enhance our human immune function. Research over the last fifty \\ years has shown that Beta Glucan is one of the most powerful natural immuneenhancing substance in existence. '*0 of Belo Moteculor structure Glucon from mushroom

Disease DISEASE AdWATE & -sr SETA GLUCAN DAILY Mushrooms and Beta Glucar The use of mushrooms intraditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) dates back into antiquity. Mushrooms that demonstrate medicinal properties include the elixir of life "Ling Zhi" or "Reishi" (Ganoderrna lucidium) and gaining popularity in recent years, the mushroom of God "Himematsutake" (Agaricus blazei). These mushrooms are believed to enhance the immune response, thereby increasing resistance to disease and also causing regression of the disease state. Scientific and medical research has confirmed its remarkable efficacies. The most important class of bio-active compounds that has been identified in mushrooms is the Beta Glucans, What is Beta Glucan? Beta Glucan is a natural polysaccharide (complex sugar molecule) made up a chain of many glucose sugar units. It is referred to as a biological response modifier (BR M) because of its ability to potentiate the immune system. Research suggests that Beta Glucan is one of the safest immunomodulators available for human consumption. Beta Glucan is only found in nature,and cannot be synthesized in the laboratory, Sources of Beta Glucan Beta Glucans occur naturally in some fungi and plants as components of the cell wall. Common sources are medicinal mushrooms, baker's yeast and grains such as oats and barley.

4 Beta Glucan Research In the 1960s, a study group of Tulane University. School of Medicine headed by Dr Nicholas DiLuzio, discovered that the active substance in baker's yeast that had significant antitumor effect was Beta Glucan. Since then, much research has been carried out with over 3000 published studies on Beta Glucan to-date, many from well known Universities (Tokyo. Harvard, Louisville). Mode of Actior: Research at Harvard University showed that the Macrophage (type of immune cell) has receptor sites (binding sites) on its surface specific to Beta Glucan. Beta Glucan acts like a"key", that when lodged onto the receptor site, activates the macrophage. The macrophage then initiates its many functions including:- phagocytosis (ability to engulf foreign and abnormal cells and particles); detoxification; release of cytokines (intercellular "messengers") to boost production of immune cells and other supporting substances. Basically, a whole cascade of chemical events unfolds which mobilises our body's full arsenal of defence. Unlike other agents that stimulate the immune system, Beta Glucan does not push the system to over-reactivity so there is no danger of overdoses. How Beta Glucan Can Help You Below are some the major areas of scientific and medical research on Beta Glucan that have yielded significant, if not remarkable results. * Cancer * Bacterial,Viral, Fungal and Parasitic Infections * Wound Healing andtissue Repair * Radiation Exposure * Post-Surgery * Anti-Aging Beta Glucan is a broad spectrum immune system nutritional supplement. Instead of treating the illness, it treats our immune system, which is then capable of dealing with the greatest of health issues.

5 BUNKER li Glucan Health Drink is made from highly purified Beta Gluten extracted from specially selected medicinal mushrooms, known for their most powerful immune enhancing properties. These Include Agaricus blazei (Himematsutake), Ganoderma lucidium (Ling Zhi or Relshi), Cordyceps sinensis, and Schizophyllum commune. Agoricus blazei (Himeniatsutake) The Beta Glucan in Bunker Glum) Health Drink is produced using advanced technology in mushroom mycelia cultivation that ensures quality, purity and consistency. Bunker II-Glucan Health Drink, formulated and packaged in Western Australia. contains at least 20,000 ppm of pure Beta Glucan. It is lightly carbonated with a pleasant fruity flavour making it a refreshing and nutritious dietary supplement. Unlike most products in the market. the Beta Glucan in Bunker 11. Glucan Health Drink is highly purified and highly soluble.as such, it has a very high blo-absorption rate, Beta Glucan in the drink can even be absorbed by applying externally on the skin. Gonoderma lucidium (Ling Zhl or Red Reishi) i " Schizophyllum commune You will soon see positive changes in your health. Every person is unique and so is every immune system, Cordyceps sinensis

6 Safety/Contraindications The US Food and Drug Adminstration (FDA) has given Beta Glucan a GRAS rating (Generally Regarded As Safe). It is nontoxic and does not promote any harmful side effects. There are no known adverse effects when taken in conjunction with pharmacological or herbal remedies. Although Beta Glucan in Bunker Vii-Glucan Health Drink is derived from mushrooms, it is highly purified and does not contain proteins in mushrooms that would cause an allergic reaction to individuals sensitive to mushrooms. Common Recovery Signs and Symptoms to Expect When Beta Glucan activates and strengthens our immune system, healing is initiated.toxins are ejected from the body. dead and diseased tissues are removed, and new tissues are regenerated. Vital energy channels (nerves, blood vessels, body fluid) are cleared of blockages.these may be presented as recovery symptoms such as heaviness of the head, aches arid pain, diarrhoea, constipation, belching, flatulence, decreased appetite, or epistasis. It is part of the natural healing process.take Beta Glucan regularly and you will not regret.your health will continue to improve and you will on gain hack your optimum health.
