Arabinoxylan
Indications
Arabinoxylan is able to increase NK cell activity by as much as 300% in just a couple of weeks, whilst T and B cell activity are increased by 200 and 150% respectively. Research has also shown that it can help significantly boost natural antibody production, as well as other parameters of the immune system. This is particularly important as we age as the immune system naturally declines with age.
Research shows that Arabinoxylan also has anti-inflammatory effects and antioxidant scavenging activity, as well as the ability to improve glucose tolerance, enhance pancreatic and liver function, reduce the adverse effects of chemotherapy, and improve general quality of life.
This ability to enhance the immune system and reduce inflammation means that Arabinoxylan is an important food supplement for a variety of situations. (Please note that the majority of research has been conducted in relation to cancer, and that more research needs to be done on viral infections, bacterial infections and diabetes.)
This product is basically used for the patients who are attacked by cancer, virus, bacteria.

Description
Arabinoxylan is a trusted and proven immunomodulator made from a rice bran extract enzymatically modified with an enzyme complex from shiitake mushroom. Daiwa Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. developed this dietary supplement in the 1990’s. Since then, numerous clinical papers published in leading medical journals worldwide demonstrated and proved the immunomodulatory function of this dietary supplement. With this scientific background and established efficacy, the product has served many people worldwide, most of whom have had issues with their immune system. It is now distributed to more than 50 countries worldwide, mostly through health practitioners. Daiwa never stops their research on Arabinoxylan and new findings are coming up all the time.
Pharmacology
Arabinoxylan might work by reducing the amount of sugar and cholesterol that is absorbed in the stomach and intestines.
Dosage & Administration
The recommended dose of Arabinoxylan is 1 to 3 gram per day, taken orally.
As the body does not build up a resistance to Arabinoxylan over time, this food supplement can safely and effectively be taken over an extended period of time, and without the necessity of slowly increasing the dosage as with other immunomodulators.
Most research into Arabinoxylan has been conducted using 30 to 45 mg/kg/day in a divided dose with meals, with maintenance doses down to 15 mg/kg/day. A dosage of at least 500 mg a day should be taken for general health maintenance (unless potentised with yeast); for more serious immune support (such as in the case of arthritis, diabetes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and other infections) the recommended dosage should be 1000 mg a day; and for serious conditions where the immune system is severely compromised (such as with cancer or AIDS) 3 g per day is recommended for 1 month and then 1g per day thereafter.
Arabinoxylan should always be taken after food (ideally, 30 minutes after) and larger daily intakes should be divided into three portions and taken with breakfast, lunch and dinner. If the person taking the compound is very ill, they can stay on the 3 g per day intake for an extended period.
Apart from the case of general health maintenance, we always recommend that your doctor be informed that you are taking this supplement, so that he or she can integrate it into your treatment program. intake for an extended period.

The dose of your diabetes medication might need to be changed.
Side Effects
Arabinoxylan compound is a natural product that has no adverse or toxic side-effects, confirmed by blood tests and examinations of liver and kidney function of people who have taken high amounts of the compound over several months. The only obvious contraindication is that, as an immunomodulator, able to boost weak immune systems, it should not be taken in conjunction with any medication specifically for suppressing the immune system.
And, although mushroom enzymes are used in Arabinoxylan manufacture, there is no mushroom content in the final product, which means that nearly all those with mushroom intolerances have been able to take it without an allergic reaction. This compound has also been authorized by the Japan Health Food and Nutrition Food Association, and has passed strict evaluation standards set under the guidance of the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
