 
- How
does Wellness NOW work?
- BetaRight
WGP, the active ingredient in Wellness NOW, prepares the body’s immune
system to recognize and respond to any health challenges. Wellness NOW
does not initiate an immune response in the way that a vaccination or
other dietary supplements might. Rather, Wellness NOW primes the white
blood cells to better recognize and attack these foreign invaders. By
supporting the immune function, Wellness NOW facilitates the body’s
effort to maintain and restore health.
- Who
should take Wellness NOW?
- Anybody
who is concerned about wellness and maintaining their health, as
everyone can benefit from a stronger immune system. Wellness NOW is an
all-natural way to keep your body’s immune system working at peak
performance. Wellness NOW is ideal for teachers, day care workers,
frequent flyers, health care workers, flight attendants, travelers,
business people and anyone else who finds themselves in environments
where germs thrive. New research also shows that the active ingredient
in Wellness NOW is effective in helping your body recover from
stress-related immune system dysfunction; specifically stress
experienced by athletes, both professional and enthusiasts.

- What
is
the active ingredient in Wellness NOW?
- The
active ingredient in Wellness NOW is BetaRight WGP, a proprietary blend
of beta 1,3/1,6 glucan, which is extracted from baker’s yeast.
BetaRight WGP is highly refined to remove fats, proteins, mannans,
mannoproteins and ash -- it is the most pure source of beta 1,3/1,6
glucan commercially available.
- What
is
BetaRight WGP (beta 1,3/1,6 glucan)?
- Beta
1,3/1,6 glucan is a dietary fiber. Most dietary fibers pass
through your digestive tract without being absorbed. However,
there is a small section of your small intestines capable of absorbing
beta 1,3/1,6 glucan which allow beta 1,3/1,6 glucan to be used by your
body to strengthen your immune system. Since the area that can
absorb beta 1,3/1,6 glucan is so small and impurities can block
absorption, it is vital to choose a highly purified beta 1,3/1,6 glucan
such as Beta Right WGP – the most pure beta 1,3/1,6 glucan available.
- Is
BetaRight WGP better than beta 1,3/1,6 glucan from mushrooms (fungus)?
- Yes,
a
recent clinical study has shown that BetaRight WGP outperforms mushroom
(or fungal) sources of beta 1,3/1,6 glucan. BetaRight WGP has two
primary advantages over beta 1,3/1,6 glucans from mushrooms: 1. Higher
purity: BetaRight WGP is more than 75% pure vs. 20-30% purity for
mushrooms). 2. BetaRight WGP is benefit a wider variety of immune cells
whereas beta 1,3/1,6 glucan for mushrooms primarily benefit only one
type of immune cell.
- Is
Wellness NOW safe?
- Yes.
BetaRight WGP, the active ingredient in Wellness NOW, is an all-natural
extract from baker’s yeast. The FDA has approved yeast extracts as
Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) food ingredients.
- I
am
allergic to yeast, can I take Wellness NOW?
- Wellness
NOW is yeast-allergen free. Allergic reactions to yeast are
normally caused by proteins which are removed along with fats, mannans,
mannoproteins and ash during the extensive refining process used to
manufacture BetaRight WGP, the active ingredient in Wellness NOW.
If you are concerned about a known or suspected yeast allergy, it is
important to consult your physician or health care provider before
taking this dietary supplement.
- Can
BetaRight WGP cause yeast infections (Candida)?
- No.
Wellness NOW and BetaRight WGP will not increase the risk of
Candida. The BetaRight WGP that used to make Wellness NOW comes
from a species of yeast called Saccharomyces cerevisiae which
is completely different from the species of yeast that causes Candida
(there are 20 different species of Candida; the most common
being Candida albicans).
- Can
Wellness NOW be taken with other medications?
- Yes.
Wellness NOW is an all-natural dietary supplement with no known
interaction with any medications and therefore can be taken safely with
other medications, prescription or over the counter. Should you have
any questions about taking Wellness NOW, you should consult your
physician or health care provider.
- How
is
the daily serving size for Wellness NOW determined?
- The
daily
serving size is based on scientific research that shows 2 mg of
BetaRight WGP per kilogram of body weight (1 kg = 2.25 lbs) is
sufficient to keep the immune system primed to ward off attacks. Please
refer to the serving size chart for the specific Wellness NOW formula
you are interested in for more information. Increasing the daily dosage
will accelerate BetaRight WGP’s priming of the immune system and may be
appropriate when symptoms of an illness first appear or you know your
risk of getting sick is higher.
- Should
I
take Wellness NOW daily for it to be most effective?
- Yes,
Millions of the body’s white blood cells are being renewed each day and
as a result the immune system functions best when Wellness NOW is taken
daily. A daily dose primes the new and maturing immune cells to
recognize and respond to foreign invaders and fight them off.
- For
extra
protection, can I consume more than Recommended Serving Size per day?
- Yes.
While research has shown the Recommended Serving Size keeps the immune
system prepared to respond to common daily health challenges,
increasing the daily servings may be appropriate when symptoms of an
illness first appear or when you know your risk of getting sick is
higher, for example: during the cold season, while traveling, when in
contact with sick individuals, etc.
- How
will
I know Wellness NOW works?
- After
several days of taking Wellness NOW your body’s immune system will
already be better prepared to respond to health challenges. With
continued use of Wellness NOW you will notice the benefits of an
enhanced immune system: faster recovery from, and not being as
susceptible to health challenges.
- Are
the
immune enhancing benefits supported by scientific research?
- Yes.
The
safety and effectiveness of BetaRight WGP is supported by more than
$250 million in research at leading universities and government
institutions. To review this research, click

- How
important is the purity of the BetaRight WGP used in Wellness NOW?
- Beta
glucan must be highly refined to be effective. The patented beta glucan
used to formulate BetaRight WGP is the most highly refined beta glucan
commercially available. The refining process removes fats,
proteins and other compounds which can pose a safety risk to sensitive
individuals. For some sensitive individuals taking a less-refined form
of beta glucan, as may be found in other products on the market, could
trigger an allergic reaction.
- Will
taking Wellness NOW over-stimulate my immune system?
- No.
Wellness NOW does not activate or stimulate the body’s immune system.
Rather, Wellness NOW prepares the body’s natural defenses to respond at
peak efficiency to daily health challenges.
- Can
pregnant and lactating women safety take Wellness NOW?
- There
are
no known adverse side effects for pregnant and lactating women taking
Wellness NOW. However, since this group was not included in clinical
trials it is best to consult your physician or health care provider
prior to consumption.
