Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialOwing to the limited number of human and mechanistic studies, we recommend a multidisciplinary approach integrating expertise in food processing, analytical chemistry, and microbiology to further elucidate their potential to improve health through gut microbiome modulation.3Keigler Johanna I. (2026)Myco-foods and the gut microbiome: impacts of mycelial extracts, biomass, and mold-fermented foods
Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialSpecifically, a longitudinal study examined for changes to the gut microbiota and metabolites of 15 healthy subjects who consumed 4.5 g CG daily for three weeks.The intake of CG was associated with changes in the relative abundance of nine microbial genera, including significant increases in, andand decreases inandIncreases in the fecal levels of the SCFAs butyric, caproic, and isovaleric acids were also reported.3Keigler Johanna I.

Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialSupplementation with H(via water) was associated with improved glucose and lipid metabolism in a clinical trial.Thus, hydrogen production may be one mechanism through which fungal fiber fermentation by the gut microbiota influences host metabolism.3Keigler Johanna I.

Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialMany compounds with medicinal importance (such as antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and statins) have been extracted or derived from molds, includingandspecies.However, mycelial extracts from edible molds are also of interest because of their high fiber and other bioactive contents.3Keigler Johanna I.

Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialPreclinical and emerging clinical evidence supports broad therapeutic potential across multiple disease domains, including inflammatory bowel disease, metabolic disorders, respiratory infections, and cancer.4Samiksha F (2026)Fungal β-1,3-glucans: Cell Wall Constituents That Promote Gut Health Through Innate Immune Modulation.
Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialFungal β-1,3-glucans are structurally conserved polysaccharide components of the fungal cell wall that exhibit potent immunomodulatory activity.4Samiksha F (2026)Fungal β-1,3-glucans: Cell Wall Constituents That Promote Gut Health Through Innate Immune Modulation.
Beta Glucan Gut Microbiome Randomized TrialThese molecules are recognized by pattern recognition receptors, Toll-like receptors, complement receptor 3, lactosylceramide, scavenger receptors, and EphA2.4Samiksha F (2026)Fungal β-1,3-glucans: Cell Wall Constituents That Promote Gut Health Through Innate Immune Modulation.
