BRM4, 60 caps

Product Description

BRM4 500 mg by Daiwa Health Development is a proprietary immune-support complex featuring Rice Bran Arabinoxylan Compound (RBAC), a polysaccharide dietary fiber derived from rice bran and enzymatically modified using an enzyme complex from shiitake mushrooms.*

RBAC has been studied as an immunomodulating dietary compound. Research indexed in PubMed has investigated its effects on several components of immune function, including natural killer (NK) cell activity, macrophage function, and other cellular immune responses.* In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving older adults, supplementation with a modified rice-bran arabinoxylan preparation increased NK-cell cytotoxic activity compared with placebo.*

Additional PubMed-indexed research has examined modified rice-bran arabinoxylan in relation to macrophage activity. Experimental research reported increased macrophage phagocytic activity following exposure to modified arabinoxylan rice bran.*

A PubMed-indexed study specifically examining BRM4 capsules described RBAC as an immunomodulator and investigated its effects in individuals receiving conventional cancer treatment. Because this was an open study with a small sample size, the findings should be considered preliminary rather than evidence that BRM4 treats cancer or other diseases.*

Each serving of 2 capsules provides 1,000 mg of proprietary RBAC blend, derived from rice bran and shiitake mushroom mycelia. Each capsule therefore provides approximately 500 mg of RBAC blend. Daiwa Health Development describes BRM4 as an immune-support formula and identifies RBAC as its active ingredient.*
