Application
Larch Arabinogalactan, a plant-derived biopolymer, is an excellent dietary fiber that has been shown to increase the production of short-chain fatty acids, principally butyrate and propionate, and to decrease the generation and absorption of ammonia. Larch arabinogalactan can stimulate natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity, enhance other functional aspects of the immune system, and inhibit the metastasis of tumor cells to the liver.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Dietary fiber that enhances immune system function by stimulating natural killer (NK) cell activity.

Larch arabinogalactan is composed of greater than 98-percent arabinogalactan, a highly branched polysaccharide consisting of a galactan backbone with side-chains of galactose and arabinose sugars. Larch arabinogalactan is an excellent source of dietary fiber, and has been approved as such
