NCT ID NCT07104929

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a daily beta glucan supplement, taken for 12 weeks, could improve markers of biological and immune age in 60 healthy adults aged 40 and older. Participants took two capsules of Beta Glucan 500 each day. Researchers measured changes in epigenetic markers linked to aging. The goal was to see if this simple supplement might help slow the aging process.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Beta glucan (a type of fiber from yeast or mushrooms, taken as a dietary supplement)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple supplement that helps slow or reverse some signs of aging at the cellular level.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early pilot study with no placebo group, so results may be due to chance. The supplement is not a proven anti-aging treatment.
