HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Beta Glucan (1,3/1,6) by Priority One Nutritional Supplements
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: Beta (1,3/1,6) D-Glucan, a type of soluble fiber derived from yeast and mushrooms. The capsule also holds silicon dioxide as an inactive ingredient and is made from vegetarian material.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Beta-glucans show likely effectiveness for two conditions: high cholesterol (dyslipidemia) and coronary heart disease. The evidence supports that this ingredient may help reduce cholesterol levels and support heart health.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Beta-glucans from food sources are generally well tolerated. However, concentrated supplements like this one lack extensive safety data, so caution is advised — start low and monitor how you feel.
During breastfeeding, there's little research on supplement doses, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this if you're on blood pressure medications (antihypertensives) or immunosuppressant drugs. Beta-glucans may lower blood pressure and could interfere with immune-suppressing therapy — both Moderate-severity concerns.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is worth considering if you're interested in supporting cholesterol and heart health, and you don't take blood pressure medications or immunosuppressants. If you do take either of those types of drugs, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
Because concentrated supplements lack robust safety data, it's smart to discuss this with your own healthcare provider before starting.

Beta Glucan (1,3/1,6) by Priority One Nutritional Supplements Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Beta Glucan (1,3/1,6) by Priority One Nutritional Supplements interacts with two categories of medications.
The most serious concern is with blood pressure medications (antihypertensives) — beta-glucans may lower blood pressure on their own, so taking them together could push your pressure too low. If you're on a blood pressure medication, your doctor or pharmacist needs to know before you add this.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Beta-glucans also interact with immunosuppressant drugs (medications that weaken your immune system intentionally, often after organ transplant or for certain autoimmune conditions). Because beta-glucans appear to stimulate immune activity, they might work against what those medications are trying to do.
Again, this is something to clear with your doctor or pharmacist first.
Altogether, these interactions span 293 individual medications. Use the medication checker below to look up your exact drugs before you start.
