BioBran MGN-3 is a natural food supplement renowned for its exceptional ability to boost the immune system and aid cellular repair. Pioneered by Daiwa Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. in Japan over three decades ago, BioBran MGN-3 has been extensively researched by immunologists such as Professor Mamdooh Ghoneum from Drew University of Medicine and Science in Los Angeles. Professor Ghoneum has published numerous peer-reviewed papers on this functional food's remarkable effects on immunity.
BioBran MGN-3 Arabinoxylan is a modified rice bran developed through a patented process that breaks it down into shorter-chain polysaccharides using powerful enzymes from the shiitake mushroom. This transformation converts indigestible rice bran molecules into smaller, absorbable hemicelluloses, primarily arabinoxylan. These water-soluble molecules can enter the bloodstream via the small intestine without requiring digestion, allowing them to effectively stimulate the immune system.
The health benefits of certain fibres are well known; for example, a high-fibre diet can help lower cholesterol. However, the primary benefits of fibre are often limited due to its inability to be absorbed. With BioBran MGN-3, the fibre is broken down using shiitake mushroom enzymes, making it soluble and absorbable by the body, thereby releasing and magnifying its benefits. Indeed, BioBran MGN-3 has been shown to stimulate weak immunity more powerfully and safely than any other supplement.
BioBran MGN-3 safely enhances the production of cytokines—interferons, interleukins, and tumour necrosis factor—that play a crucial role in regulating immune responses. These substances help the body defend itself against rogue cells and infections, and can also activate various lymphocytes, such as natural killer (NK) cells, T cells, and B cells, which are fundamental to immune system function and response. Moreover, BioBran MGN-3 can do this without overstimulating immune function—it does not make an already strong immune system excessively active.
A strong immune system is essential for overall health and well-being. The immune system is a complex network comprising trillions of white blood cells, antibodies, bone marrow, cytokines, and the thymus gland. It defends the body against millions of microbes encountered daily and eliminates cells that are functioning abnormally. However, its activity can be severely diminished by factors such as chronic stress, illness (especially infections and chronic conditions), and certain intensive medical treatments, which can impair our body's ability to stay healthy or restore health. A weakened immune system can have serious consequences.
By supporting the activity of key immune cells, BioBran MGN-3 helps the body restore and enhance its immune defence, increasing our capacity to resist and combat illness and recover more rapidly. This is why BioBran MGN-3 is one of the most popular natural immunomodulators available—it works effectively to boost the immune system and improve immunity.
Many other so-called immune system supplements are backed more by marketing than science. However, BioBran MGN-3 is now supported by over 70 peer-reviewed research papers in scientific and medical journals—a number that increases every few months—and it has a proven track record of clinical use around the world. This scientific pedigree is almost unique for proprietary and completely safe natural food supplements, making BioBran MGN-3 the choice of practitioners for boosting weak immune systems.
BioBran MGN-3 can be safely added to most daily health-maintenance regimes and recovery protocols to increase the resilience and vitality of the body and mind when immunity is stressed, which directly translates to feelings of being low, weak, and tired. Therefore, it can bolster our general health maintenance as well as support us when we have infections and more serious chronic health conditions known to sap our vitality and compromise the immune system.
Please note: Biobran is not a bran supplement but a specific formulation extracted from bran that dissolves in water. This means it is suitable for those with sensitive stomachs and those needing to avoid high-fibre.
As mentioned above, extensive clinical research supports the efficacy of BioBran MGN-3. Studies conducted at esteemed institutions like UCLA/Drew University in the United States and various Japanese universities have been published in leading medical journals, principally by Professor Mamdooh Ghoneum, a renowned and widely published immunologist who regards BioBran MGN-3 as the most effective and safest immune system supplement he has ever tested.

BioBran MGN-3 is a natural product with no reported toxicity or adverse side effects, even at high doses over extended periods. Although shiitake mushroom enzymes are used in its production, the final product contains no detectable mushroom content, making it suitable for most individuals with mushroom allergies. It has also been approved by the Japanese Health Food and Nutrition Food Association under the supervision of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The only contraindication is obviously not to take it if taking immunosuppressants.
BioBran MGN-3 is available in 50 x 250mg tablet blister packs, and 30 & 105 x 1000mg (1g) powder sachets. Gram for gram, there is no difference in effectiveness between the powder and tablets. Generally those taking smaller quantities prefer the convenience of tablets whilst those taking larger quantities prefer sachets. (The powder in water is palatable.)
BioBran MGN-3 Arabinoxylan offers a significant natural approach to enhancing the immune system and improving overall immunity. Its unique formulation allows for better absorption and utilisation of immune-boosting compounds, providing a safe and effective supplement for those seeking to improve their immune system and overall health. Whether for general wellness or as a complement to conventional treatments, BioBran MGN-3 stands as a valuable addition to health maintenance strategies focused on boosting immunity.
Biobran sachet ingredients (max dose): Biobran Arabinoxylan compound (1000mg per sachet), Microcrystaline Cellulose (bulking agent), Dextrin (stabiliser), Corn Starch (stabiliser), Tricalcium Phosphate (anti-caking agent).
Biobran tablet ingredients: Biobran Arabinoxylan compound (250mg per tablet), Microcystalline Cellulose (bulking agent ), Cornstarch (stabiliser), Cocoa Powder (colour), Glycerol Ester of Fatty Acids (emulsifier), Dextrin (stabilizer), Tricalcium Phosphate (anti-caking agent), Silicon Dioxide (anti-caking agent).
Another advantage of BioBran MGN-3 is that it retains its effectiveness in the body even after a prolonged period of use - in other words, there is none of the usual drop-off effects over time experienced with most other food supplements. BioBran is also highly absorbable, safe, GMO-free and contains no actual mushroom in the finished product, which means it can be taken by those with mushroom intolerances. (The only situation when one should avoid using this product is obviously in conjunction with immunosuppressants.)
