Not really, but I mentioned there are fights between the mushroom glucan groups and yeast glucan groups and about which is better. There was also a fight about which size is better. There was a time when we first tried to inject the glucan, which later we found it is not the ideal way to do it. And also we didn’t know how the whole process worked. As I mentioned, how it goes through the cells and how the cells will distribute it slowly. We couldn’t imagine how the big, really large glucans would be able to do something with the cells. So there was kind of an idea that smaller might be better. But now we know exactly how the cells are chewing it up into smaller pieces and releasing it and it is caught again and it goes back and forth. So there is absolutely no reason to believe a smaller glucan would do any better action.
Most probably it’s not. You have to remember that a lot of companies are to some extent hiding behind claims of patented manufacturing processes. They are not actually lying, they have the patents on how to make it. It is rather easy to get a patent on manufacturing glucan. Because at one step if you change the temperature, you immediately have a new process and you get a patent for it. It still doesn’t say the glucan is better and very few companies have patents on glucans showing that this particular glucan that they make is better in activity than the other glucans. So you can say whatever you want, the internet will accept a lot of things, a lot of statements. But if you cannot back it up with good science, it’s just your private statement.
