Clinical Summary

MGN-3 is a proprietary product derived from rice bran. Promoters of MGN-3 claim that it improves immune function against cancer and AIDS. Polysaccharides are the primary ingredients and are thought to increase the levels of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma secretion, and augment natural killer (NK) cell function in vitro. In vitro and studies in mice have shown that MGN-3 facilitates apoptosis of human T cell leukemia cells, sensitizes human breast cancer cells to a chemo drug, and protects against cisplatin-induced weight loss.
Improved immunomodulatory function was observed with use of MGN-3 in a small study of cancer patients but the clinical significance is not known. MGN-3 did not improve symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome. Further research is warranted.
No adverse effects have been reported following consumption of MGN-3.
