Thank you for visting this blog. My name is Mommy Lynn and I am from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Above is a picture of me when I visited Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).
My holiday to Dubai was fully paid by BE International through the BE Lifestyle Travel campaign which I’ve qualified.
Free oversea travel twice a year is one of the many benefits when you partnered with BE International to build a network marketing business.
For your information, my husband and I have been building our BE International business since March 2018.
We are now both full time in the business.
The BE International business opportunity has a wide range of health and wellness product.
One of the top selling functional food product is the Belixz Shiruto which is fully made and imported from Japan.
If you are reading this article, probably you are asking, “Can Shiruto help to relieve blocked sinus?”
In this article, I will try to answer the above question.
However, as a disclaimer, I am not a medical doctor.
The information I am sharing on this article is based on my online research and reading from reputable and trusted web pages.
I will leave hyperlinks to the web pages of my information source and also for your reference.
If you are not sure, please do your own further reading and research.
This article is for educational purposes only.
If you have health issues caused by serious illnesses, I would strongly advise you see a medical doctor.
Shiruto info
Firstly, what is Belixz Shiruto?
Shiruto means “shield” in Japanese.
It is a type of functional food for the health and wellness of our body.
Shiruto is not a medicine, therefore if you have health issues caused by serious illnesses, please seek the advice from a medical doctor.
Shiruto is a product fully made and imported from Japan.
The brand Belixz Shiruto is owned exclusively by BE International.
BE International is a licensed direct selling company based in Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur.
BE International has regional office and distribution channel in Singapore, Brunei, Hong Kong and Indonesia.
Belixz Shiruto was officially launched in Malaysia in January 2019.
Since the product launching, Shiruto has been well received in Malaysia.
What are the function and benefits of Shiruto?
Before I explain what Shiruto can do, I need to introduce you to a type of immune system cell in our body call Macrophages.
What are macrophages?
According to the National Library of Medicine:
“Macrophages are effector cells of the innate immune system that phagocytose bacteria and secrete both pro-inflammatory and antimicrobial mediators.
In addition, macrophages play an important role in eliminating diseased and damaged cells through their programmed cell death.”
Macrophages are important immune cells in our body which can do multiple function.
According to an article called “Exploring the full spectrum of macrophage activation” published on the Nature Reviews Immunology journal:
“In this Review we suggest a new grouping of macrophage populations based on three different homeostatic activities — host defence, wound healing and immune regulation.”
I got the following information from the Belixz Shiruto product catalog provided by BE International.
According to the product catalog, macrophage play different roles in the immune system such as:
1) Protect the body
2) Regulating immune system
3) Eliminate aged and abnormal cells
4) Repair cells
If you would like to get a copy of the Belixz Shiruto product catalog, please message me on my WhatsApp and I will share with you the PDF file.
Macrophages
Although macrophages are important for our immune system, sometime the cell can become in-active.
There are many reason why macrophages become in-active.
According to the Belixz Shiruto product catalog, some of the reason why macrophages become in-active are:
- Aging
- Environment pollution
- High temperature
- Low temperature
- Noise
- Lifestyle
In-active macrophages will cause immune disorder in our body.
How do we ensure macrophage function normally for 24 hours?
This is where the Belixz Shiruto function comes into the picture.
Shiruto contains a key ingredient call IP-PA1.
It stands for Immunopotentiator from Pantoea agglomerans 1.
What is IP-PA1?
Putting it in simple term, IP-PA1 is a wheat husk extract collected from a proprietary fermentation process in Japan.
What IP-PA1 does is it binds to the macrophages surface receptor call TLR4 to activate macrophages.
Back in 2011, three scientists discovered the key principles of immune system activation and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine.
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2011 was divided, one half jointly to Bruce A. Beutler and Jules A. Hoffmann “for their discoveries concerning the activation of innate immunity” and the other half to Ralph M. Steinman “for his discovery of the dendritic cell and its role in adaptive immunity.”

When in-active macrophages are activated by IP-PA1, it will continue to do its functions which are:
1) Protect the body
2) Regulating immune system
3) Eliminate aged and abnormal cells
4) Repair cells
Relieve sinus
Now, coming back to the question, can Shiruto from Japan by BE International help to relieve sinus or allergic rhinitis?
Many people, both adults and children suffer from sensitive nose which causes constants sneezing, blocked and runny nose.
Many people call this as having sinus.
But a more accurately term for the above symptoms is allergic rhinitis.
Both my husband and eldest daughter have allergic rhinitis.
They will experience constant sneezing and running nose when the surrounding air is too humid in the morning.
Their sneezing bouts are also triggered by dust in the air or in a stuffy room.
A lot of my friends and their children also have issues with allergic rhinitis.
In Bahasa Malaysia, I believe it is called resdung.
What is the cause of allergic rhinitis?
According to NHS Inform, Scotland’s national health information service:
Allergic rhinitis is inflammation of the inside of the nose caused by an allergen, such as pollen, dust, mould, or flakes of skin from certain animals.
According to John Hopkins Medicine:
When a harmless substance such as dust, mold, or pollen is encountered by a person who is allergic to that substance, the immune system may over react by producing antibodies that “attack” the allergen. The can cause wheezing, itching, runny nose, watery or itchy eyes, and other symptoms.
When our nose is exposed to allergen, it will trigger our immune system.
Sometimes, our immune system over-reacts which leads to wheezing, itching, runny nose, watery or itchy eyes.
All in all it blocks your nose and making you hard to breath.
One of the function of macrophages, which is help to regulate immune system, can help to calm down our trigged immune system.
Testimonial
For your information, me, my husband and both our daughters have been taking the Shiruto functional food from Japan daily.
One thing that I can share is that I did notice a significant reduction of sneezing and blocked nose for my eldest daughter.
When she was young, my eldest daughter will have to visit the pediatric at least once every 6 months for a bad case of hay fever or allergic rhinitis.
She would have to go on MC for 1 – 2 days due to fever and feeling lethargic.
The doctor also recommended Avamys nasal spray to help with her allergy.
As a mother, I am not fond of giving medicines with corticosteroids to my kids.
If possible, I would rather have their immune system heal their body naturally.
After we’ve started giving my daughter 1 sachet of Shiruto every night, I can honestly say her nose allergy has gone away.
Can Shiruto help you or your family member relieve their allergic rhinitis?
To be honest, I do not know.
What worked for others may or may not work for you because everyone’s condition is different.
The only way to know the effectiveness of Shiruto on you is to try it yourself.
Nonetheless, I hope my sharing above has been helpful for you.
