What is Fucoidan ?

Fucoidan’ is a type of water-soluble dietary fiber with a unique slippery component found only in brown algae such as kelp, seaweed (mekabu) and mozuku among seaweeds. Chemically, it is a high-molecular polysaccharide that mainly takes the course after sulfation. In addition to fucose, galactose, mannose, xylose, and uronic acid are combined. The name ‘fucoidan’ is not attached to substances with the same structure, but is used as a generic term for high molecular weight polysaccharides whose main component is fucose.

Currently, research on 'Fucoidan' is being actively conducted, and it is found that it has various physiological functions such as anticancer activity, cholesterol lowering action, blood pressure lowering action, and antiviral action.

12 Benefits of Fucoidan

First, it helps osteoarthritis symptoms. Results from a trial study involving 12 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. After taking 100 mg of fucoidan supplement for three months, arthritis symptoms were relieved by 18%. A 52% improvement in symptoms has been reported when doses of more than 1,000 mg were administered. However, according to another study, the administration of 255 mg of fucoidan had no effect, so there may be a difference in efficacy depending on the dose of fucoidan.

Second, fucoidan helps fight cancer. Fucoidan may be beneficial to patients battling cancer by increasing the activation of immune cells and the production of anticancer immune cells. The biggest problem with cancer cells is that they do not die on their own, but proliferate indefinitely. According to the paper, fucous fucoidan extracted from bladderwrack, a type of brown algae, induces cancer cells to self-destruct. According to the research results, the cancers in which fucoidan induces cancer cell death are breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, thyroid cancer, and leukemia.

Third, fucoidan can prevent blood clots. A thrombus is a clot of blood that has hardened in a blood vessel. When blood clots become severe, they can lead to dangerous vascular diseases, such as stroke and acute myocardial infarction. Studies have shown that fucoidan can block the blood clotting process. In a pilot study involving 20 volunteers, it was reported that after 12 days of administration of 2,250 mg of fucoidan, fucoidan interfered with the final stage of the clotting process, resulting in reduced clotting of blood clots.

Fourth, fucoidan has antiviral properties. Fucoidan is reported to protect the body from various types of viruses. Evidence for the effectiveness of fucoidan against viruses includes: According to reports through animal experiments, it has the ability to inhibit or prevent influenza A, herpes, dengue virus, AIDS, leukemia virus, etc.

Fifth, fucoidan helps protect the brain. In animal experiments, fucoidan has been shown to have the effect of preventing brain-related diseases. It has been reported that fucoidan delayed the onset of the disease in rats infected with scrapie, one of the brain diseases.Fucoidan prevented neuronal death by β-amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease. It is reported that fucoidan prevented the hyperactivity of microglia, which could lead to neurodegeneration. Treatment with fucoidan has been shown to reduce encephalitis-induced reactions in encephalomyelitis.

Sixth, fucoidan protects our body from radiation. In studies in rats, fucoidan has been shown to protect against radiation exposure. It seems to be good news for cancer patients who are experiencing many side effects from radiation therapy.

Seventh, it can protect our body from chemotherapy. Experimental results in mice receiving chemotherapy. Fucoidan prevented visceral inflammation and relatively increased the length of intestinal villi. The villi in the intestine are small finger-shaped projections made up of cells that span the entire length of the small intestine. They absorb nutrients from the food that enters the intestine and send them to the bloodstream. Increasing the length of the villi improves nutrient absorption and improves immune balance. Therefore, it can help restore immunity that was lost due to cancer.

Eighth, it can protect the stomach. Gastrointestinal diseases are largely attributed to inflammation and viral infection. Fucoidan is said to play a role in preventing or resolving these causes. Fucoidan has been reported to prevent Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach by preventing bacteria from sticking to the gut wall. In addition, in mice administered aspirin to induce ulcers, administration of fucoidan prevented the development of ulcers.

Ninth, it helps protect the liver. Fucoidan may help protect the body from chemically induced liver inflammation. In a rat study, fucoidan reduced alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Tenth, it can help fight malaria. These are the results of experiments on cells, including mice. Fucoidan has been found to help against malaria infections.

Eleventh, it help prevent kidney stones. Kidney stones are diseases that can be caused by high levels of oxalate. Fucoidan normalized oxalate levels in rats with large amounts of oxalate in their urine. It also improved antioxidant status and reduced stone development.

Twelfth, it helps prevent obesity. Fucoidan increased the activity of lipolytic enzymes and prevented glucose uptake into fat cells. This may also help with fat loss soon. In rats fed a high-fat diet, it was confirmed that rats with fucoidan in their diet gained less weight than rats that did not.

Agaricus mushroom is a mushroom called 'God's mushroom' or 'Phantom mushroom' in Portuguese. Researchers at Pennsylvania State University in the United States studied the composition of Agaricus mushroom, focusing on the fact that the proportion of longevity among Brazilians is high and the incidence of adult diseases is low. It has also proven its anticancer effect. It is rich in various nutrients such as protein, fat, vitamins, amino acids, and essential fatty acids, and has excellent effects on various adult diseases including anticancer action.
