U-Fucoidan is
is a super concentrated extract of Laminaria japonica, brown seaweed named kombu. This plant is
the most bio-available source of fucoidan. Through a
patented extraction process, the natural fucoidan content of U-Fucoidan is
increased to 35% by volume. U-Fucoidan's increased fucoidan content and
bioavailability allows for a much higher positive result expectancy among
its users. Thus, U-Fucoidan is the leading fucoidan-rich, brown seaweed
supplement on the market today!
In 1996
two Japanese research facilities, Biomedical Research Laboratories of Takara
Shuzo and Research Institute for Glycotechnology Advancement discovered that
fucoidan, existent in the brown seaweed Laminaria japonica, causes various
types of established malignant cell lines to self-destruct.
The mechanism by which the self-destruction occurs, known as apoptosis, is due to activation by the digestive enzymes
contained in the cells themselves.
This process exists in cells from their initial formation. This
mechanism, once activated, acts as a clean-up process for the body's harmful
cells. Thus when a body suffering from abnormal and uncontrolled cell
division detects the presence U-fucoidan, it naturally begins the process of
apoptosis and rids itself of the damaging cells.
Interestingly, Okinawa, Japan has the lowest cancer mortality rate in Japan
where kombu is predominantly consumed. Brown seaweed has been found
continuously to be the most beneficial among other seaweeds and plants.
Why
U-Fucoidan?
Many
different extracts of fucoidan are available on the market
today, however none are able to offer U-Fucoidan in its purest form, as it
is naturally found in the brown seaweed Laminaria japonica. Extracts
offering fucoidan in high concentrations are created by
stripping the fucoidan away from its natural environment, leaving just the
isolated element which is not easily absorbed by the body. The process by
which U-Fucoidan is made involves no such thing. From the very harvesting of
the brown seaweed to the bottling process, the greatest effort is made to
maintain the integrity and purity of the U-fucoidan. The natural brown
seaweed extract U-Fucoidan is not cooked, boiled, chemically processed or
altered. It is not made into a liquid. It has no preservatives,
conservatives, sugar or coloring added. The idea behind
U-Fucoidan is
simple: just drink it with water and obtain the same great health benefits
as found at the very depths of the ocean!
U-Fucoidan has been developed to maximize the quantity of
essential polysaccharides found in kombu, and at the same time to leave a
natural balance of vitamins and minerals. It is a wholesome food supplement and delivers beneficial factors of brown
seaweed in the enhanced bio-available form. It
is a strong antioxidant and can have immunomodulating activity.
Benefits
Clinical studies have shown that fucoidan can
-
Decrease cholesterol levels- resulting from the way
that enzymes breakdown fatty acids in the liver
-
Diabetes control by slowing down the release of
glucose into the blood
-
Lower blood pressure
-
Improve liver function
-
Improve immunity from increasing the production of
immune cells or natural killer cells (NK cells)
-
Reduce stomach disorders
-
Skin rejuvenation by increasing the production of
integrin, a protein that helps in skin repair and firmness
-
Increase cell regeneration
-
Relieve allergies because of the increase of NK cells
-
Relieve arthritis by promoting the production of
fibronetin which plays an important part in keeping joints flexible and
lubricated
-
Herpes remedy because of fucoidan's antiviral
properties
-
Stop formation of cancer cells through a process
called apoptosis (cell self-destructing)
