Fucoidan

Fucoidan Description

Fucoidan is found in marine algae (brown algae) such as mozuku, mekaby, and kombu. The slimy constituent of seaweed is a rich source of fucoidan, which is a general term referring to a group of polysaccharides containing sulfated fucose. The health benefits of fucoidan are a number of important cancer fighting actions: - Immune activation - Antitumor Action - Antioxidative Action - Angiogenesis (suppression of new blood vessels from being created, thus cutting off the supply of nutrients to cancer cells.) - Apoptosis induction in cancer cells

Fucoidan is used as an ingredient in some dietary supplement products such as Umi No Shizuku Fucoidan.

Fucoidan Side Effects

Investigating the toxicity of fucoidan. In this study, the acute and subchronic (6 months) toxicity of varying levels of fucoidan extracted from Laminaria japonica was investigated in Wistar rats after oral administration. The results showed that no significant toxicological changes were observed when 300 mg/kg body weight per day fucoidan was administered to rats. But when the dose was increased to 900 and 2500 mg/kg body weight per day, the clotting time was significantly prolonged. Besides this, no other signs of toxicity were observed. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the no side effect level of fucoidan from L. japonica is 300 mg/kg body weight per day.
