The Fucoidan Factor

Doctors from all over are a amazed at the characteristic powers of Fucoidan. Again, 700 studies have been written about what many people are now calling a super nutrient.

Fucoidan has been shown to:

-Enhance immunity
-Fight allergies
-Inhibit blood clotting
-Decrease cholesterol levels
-Lower high blood pressure
-Stabilize blood sugar
-Prevent ulcers by fighting Heliobactor pylori bacteria
-Relieve stomach disorders
-Improve and support liver function
-Promote hair growth
-Maintain skin moisture and tighten the skin
-Detoxify the body of heavy metals and dangerous chemicals
-Have antiviral, antibacterial and anticancer properties
-Contain powerful antioxidant compounds

But what does that mean? Simply put, fucoidan is a member of the carbohydrate family. Gucoidan is a polysaccharide. That means it is made up of several different polymers that can be broken down by hydrolysis. Fucoidan molecules also demonstrate a tendency to bond with sulphate groups. Research indicates that the higher the sulphate group-count in a plant, the higher its therapeutic potential.

Found in the cell walls of Limu Moui, fucoidan gives the sea plant its slippery texture. This moisture barrier protects the algae, even when it is exposed to strong sunlight. This barrier allows the brown sea plant to survive in it's harsh environment.

It just so happens that the body uses the different parts of fucoidan regularly. One of its components, galactose, for example is a sugar. Other of its components, such as xylose and glucuronic acid, are found in the make-up of cell walls. In fact, the components of fucoidan are so good for the body that Dr. Kyosuke Owa, a Japanese research scientist, compares it to mother's milk for its healing anti-bodies.

For the infant, a mother's breast milk provides an inexperienced immune system with the more experienced defense cells borrowed from the mother's immune system. This exposure to the experienced defense cells helps newborn babies to develop a strong immune system to fight off the diseases.

According to Dr. Owa, fucoidan contains the same types of antibodies found in human mother's milk. This makeup provides essential nutrients to boost the immune system. Dr. Owa's research explains that fucoidan stimulates the production of immune cells, providing the body with a stronger defense against invading bodies like bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and even cancer.
