Fucoidan
Fucoidans belong to a class of complex sugar molecules known as a polysaccharides. All fucoidans share the same backbone structure, but vary greatly in their molecular composition, and different types show different kinds of biological activities. Fucoidans are found primarily in brown seaweed, but both the level and composition of the fucoidan depends on the exact species of seaweed and the harvest conditions. Preclinical studies in animal models suggest some fucoidans may protect against inflammation and oxidative stress. Fucoidan consumption is generally regarded as safe.

Advantage of Fucoidan
Patented technology production
Only using water as solvent to extract fucoidan from brown algae.
No any chemical solvents residue
No any chemical solvents are used throughout the whole production process.
No radiation residual problem
High temperature steam sterilization method and not irradiation sterilization method.
Higher purity
98% min, water soluble fully, easier for taking, higher absorb efficiency.
