Description
Fucoidan is a form of water soluble dietary fibre that is extracted from the “slimy” portion of seaweeds. The bulk of which is sulfated polysaccharide that is found mainly in various species of brown seaweed such as kombu, limu moui, bladderwrack, wakame, mozuku, and hijiki.
Extensive clinical research has been done on fucoidan, focusing primarily on two distinct forms: F-fucoidan, which is >95{0aee3dc91dbf7716d3aa8ab3898ede6a9519e78f01ce6b7093eb19ce5d3b0368} composed of sulfated esters of fucose, and U-fucoidan, which is approximately 20{0aee3dc91dbf7716d3aa8ab3898ede6a9519e78f01ce6b7093eb19ce5d3b0368} glucuronic acid.
As a consequence of these studies , U-fucoidan and F-fucoidan are now being marketed as a nutriceutical and food supplement.
The manufacturer guarantees that each bottle contains at least 10 grams of Fucoidan essence (more than 2g per 100cc). This product is manufactured under the supervision of The Okinawa Prefectural Government.

Following the nuclear disaster of Fukushima, the AVA has directed all the food imports to be subjected to “hold-and-test” to ensure that the foods are safe.
The AVA wants to assure the public that foods imported from Japan that is available in the market is safe for consumption. There is no cause for concern for consumers as the affected consignments have not been released for sale under their “hold-and-test” surveillance programme.
