As
an antioxidant, fucoidan has piqued the interest of many scientists and researchers
as one of the ocean's greatest treasures.
Agel's newest product, UMI, offers the vast benefits of the ocean in
an easily consumable gel form. The active ingredient in UMI is fucoidan. As a
component of brown algae, fucoidan has long been considered a natural source
of healthy food and used for many purposes by island and coastal cultures that
have had access to it. Now, further research is suggesting that fucoidan may
prove to be just what the doctor ordered.
Although
brown algae has long been known to possess great nutritional value, it
has only been a short time since the scientific and medical communities
have extracted and studied one of the most powerful and potentially beneficial
nutrients in it. As an antioxidant, fucoidan has piqued the interest of
many scientists and researchers as one of the ocean's greatest treasures.
One of the most versatile of the resources gleaned from the ocean's
water is algae, better known as seaweed or kelp. It is well known that seawater
contains 77 minerals, trace minerals, and other elements. Those same 77 elements
are also found in algae. Algae are sea plants characterized by their color:
green, red, and brown. Of the three classifications of algae, brown algae are
the most used for human consumption.
