Fucoxanthin Extract Functions
Our high-purity Fucoxanthin Extract offers a wide range of potential health benefits, backed by extensive scientific research:
Antioxidant: It scavenges free radicals, helps reduce oxidative stress, and thus slows aging.
Promotes retinal development: It acts as a precursor to rhodopsin, participating in its biosynthesis in the body, thereby affecting visual function.
Regulates blood lipids: It can improve blood lipid profiles by lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, helping to prevent arteriosclerosis.
Inhibits tumor cell proliferation: It can block key enzymes involved in the cell cycle, interfering with tumor cell growth and division, thereby inhibiting tumor cell proliferation.
Boosts immunity: It can stimulate the body's immune response to a certain extent, improving resistance to pathogens.
Regulates blood sugar: It can improve insulin function, thereby lowering blood sugar levels, playing a certain role in lowering blood sugar.
Prevents constipation and detoxifies: It accelerates excretion and bowel movements, effectively preventing constipation while also detoxifying and improving the skin.
Anti-inflammatory and nerve cell repair: It has anti-inflammatory effects and helps repair nerve cells.
Application Areas
In the pharmaceutical field, fucoxanthin powder has anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties and can also be used to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Fucoxanthin powder can inhibit the growth and proliferation of various cancer cells, such as skin cancer, duodenal cancer, colon cancer, leukemia, and liver cancer. Furthermore, fucoxanthin powder can improve endothelial cell function, reduce vascular inflammation, and prevent the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, thereby effectively preventing cardiovascular disease.
In the health supplement field, it is primarily used for weight loss, blood sugar regulation, and nerve cell protection. Fucoxanthin powder activates the UCP1 protein, promoting fat breakdown, while stimulating the liver to produce DHA, which lowers cholesterol levels, thereby helping to reduce weight and body fat. Furthermore, fucoxanthin powder can mitigate liver damage caused by excessive fat accumulation by regulating mitochondrial uncoupling protein, PPARγ, and C/EBPa, improve insulin sensitivity, and help regulate blood sugar levels. Fucoxanthin powder also has neuroprotective effects, increasing ARA (arachidonic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) levels in mice, helping to maintain a healthy nervous system.
Cosmetics: Fucoxanthin Extract primarily exerts its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects to slow the aging process, reduce skin inflammation and allergic reactions, and improve skin health.
Food Industry: In the food industry, fucoxanthin, as a natural pigment, can be used to color foods, enhancing their color and appeal. Fucoxanthin powder also helps improve food quality and shelf life.
