Undaria 5% fucoxanthin

ABOUT

Undaria is an edible brown seaweed rich in proteins, minerals and vitamins with an ancient history of alimentary use in Asia. This Undaria extract from Undaria pinnatifida, commonly known as Wakame, is standardized to over 5% fucoxanthin.

Publications indicate thermogenic activity, neuroprotective properties and protective effects on heart, liver and skin. Recently, neuroprotective activities have been reported on Wakame, including antioxidant, anti-neuroinflammatory, cholinesterase inhibitory activity and inhibition of neuronal death.
