In this article, I will discuss a few more ingredients that have a synergistic effect with fucoidan in this blog.
As you know, fucoidan has various physiological activities based on researches. According to the NPO Research Institute of Fucoidan IN Japan, when mixed fucoidan with different ingredients such as Okinawa mozuku (Cladosiphon Okamuranus), Mekabu (Undaria pennatifida) and Agaricus, it will exhibit stronger power than fucoidan alone.
Here is the result of the NPO Research Institute of Fucoidan.
Agaricus mycelium extract powder with fucoidan increased high in NK (Natural Killer) cell activity than fucoidan itself.
Also, when they applied Okinawa mozuku derived fucoidan, Mekabu derived fucoidan, and Agaricus mycelium extract powder to each promyelocytic leukemia cell strain (HL60) and cultured human ovarian tumor cell strains (NOS4), Okinawa Mozuku derived fucoidan showed a high ability to induce apoptosis.
For deeper study and further verification, the angiogenesis-inhibiting function of Okinawa mozuku derived fucoidan and Mekabu-derived fucoidan by using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The Angiogenesis-inhibiting effect of mekabu-derived fucoidan was greater than that of Okinawa mozuku-derived fucoidan.
Based on the result from the NPO Research Institute of Fucoidan, the synergetic effect of Fucoidan Mix showed a much high level of physiological activates.
