Seaweed for human health and nutraceuticals | Applications

Seaweeds offer a host of health benefits due to their rich nutritional profile. They are low in calories and fat while being packed with essential vitamins (A, C, E, K), minerals (iodine, calcium, iron), and antioxidants. The high iodine content in seaweeds supports thyroid function and metabolism. Additionally, their omega-3 fatty acids promote heart health, reduce inflammation, and support brain function. Seaweeds are also a good source of dietary fibre, aiding digestion and promoting satiety. Their antioxidants help protect against oxidative stress and may have anti-cancer properties. Including seaweeds in a balanced diet can contribute to overall health and wellbeing.
