Red marine algae has for many years been part of the staple diet of many cultures – particularly Japanese and Chinese. These cultures appreciate its healthful properties and in particular its effect on immunity. Red Marine Algae is believed to support:
- Immune System (antiviral, helps prevent herpes outbreaks)
- Digestive System (improves digestion, enhances metabolism)
- Weight loss (by curbing appetite)
- Cholesterol reduction
Although the beneficial properties of red marine algae are believed to be due to its sulphated polysaccharides, it is also known to contain sterols and sterolins. These complexes help stimulate human immune response, despite only a small percentage being absorbed in the gastro-intestinal tract. This could further amplify the immune-boosting properties of Gigartina red marine algae.
Vibrant Health's Red Marina Algae is simply the encapsulated powder of the leaves of 5 strains of algae from the family Gigartinaceae. Vibrant Health are specialist formulators of quality green supplements and other cutting-edge nutritional supplements.
