cancerHigh incidence, the medical community is working hard to carry out anti-cancer research, and found that the extract extracted from algae “Fucoidan“can suppresscancer cellgrow, and reduce cancer recurrence. Traditional Chinese medicine is also used for adjuvant therapy, which can effectively alleviate the side effects of chemotherapy.
“Fucoidan” can inhibit cancer cells and slow down tumor growth
“Seaweed” is a general term for marine algae such as kelp, seaweed, agarose, and wakame. Studies have found that “fucoidan” extracted from seaweed has the effect of inhibiting cancer cells and slowing down tumor growth.
Surrounded by the sea, Taiwan is rich in natural brown algae resources. After three years of clinical trials, the Taiwanese medical team concluded that “fucoidan” is helpful for patients with liver cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer and rectal cancer. Among them, the mortality rate of breast cancer has been reduced from 18% to 22% to 6%, and the mortality rate of lung cancer has also been reduced by more than half. Some scholars have also found that brown algae combined with traditional Chinese and Western medicine is more effective. In recent years, “Fucoidan” has been regarded as a popular health product for anti-cancer in the biomedical field.
Xu Dafu, a natural medicine doctor, pointed out: “Fucoidan” has anti-cancer effects, can increase nutrition and strengthen immunity, so it can help patients, reduce many complications during treatment, and reduce mortality.
Chinese medicine doctor Lin Jianxiong said: The side effects of Western medicine chemotherapy, such as poor appetite, easy fatigue, poor sleep, etc., will be helped after eating brown algae.
The anti-cancer magic weapon of old Chinese medicine: seaweed
An old Chinese doctor from mainland China has struggled with cancer for more than 50 years. His magic weapon against cancer is the seaweed that is often used to mix cold dishes in daily life. He said: Seaweed is actually a traditional Chinese medicine. There is a prescription for treating cancer with it in ancient books. Its main function is to soften and resolve hard masses, and it can regulate a kind of evil poison that causes cancer. Modern medical research has also found that many components in seaweed have very good anti-cancer effects such as improving immunity and inhibiting tumors.
1. Anti-tumor
Seaweed polysaccharides in seaweed have the effect of enhancing immunity and anti-cancer. Seaweed also contains a special protein “glycoprotein”. Studies have found that some seaweed glycoprotein can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells. Middle-aged and elderly people who often eat seaweed rarely suffer from cancer. Japanese studies have also confirmed that the incidence of breast cancer in Japanese women is lower, which is related to their eating habits of eating seaweed.
2. Lower blood pressure
Some people use dried kelp root for the treatment of high blood pressure. In a study, it was found that 86 of the 158 people who received treatment were significantly effective. And the blood lipids of the patients also decreased, 58% of them decreased their cholesterol, and 50.3% decreased their triglycerides.
3. Protect the heart
Seaweed is rich in selenium, and selenium deficiency in the human body is one of the causes of cardiovascular disease. Selenium also has the effect of preventing cancer and improving immunity.
4. Anti-constipation
Seaweed is rich in water-soluble cellulose, which is very effective in preventing and treating constipation.
5. Prevent stroke and reduce blood clots
Seaweed can greatly reduce the incidence of stroke. Seaweed contains a certain amount of essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid and linolenic acid. Fucoidan sulfate extracted from fucoidan (starch) has the effect of lowering cholesterol and inhibiting arteriosclerosis.
6. Moisturize the skin
Seaweed is rich in methionine and cystine, which can prevent dry skin. Regular consumption can also make dry skin shiny, and oily skin can improve oil secretion.
