Heart Health

Cardiac health is pivotal to overall individual well-being. Oligo Fucoidan (Brown Seaweed Fucoidan) and FucoBalan® Fucoxanthin Fucoidan have been identified with antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, lipid-lowering, and cardiovascular protective properties. These components hold promise in positively influencing cardiac health and demonstrate potential benefits in the research of aging canine cardiac function. Additionally, case reports indicate the effects of Oligo Fucoidan and Fucoxanthin Fucoidan on degenerative heart valve disease, heart valve interstitial cell calcification, and cardiac function in canine.

Potential Benefits of Oligo Fucoidan and FucoBalan® Fucoxanthin Fucoidan in Heart Health:

  • Improve cardiac function of aging canine
  • Protect heart valve cells from high oxidative stress-induced damage
