Q1 How much Fucoidan should I take each day?

A: To maintain health on a daily basis, it is generally recommended to take at least one gram per day. If you have “lifestyle-related” health concerns such as diabetes or high blood pressure and want to improve the conditions related to that ailment, take at least two or three grams a day. If you have cancer or other serious diseases, it is recommended that your daily dose be a minimum of 2-8 grams.

Q2 What is the best way to maximize the fighting action of Fucoidan?

A: To maximize the fighting action of Fucoidan, it is recommended to take the product four times a day: in the morning, at noon, in the evening, and before sleep.The body’s natural immunity is greatest during the daytime when we are active but it decreases when the body is at rest (while we sleep). Contrastingly, malignant cells
are most active when the body is at rest. So, it’s very important to take Fucoidan before going to bed. Don’t worry about consuming too much Fucoidan as it is essentially the same as eating seaweed.

Q3 Are there any side effects when taking Fucoidan?

A: Fucoidan, unlike chemically synthesized drugs, consists of natural ingredients such as Mozuku and Mekabu. So you can take as much as you want without worry. Over 10 years have passed since the product was introduced to the market, but no major side effects have been reported. Of course, Fucoidan contains seaweed, which is a rich source of fiber, so taking it in excessive amounts may make your stool softer than usual. However, this is only a temporary condition, and after a while you will return to normal regularity.

Q4 Can I take other drugs while I take Fucoidan?

A: Remember, Fucoidan is not a drug. It is a natural ingredient found in Mozuku (Cladosiphon okamuranus) and Mekabu (the pleated section of Wakame – Undaria pinnatifida). There should be no harmful effect when taking prescribed drugstogether with Fucoidan, since it would be the same as taking those drugs after eating seaweed.
