Immune function of seaweed polysaccharide

Seaweed polysaccharides mainly come from kelp, deer's tail (hijiki), spirulina, green algae, and other algae. Seaweed polysaccharides mainly include alga gum, alga gum and alga starch. Brown alga gum, brown alga gum and brown alga starch from kelp were white with yellow powder. The purified alginate sodium was white filaments. Alginate is a milky white powder. Both are soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, acetone, chloroform and other organic solvents.
Seaweed polysaccharide is a kind of natural active material, it has the function of regulating immune function of the body, such as can promote lymphocyte proliferation and differentiation, stimulate the phagocytic function of macrophages, promote the production of cytokines and antibodies and other ways to achieve the regulation of immune system function of the body.

1.Protect your heart
Algae is rich in selenium, as well as polysaccharides and fatty acids that protect against cardiovascular disease. German scientists found that selenium deficiency is one of the causes of cardiovascular disease. They found that people with coronary atherosclerosis had much lower levels of selenium than healthy people, and that people living in low-selenium areas were three times more likely to die of heart disease than those living in selenium-rich areas.
2. Anti-tumor effect
Middle-aged and elderly people who regularly eat seaweed are less likely to develop cancer. Japanese scientists have confirmed that kelp brown algae off the coast of Japan can inhibit tumors. Japanese women have a lower incidence of breast cancer due to their seaweed eating habits. Some people use 10 kinds of edible seaweed in Japanese sea to do anti-tumor experiment, the result shows that 6 kinds of edible seaweed have anti-leukemia effect, and the main component of anti-tumor is brown algae gum. Algae also contains more water-soluble cellulose, cellulose prevention and treatment of constipation effect is obvious, thereby reducing the accumulation of harmful substances in the human body too much. Edible algae are alkaline food, often eat alkaline food, help to improve the modern acidic constitution, strengthen the immune function of people. These can greatly enhance the body's ability to fight cancer. Selenium, which is rich in seaweed, also blocks the metabolism of cancer cells and inhibits their division and growth.
3.Oxidation
Excessive reactive oxygen species have destructive effects on phagocytic cells themselves and other cells, tissues and biological macromolecules, and accelerated lipid peroxidation can cause the destruction and death of normal cells. Seaweed polysaccharides have the function of the ros not only, still can significantly reduce the content of lipid peroxide (LPO) and increase peroxidase (CAT) and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), lipid peroxide remove excess free radicals and antioxidants, DunDing spiral alga can significantly enhance the oxidation resistance and the ability to resist free radical damage and its mechanism may be through promoting the body of SOD and GSH Px gan (valley oboro skin peroxidase) and GSH biosynthesis and enhance the ability of scavenging free radicals.
4. Antiviral
Seaweed polysaccharides mostly contain sulfuric acid groups, and the antiviral effect is positively correlated with the content of 5042. The antiviral activity of natural glycosylated polysaccharide is related to its sulfate group content and molecular weight. Seaweed polysaccharide calcium complex (CaSP) can selectively inhibit the replication and transmission of virus in host cells, and the calcium ion complex and sulfate radical formed are necessary for the antiviral effect in host cells, and CaSP can inhibit the replication of a few enveloped viruses.
