From the beginning of raw mosk



Registered dietitian talks about the potential of raw mozuku
In order not to rely on medicine.
Raw mozuku is recommended for diet.
Many people have heard of the name fucoidan, an ingredient found in mozuku. Mozuku's unique sliminess is due to this fucoidan. Fucoidan is a type of dietary fiber. There are two types of dietary fiber: easily soluble in water = soluble in water and insoluble in water = insoluble, but fucoidan is water-soluble.
This soluble dietary fiber is characterized by its viscosity and water retention, and is said to slow down the rate of sugar absorption and suppress the rapid rise in blood sugar levels after meals. It also works to reduce cholesterol levels in the blood, making it effective for people with diabetes and hyperlipidemia.

Dietary fiber has various functions.
The combination of meals also changes the effect.
On the other hand, insoluble dietary fiber can be expected to relieve constipation because it encourages bowel movements. So what kind of food is each dietary fiber contained in? Insoluble is found in vegetables and beans, and water-soluble is found in mozuku, seaweed, okra, and nameko. Please think back here. Which dietary fiber do you consume more in your daily diet?
It is also necessary to devise combinations and ways to eat them. For example, vinegar and dairy products slow down the time it takes to send food from the stomach to the intestines.

You can cook and season it freely.
Control your body with the natural power of raw mozuku.
Fucoidan is abundant in raw mozuku, but research has been actively underway since around 1970. From that time, various usefulness for health was recognized.
However, as food becomes more Westernized, dietary fiber intake is decreasing in Japan. Especially if you are on a diet.
That's why I want you to eat raw mozuku, which is rich in soluble fiber. This raw mozuku is not seasoned, so even if you don't like sour foods like store-bought products, it's okay.
It is also convenient that it does not limit the cooking method, so it can be applied to everything from staple foods to desserts.
Everyday health starts at the table. Enjoy a healthy life with this raw mozuku grown in the beautiful waters of Miyakojima.

The biggest feature of Miyakojima raw mozuku ismineralanddietary fibreAre.

Minerals: Calcium, Magnesium
Mozuku is an ideal source of calcium
Calcium, a nutrient that Japan tends to lack today. It is the main cause of increased osteoporosis.
The calcium content of mozuku is 100 mg per 100 grams, just like milk, but it contains more magnesium than cow's milk.
Magnesium is a nutrient that has been shown to prevent abnormal uptake of calcium into cells and promote calcium deposition in bones.
Mozuku, which provides a well-balanced intake of calcium and magnesium, is an ideal source of calcium.

Dietary fiber: alginate, fucoidine
alginic acid
Alginic acid, which accounts for 80% of mozuku polysaccharides, is "slimy".
Alginic acid is said to bind to salt (sodium) in the body and release it out of the body together, reducing bad cholesterol and eliminating swelling.
Alginic acid is also said to have the effect of preventing various types of cancer.

Fucoidine
Fucoidan is a member of the sugar family called polysaccharides, and is a slimy component of seaweed found in seaweed, especially mozuku, kelp, seaweed, etc.
It is a substance with a wide range of bioactive effects and is a polysaccharide that has attracted attention in recent years.
The composition of fucoidan varies depending on each seaweed, but the basic composition is fucoidan, which is a combination of fucose, sulfated fucose, and other sugars.



How fucoidine works
Ideal for those with diabetes, hyperlipidemia, dieting, and other dietary restrictions!
In recent years, various studies have reported the following functions of fucoidine.
