The pigment gives brown seaweed its characteristic color and participates in photosynthesis (conversion of light to energy). Marine vegetables long considered among the most nutritious vegetation on earth, and have been included in many Asian diets for centuries. Fucoxanthin is a key ingredient that may have helped to minimize health and weight issues among Asian populations where it is consumed the most. The first marine algae-derived ingredient with clinically proven thermogenic effect. FücoTHIN™ contains an all-natural food concentrate of fucoxanthin from specially cultivated strains of brown marine vegetables grown in pristine waters off both the Canary Islands and Europe.
