Algae are among the oldest organisms on earth. As they are extremely rich in essential nutrients, they have found an important place among food supplements in recent years. They help to feel better, detoxify the body, improve immunity, stimulate digestion and are a great help in cases of unbalanced nutrition and anemia.
ZeeQuest has developed the product line ZQ Nutrition, which is based on the phytocomplex Aloxyl-7.4 ™, which is produced from pure Norwegian seaweed (Ascophyllum Nodosum) of the highest quality. In this article we present 5 key ingredients of Norwegian seaweed that maintain and strengthen our health.
Norwegian brown algae (Ascophyllum nodosum or Norwegian seaweed) are rich in organic iodine, fucoidans, alginates, fucoxanthins and laminarins. They also contain all 72 different traces of minerals that people in the West often lack. In general, edible seaweed is an excellent source of fiber, calcium, potassium, iron and iodine. Depending on the variety, they can also be a valuable source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, B, C, E, K, copper, zinc, manganese, magnesium and selenium. Norwegian seaweed also contains pantothenic acid and riboflavin, which are needed to produce sufficient energy in stressful and stressful situations.Norwegian brown algae (Ascophyllum nodosum or Norwegian seaweed) are rich in organic iodine, fucoidans, alginates, fucoxanthins and laminarins.

Fucoidan is a sulfur polysaccharide also known as vaporized oligomineral. It influences the self-destruction of cancer cells in many fast-growing forms of cancer. It helps to eliminate harmful cells from the body in a natural way. Research shows that the therapeutic properties of fucoidan include improving the immune system, alleviating digestive/intestinal disorders, controlling allergies, improving liver function, strong antioxidant activity, regulating cholesterol and blood pressure, stabilizing blood sugar and promoting healthy skin and hair.
Fucoxanthin is a xanthophyll which is present as an additional pigment in the chloroplasts of brown algae and other heterokonts and gives these species their characteristic brown color. In cancer research, fucoxanthin has shown a unique property to cause G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in different cell lines and tumor growth. It is also used as a weight loss agent. Other functions of fucoxanthin include improving blood lipid profiles and reducing insulin resistance due to obesity.
Alginate - Alginic acid, also called algin or alginate, is an anionic polysaccharide found in the cell wall of brown algae. Alginates bind our radioactive substances, heavy metals like lead and mercury, toxins and free radicals in a natural and effective way. Their superior property is that all toxins that would otherwise be incorporated into the heart, kidneys, liver, brain and other organs are absorbed into themselves and converted into their own molecules. Alginates cannot be broken down or absorbed by the body, so they are eliminated from the body together with toxic substances.
Iodine in its natural bioactive form is essential for the thyroid gland, which regulates the entire metabolism, produces thyroid hormones and stimulates the function of the nervous system. Sufficient iodine reactivates the thyroid gland and consequently regulates other glands and organs, including the pancreas, gall bladder, kidneys, adrenal glands and even the liver. Natural iodine is extremely important for an overactive or underactive thyroid gland, but also for other organs of the body, including breast and prostate tissue.
Laminarin is one of the polysaccharides that have been proven to have positive effects on the human body. Laminarin contains the most active form of ß -glucan (ß -1.3 / 1.6) found in brown algae. It successfully strengthens the immune system, lowers cholesterol levels, helps neutralize allergens in the body, prevents infections, regulates metabolism and restores the pH level in the digestive tract.
