Fucoxanthin is a carotenoid, a natural compound found in seaweed that is responsible for its brown coloring. Commonly found in Asian cuisine, such as miso soup, fucoxanthin has thermogenic properties that increase the body's metabolic rate, effectively burning off body fat, including stubborn belly fat. It also enhances the body's ability to process energy and contributes to healthy cholesterol levels. In addition, fucoxanthin supports healthy liver function, an important factor in keeping weight under control. PinnoThin™ contains active ingredients derived from pine nut oil. Pinolenic acid is a fatty acid found exclusively in pine nut oil that can help curb appetite by stimulating the release of cholecystokinin, a hormone that functions as an appetite suppressant. In addition to suppressing appetite, pine nut oil helps to promote healthy cholesterol levels. Pine nut oil also contains antioxidants that work to reduce oxidative stress within the body. NSI® Fucoxanthin with PinnoThin™ is better because it: Researchers have long investigated why some Asian communities have such extended life and good health. Studies have found a few possible reasons for this, such as increased Omega 3 through higher intake of fish oil, and also, the cultural tendency to have much less sugar than we consume in the typical Western (and in particular, North American) diet. But researchers weren’t convinced they had all the pieces of the puzzle. But now, they just might. Fucoxanthin has been shown to cause mice to lose 5% to 10% of their fat, through shrinking their fat cells, particularly in the abdomen. It also has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells, and has antioxidant properties as well. There are other health benefits too to this brown sea weed extract. Fucoxanthin is poised to become the new “It” health supplement. Chemists in Japan have found that brown seaweed, a flavor component used in many Asian soups and salads, contains a compound that appears in animal studies to promote weight loss by reducing the accumulation of fat. Called fucoxanthin, the compound achieved a 5 percent to 10 percent weight reduction in test animals and could be developed into a natural extract or drug to help fight obesity, the researchers say. The compound targets abdominal fat, in particular, and may help reduce oversized guts, the scientists say. Their study was presented today at the 232nd national meeting of the American Chemical Society. Fucoxanthin is a brownish pigment that gives brown seaweed its characteristic color and also conducts photosynthesis (the conversion of light to energy). It is found at high levels in several different types of brown seaweed, including a type of kelp that is used in traditional Japanese miso soup. But fucoxanthin is not found in abundance in green and red seaweed, which also are used in many Asian foods, the researchers say. The brown seaweed used in the current study was Undaria pinnatifida, a type of kelp also known as wakame, which is widely consumed in Japan. As kelp forests are found in abundance along the California coast, the new research findings could represent a potentially lucrative market if kelp -- of which there are many varieties -- can be developed into effective anti-obesity drugs, according to the scientists.
