First human study on advanced cancer patients shows fucoidan increases quality of life!
The study [1] involved giving fucoidan to advanced cancer patients. Quality of life scores were established at the beginning of treatment.
The inflammatory processes in the body caused by cancer were also measured when the study started. There was a significant reduction in all of the inflammatory markers after two weeks of fucoidan use!
The quality of life scores for the subjects improved, with symptoms such as fatigue remaining stable.
The study concluded with researchers commenting, “This is the first study providing evidence of the anti-inflammatory effects of fucoidans for advanced cancer patients. In future studies, larger blinded, controlled trials are required to establish the efficacy of fucoidan as supportive care for cancer patients, especially those undergoing chemotherapy.”
More studies on humans are being done, and we will try to keep you updated on all of the results as they come in!
