The Affect Of Brown Seaweed On Heart Health

Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer for both men and women in America today. Heart problems take many forms: Coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, and stroke to name just a few. This article will discuss the ways brown seaweed called Limu Moui by the Tongans can protect you from this insidious killer.

But First, a Reality Check

Too many supplements out there promise you the moon. This is irresponsible. Limu Moui is not a cure for heart disease. There are many lifestyle choices you make every day that affects your risk for developing certain problems. You can prevent such killers as strokes and coronary artery disease. Exercise and follow your doctor’s guidelines for a healthy diet.

Now that we’re clear on that, you should know that Limu Moui can do a lot to promote your heart health—and even help prevent strokes. We will discuss two of these in detail.

Limu Can Prevent Plaque Formation

Fucoidan—a key element in Limu Moui—may be one way to inhibit smooth muscle cell activation. Smooth muscles can be found in hollow organs, such as blood vessels. Why is this important you ask?

The smooth muscles are responsible for moving substances like plaque into your blood vessels. You may have heard of people who had their arteries cleared through a process called angioplasty. You may also have heard that some of them then had their arteries clog up again. It is these smooth muscles that move the plaque back into an artery.

French scientists have found that fucoidan can help prevent these muscles from activating. If the muscle can’t activate, it can’t move plaque back into the artery.

A Natural Inflammatory

Inflammation is thought to be a key factor in heart disease. No one knows for sure what causes inflammation. There are a few studies, however, that point to an infection from a virus or a bacteria as a possible cause of atherosclerosis (the narrowing of the blood vessels).

In January 2006 Japanese researchers found that fucoidan inhibited a process called leukocyte rolling, which can contribute to inflammation. Fucoidan, in other words, may prevent the precursors to heart disease from even developing.

These are only two of the many cardiovascular-related conditions that fucoidan can help prevent. There is very exciting news about the anti-clotting properties of fucoidan, which may help prevent strokes. The current synthetics that are used for the same purpose come with many unpleasant side affects. As do may man-made medicines. But until we find an alternative, it is the lesser of two evils.

We don’t know what science will reveal to us next about the healing properties of this super food. Research into the causes and cures for heart problems are constantly evolving at an enormous rate. Certainly what we know now should motivate you to learn more about this humble yet mighty seaweed. Consider giving Limu Moui—and the very digestible version of fucoidan that comes from it—a try. Your heart will thank you for it.

Original Limu Moui is not a medicine of a drug. While it can promote wellness, it is not a cure. Do not use this or any article as a substitute for medical advice. Consult your doctor.
