FucoPure®
First Patent
FucoPure® Fucoxanthin Extract received its first patent on its proprietary manufacturing process on February 22, 2011. This U.S. Patented process (patent # 7892580), generates a highly concentrated form of Fucoxanthin while reducing the amount of heavy metals and iodine without damaging or losing the dietary fibers, minerals, amino acids, vitamins, and most importantly the Fucoxanthin content. While Fucoxanthin naturally occurs in Wakame Seaweed with levels of 0.01% our extract has up to a 10.8% Fucoxanthin content. Most material found on the market is only a 5% - 10% fucoxanthin via UV, while FucoPure® is a 10% HPLC, which tests out to over 20% via UV.
