Fucoxanthin on Abdominal Circumference and Body Mass Index
Although it’s not fully understood how fucoxanthin works, it is believed
to stimulate the expression of the uncoupling protein-1 (UPC-1) gene in
the mitochondria of white fat cells that suppresses cell differentiation
and lipid accumulation, and promotes thermogenesis (fat burning) in
white adipose tissue. Fucoxanthin also appears to stimulate the
production of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and appears to decrease insulin
and blood glucose levels.
