Production process of new generation energy gels based on brown seaweed Fucus

Abstract

The article presents the innovative development of a fucus-based energy gel. The gel is easy to use during high physical activity and it does not cause a thirsty feeling after consumption. The polysaccharide fucoidan of fucus has antiseptic, immunomodulatory, blood thinning and many other properties. The innovative technology opens fucus cells without high temperature exploration and additional chemical agents. Thus, the entire spectrum of biopolymers, vitamins, macro- and microelements vital for the restoration and normal functioning of the human body becomes available. The latest technology developed for processing seaweeds can be used to produce energy gels for athletes.
