Sea moss - Sargassum oligocystum anti-diabetic effect

Numerous natural-based substances have anti-diabetic properties. The marine brown algae species have been identified as a rich source of extractable bioactive chemicals such as pigments, fucoidans, and polyphenols, all of which have anti-diabetic properties. A sea moss, Sargassum oligocystum is a brown macroalga found in tropical seas and oceans' shallow waters and coral reefs. Sargassum species have antioxidant, hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. In light of the previously established therapeutic values for S. oligocystum, Its anti-diabetic activity was postulated in an animal model due to the common metabolic pathways of diabetes with several disorders described. A study conducted by researchers in 2018 in animal models showed that compounds present in one species of seaweed were found to directly reduce signs of type 2 diabetes, such as elevated blood sugar.
