• Kelp contains fucoidan – which naturally occurs in the cell walls of seaweed – that is known to promote growth factors specifically connected with the hair cycle¹²
• In a clinical study, researchers found that a supplement containing seaweed extracts helped to prevent hair loss and promoted scalp health.³
• Marine polyphenols have been shown to have promoting effects on hair growth when applied topically.⁴
• Fucoidan and marine polyphenols are compounds that have a diverse range of benefits in regard to general health, antioxidants, UV protection, and anti-inflammation, which is known to promote healthy hair and nails.

Research shows that both fucoidan and marine polyphenols offer benefits in hair growth and maintenance:

• Fucoidan is known to promote growth factors specifically connected with the hair cycle. Research has found that the structural and anionic characteristics of fucoidan are similar to heparin, which stimulates the production of hepatocyte growth factors – commonly known as ‘scatter factors’. These growth factors play a key role in tissue regeneration. ^1,2
• In a clinical study, researchers found that a supplement containing seaweed extracts helped to prevent hair loss and promoted scalp health. ⁴
• Marine polyphenols have been shown to have promoting effects on hair growth when applied topically. ⁵
• In addition to the specific benefits of fucoidan and marine polyphenols on hair growth and maintenance, these compounds also have a diverse range of benefits in general health, antioxidants, UV protection, and anti-inflammation, which is known to promote healthy hair and nails.
