Why does one serving of fücoTHIN® contain so much more fucoxanthin than the competitors?
The answer is in the proprietary process that is used to concentrate the fucoxanthin (the actual fucoxanthin ingredient Garden of Life uses is trademarked Xanthigen™) used in fucoTHIN. The fucoxanthin in fucoTHIN comes from two specific strains of brown seaweed. These strains of brown seaweed are placed in tanks with pristine deep sea water circulating in them. They are then placed under photo bio-reactors. These special bio-reactors concentrate the fucoxanthin present in the seaweed. When the fucoxanthin is extracted from the seaweed it is at 250 – 500 times the concentration of normal fucoxanthin. FucoTHIN is the only fucoxanthin product available in health food stores or online that contains concentrated fucoxanthin.
