摘要
Seaweed is a rich source of iron and iodine Seaweed fiber-rich foods help in the management of diabetes. Bioactive compounds in seaweed reduce diabetes risk factors, such as inflammation, and insulin sensitivity. Bacteria in the intestines play an important role in breaking down food and supporting digestion and overall health. Seaweed fiber can help feed the gut’s bacteria. Intestinal bacteria break fiber into compounds that improve gut health and the health of the immune system, providing the body with plenty of gut-healthy prebiotic fiber, which in turn can help with issues such as constipation or diarrhea. The fiber in seaweed may benefit people to lose weight. It also facilitates delayed stomach emptying. As a result, the stomach may not send signals of hunger to the brain for a longer time, which may help prevent overeating. High-fiber foods such as algae may reduce levels of cholesterol in the blood. These soluble fibers bind to bile acids or salts in the body. The body then uses cholesterol to replace these elements, which may result in a decrease of total cholesterol by up to 18%.

海藻是铁和碘海藻富含富含糖尿病的水的丰富来源。海藻中的生物活性化合物降低了糖尿病的危险因素,例如炎症和胰岛素敏感性。肠道中的细菌在分解食物和支持消化和整体健康方面起着重要作用。海藻纤维可以帮助喂养肠道的细菌。肠道细菌将纤维损坏成改善肠道健康和免疫系统健康的化合物,从而为人体提供大量肠健康的益生元纤维,这反过来又可以帮助解决便秘或腹泻等问题。海藻中的纤维可能使人们减肥。它还有助于延迟胃排空。结果,胃可能不会在更长的时间内向大脑发送饥饿信号,这可能有助于防止暴饮暴食。高纤维食物(例如藻类)可能会降低血液中胆固醇的水平。这些可溶性纤维与体内的胆汁酸或盐结合。然后,人体使用胆固醇代替这些元素,这可能导致总胆固醇降低多达18%。
