OCEANIUM has been featured in Forbes, spotlighting seaweed’s incredible potential as a superfood and sustainable resource for both people and the planet.
At OCEANIUM, we see seaweed as more than just a trendy ingredient – it’s a game-changer for nutrition, gut health, and environmental resilience. The Forbes article highlights how seaweed is rapidly gaining recognition for its ability to deliver essential nutrients, support gut microbiome health, and reduce the pressures of industrial agriculture.
Our science-backed approach focuses on refining sustainably harvested seaweed into high-quality, functional ingredients, such as OCEAN ACTIVES H+, which has been clinically proven to improve the ratio of beneficial to harmful gut bacteria, specifically increasing Bifidobacterium while decreasing Enterobacteriaceae at a low dose of 250 mg, supporting overall digestive health and wellbeing.
OCEANIUM is also partner of the PRECODE research project conducted by Wageningen University & Research, division of Human Nutrition & Health, studying gut and brain health effects of prebiotics (OCEAN ACTIVES Beta-Glucan Plus) in older adults with suspected cognitive decline, including conditions such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.
“Seaweed is no longer a fringe ingredient, it is a frontier crop with the potential to nourish people and regenerate the planet…Seaweed brands are proving that with smart processing, strategic partnerships, and consumer education, seaweed can transcend its niche and become a mainstream force in food systems, bioeconomy, and environmental resilience.”
Thank you to Forbes for highlighting this exciting blue economy opportunity and to everyone helping us build a healthier, more sustainable world.
