Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Seaweeds are known as a delicacy and are a well-known source of vital
dietary components. Seaweeds make up some of the most important sources of novel
medicinal substances for human use. Additionally, as food, they have been proven to
possess diverse health benefits. The distinctive characteristics of the marine
environment where seaweed grows are thought to be primarily responsible for most of
its traits. Compared to terrestrial plants, marine seaweeds contain higher amounts of
health-promoting molecules and materials. Clinical trials and mechanistic research on
isolated and extracted compounds from seaweeds have shown potential benefits to
gastrointestinal health. The present review emphasizes the major seaweed compounds
having nutritive value with special reference to the potential to improve gastrointestinal
disorders and gut health.
