What is "fucoid algae"?
Fucoid algae, commonly found in coastal areas, are characterized by their olive-green to brown coloration. They possess unique features such as air-filled bladders and branched structures. Fucoid algae are not typically consumed directly as food due to their strong, briny taste and tough texture. However, they are often used as ingredients in various products, including skincare items, fertilizers, and animal feed. To obtain fucoid algae, they are usually harvested from the seashore or cultivated in controlled environments. The harvested algae can be processed through drying, grinding, or extraction methods to extract beneficial compounds for different applications.
