Obesity

Cardiovascular Protection

Obviously, Ecklonia Cava Extract’s many health benefits provide additional cardiovascular protection for obese and morbidly patients, who are more prone to cardiovascular and coronary heart disease. As discussed, ECE lowers LDL cholesterol, suppresses triglyceride fabrication, promotes healthy blood flow, lowers blood pressure, and scavenges free radicals, to name a few.

DGAT Inhibition & Obesity

DGAT inhibition has recently been recognized as a novel and safe target for the treatment of obesity. DGAT (diacylglycerol acyltransferase) is a key enzyme involved in intestinal fat absorption, triglyceride levels, fat storage, and energy metabolism in muscles. In a mouse study in which DGAT was inhibited, mice demonstrated obesity resistance with a high-fat diet. ECE compounds are found to inhibit DGAT.
