Health Benefits of Seaweed Bioactives and Potential Food Applications explores the current development and broad application of seaweed in the food industry and beyond, including the bioactives available from seaweed, their associated health benefits, and potential applications. Broken into three parts, this book covers a range of topics, including seaweed as a source of bioactive proteins, peptides, and amino acids, anti-inflammatory properties of seaweed, and nutraceutical and functional food applications. Written for food and nutrition researchers, manufacturers, producers, and academics, this book will be a handy reference for those who want to use seaweed in high-value food products.
