Active Fiber^®

Active Fiber^® is a sodium-cleansing dietary fiber derived from sea vegetables, the traditional food ingredients in Japanese diet. It binds sodium in the intestines, rendering them in-absorbable and carries them out of the body.
The refined technologies of Shimizu bring this unique dietary fiber in the form of power/tablets for nutraceutical applications.
Active Fiber^® is an ion-exchanging polysaccharide, which is not affected by human digestive enzymes. When ingested by humans, it has the ability to selectively absorb sodium ion in the intestinal tract. This leads to a subsequent lowering of sodium in the blood stream.

Applications can be used as nutritional supplement in the form of tablets, capsules and granules targeted for

• Lowering sodium levels in the body
• Maintaining the formal body pressure
• Alleviation of swelling
• Dietary fiber supplement
