維基百科中文版，最後一句總結：
科學研究表明褐藻糖膠具有多種不同的生物活性功能。最廣泛被研究的領域包括其抗癌[3]和抗炎[4]反應的功能。它還被研究用於生物材料、藥物輸送、和控製和治療心血管疾病的應用。[5]
維基百科英文版有這樣的論述：
Laboratory research expanded once fucoidan became commercially available in the 1970s, with studies limited to in vitro and rodent studies.[2] Fucoidan is limited for use as a "complementary" ingredient in supplements, foods, beverages, cosmetics and animal feed because its biological properties and safety have not been adequately demonstrated.[3]
There is little evidence for the safe use of fucoidan products, as no national regulatory authorities have designated it as safe for human use and no rigorous clinical safety trials have been reported, as of 2019.[3] There is high variation in the quality of products containing fucoidan.[3]
譯成中文是：
20 世紀 70 年代，褐藻糖膠開始商業化，實驗室研究隨之擴展，但研究僅限於體外實驗和齧齒動物實驗。[ 2 ]由於褐藻糖膠的生物學特性和安全性尚未得到充分證實，因此其作為補充劑、食品、飲料、化妝品和動物飼料中的“補充”成分的用途受到限製。[ 3 ]
截至 2019 年，幾乎沒有證據表明褐藻糖膠產品可以安全使用，因為尚無國家監管機構認定其對人體安全，也未報告任何嚴格的臨床安全試驗。[ 3 ]含有褐藻糖膠的產品質量參差不齊。[ 3 ]
