This nutraceutical does not have any side effects as established by detailed preclinical trials," said Kajal Chakraborty, Senior Scientist at the CMFRI who developed the product.ICAR-CMFRI Director A. Gopalakrishnan said that entrepreneurs and start-ups are welcome to upscale and market this product by an expression of interest with the CMFRI."The institute is in the process of developing more health products from the underutilized seaweeds. Efforts are on for standardizing and promoting seaweed farming all along the Indian coasts as a livelihood option for the coastal communities. This is expected to compensate for the dip in income for the fishermen during lean seasons," he said.The institute has already developed and commercialised natural products for diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, cholesterol and hypothyroidism.( With inputs from IANS )
