How to Take Fucothin

Fucothin is a natural weight loss supplement advertised as a thermogenic--that is, it increases the body's metabolic rate, prompting it to burn fat more quickly. The primary ingredient is fucoxanthin, an antioxidant derived from edible brown seaweed that has been shown to have thermogenic effects in rodents. While Fucothin is marketed as having a clinically proven thermogenic effect, scientific proof of these claims is scanty at best. Because Fucothin is a natural supplement, advertising claims about it are minimally regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Step 1

Take one Fucothin softgel at breakfast with at least eight oz. water.

Step 2

Take another Fucothin softgel at lunch, again with at least eight oz. water.

Step 3

Take a third Fucothin softgel at dinner. Drink at least eight oz. water. Repeat the next day.

Step 4

Increase your Fucothin dosage gradually. You can take up to three softgels in each dose instead of one, for a total of nine softgels daily. Try adding an extra pill to each dose one week and another extra pill to each dose the following week. Always take each dose with food and at least eight oz. water.

Tips and Warnings

  • If you do not eat three meals a day or cannot take Fucothin at the same time as one of your meals, make sure to take that dose with some sort of food; at the very least, have a snack with it.
  • You should always inform your medical care team about any natural supplements you are taking because they may interact with prescription medications.
