Shipping: All products purchased at Zenmony.com are shipped from Japan. We offer two shipping options: EMS (Express Mail Service) and E-Packet. EMS offers reasonable rates and boasts the following features: it’s fast, the status of the parcel can be tracked online at any time, it’s handled with the highest priority, and loss and damages are compensated. For products weighing less than 2kg, we offer an alternative shipping option called E-Packet. E-Packet is in many cases just as fast as EMS but is less expensive. E-Packet is also trackable. Pricing can be compared for both options on the product page. Recently we added three new shipping options: "AIR", "SAL" and "SEA" (Surface). With "AIR" (International Air Mail) the fees are relatively high since posts will be sent by air. The "AIR" option becomes cheaper than EMS with heavier orders (more than 5kg). With "AIR" option, products are delivered approximately in 6-14 days. "SAL" (also called "Economy Air Mail") is a service where international mail is handled as airmail between the two countries and as surface mail within the destination country. This service is generally slower than "EMS" or "AIR" options, but the shipping rates are more affordable. With the "SAL" option, products are delivered approximately in 7-16 days. With "SEA" (Surface) mail products are sent by surface (by ship and rail). With this option the shipping rates are the most affordable. While the delivery period (stated on the Japan Post website http://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/service/dispatch/index_en.html) for this option is 1-3 months, it takes no longer than one month on average to deliver to developed countries. Similarly to "EMS" and "E-Packet", products shipped with "AIR", "SAL" and "SEA" are insured and have their tracking numbers. PLEASE NOTE that the delivery period may be considerably longer for countries with undeveloped transportation. (?click)

"Fucoxanthin 1000" is the akamoku seaweed (lat. Sargassum horneri) fucoxanthin product which was developed as a result of joint reasearch by professor Kazuo Miyashita (宮下和夫教授) of Fisheries Sciences Graduate School (北海道大学大学院水産科学研究院 - http://www2.fish.hokudai.ac.jp/) of Hokkaido University (Japan), Hokkaido Industrial Technology Center (北海道立工業技術センター http://www.techakodate.or.jp/center/) and Kaneka corporation. Professor Kazuo Miyashita conducted a profound research into how fucoxanthin which is abundant in akamoku seaweed growing in the coastal waters near Hakodate of Hokkaido island affects the adipocytes (fat cells) inside human body. Akamoku seaweed for "Fucoxanthin 1000" is cultivated in Hakodate Marine Bio-Cluster located in the coastal waters near Hakodate, an ideal place for growing this seaweed.

Brown seaweeds such as akamoku or wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) or kombu (Laminaria japonica) are known to contain fucoxanthin - the red pigment essential for photosynthesis and a substance which is known to help control weight and strengthen the immmune system (similarly to fucoidan which is also contained in these seaweeds). Fucoxanthin is contained in most seaweeds of Sargassum family, but akamoku (Sargassum horneri) is the absolute fucoxanthin champion containing 400mg of fucoxanthin per every 100 grams of dry seaweed. There are two types of adipocytes (fat cells) inside human body: white ones are responsible for storing fat and the brown ones are responsible for burning it.

Professor Kazuo Miyashita discovered that when we take fucoxanthin, UCPI proteins that naturally appear only in brown adipocytes also start appearing in white adipocites that stimulates burning excess fat. In 2005 professor Kazuo Miyashita published his research results which among other point out that fucoxanthin is capable of controlling blood sugar level and thus is effective to help mitigate diabetes. Fucoxanthin used in this product is manufactured by Kaneka corporation (Japan).
