Sodium Alginate is a natural amylose carbohydrate distilled from alga. It is widely applied to food, medicine, textile, printing and dyeing, paper-making and daily chemicals as thickener, emulsifier, stabilizer and binder etc. Sodium Alginate is exploring more in food application, especially since 1980s forward. It is not only a safety food additive, but also a basis material of modelling food or dietary food. As the natural cellulose, it can slow the absorption of fatty sugar; and bilesalt, reduce serum cholesterol, triglyceride in the blood; and blood sugar to prevent high blood pressure, diabetes and adiposity, the modern diseases, as well as control the accumulation of noxious metals, such as Sr, Cd and lead . Its importance has been increasingly recognized by home and abroad, so Japanese call the food rich in sodium Alginate "longevity food", while Americans call it "magic food additive".
