Interstitial cystitis (IC/BPS) affects 3-8 million Americans and is characterized by bladder wall inflammation, defective glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer, mast cell activation, and chronic pelvic pain without bacterial infection. Discover how sea moss fucoidan -- a sulfated polysaccharide structurally similar to GAG compounds -- may support bladder lining integrity, how its anti-inflammatory properties reduce mast cell-mediated histamine release in bladder tissue, how magnesium supports pelvic floor smooth muscle relaxation, and how its prebiotic fiber supports the gut microbiome that influences bladder inflammatory responses. Critical: IC/BPS requires urology evaluation; sea moss is supportive nutritional complement only, and certain seaweed compounds may irritate sensitized bladders in some patients.
