Fucoxanthin from marine alga has beneficial used to alleviate hyperlipidemia due to high antioxidant capacity. The challenge to use this material due to unstable in harsh condition. Some previous studies showed extraction method was a crucial point to extract fucoxanthin. After extraction, fucoxanthin need to be encapsulated because it was not stable in the gastrointestinal tract. In this review article will be describe fucoxanthin, extraction method in fucoxanthin, encapsulation method for fucoxanthin and the ability of fucoxanthin to alleviate hyperlipidemia. The article was used in this review from 2015-2023 that has been published in journal portal. The results of this review showed advance extraction method in fucoxanthin to increase yield content done at low temperature. Encapsulation technique used to stabilized this active material and can be used as targeted release component in gastrointestinal tract. Due to high content of antioxidant, fucoxanthin can be used to alleviate hyperlipidemia through enhancement fat oxidation, regulation body weight, lipid metabolism management and regulation fat through AMPK regulation. From this review article showed that fucoxanthin can be used as treatments to alleviate hyperlipidemia.
