However, recent research has discovered that chondrus crispus contains a unique polysaccharide complex that provides numerous benefits to the skin. The discovery of these polysaccharides in chondrus crispus algae began with the study of carrageenan, a type of sulfated polysaccharide extracted from the plant. Carrageenan has been used in the food industry as a thickening and stabilising agent for decades.
