Corallina officinalis

Other names: Linnaeus

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


Corallina officinalis, often referred to by the name Linnaeus, is a species of red algae that is often found in coastal areas around the world. It is distinguished by its typical appearance, which resembles small corals, due to the presence of calcareous fragments in its cell wall, which give it a firm and fragile structure. Corallina officinalis inhabits mainly coastal wetland areas where it can attach itself to rocky substrates and thus survive in difficult conditions.

Thanks to its mineral and trace element content, Corallina officinalis is used in a number of products. In the cosmetics industry, this algae is used for its moisturizing and regenerating effects and can be found in a number of creams, masks or skin tonics. It is also used in the food industry as a natural source of calcium and other minerals and is added to dietary supplements. Corallina officinalis is also important in the pharmaceutical industry, where it is used in the production of drugs to regulate blood pressure. However, its practical use is much wider and new uses are constantly being discovered because of its medicinal properties.
