Microalgae in Health and Disease Prevention is a comprehensive reference that addresses the historical and potential use of microalgae, its extracts, secondary metabolites, and molecular constituents for enhancing human health and preventing diseases. Each chapter features an overview, and the book includes coverage of microalgae biology, harmful algae, the use of microalgae in alcohol and food, and as sources of macronutrients, micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals. The historical use of microalgae, in addition to its potential use as a nutraceutical and cosmeceutical, is also addressed.

The book provides coverage of relevant, up-to-date research as assembled by a group of contributors who are dedicated to the advancement of microalgae use in health, diet and nutrition.

Dr. Ira A. Levine, PhD is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Southern Maine and the CEO of the Algae Foundation. He has previously been awarded a 2009–2010 US State Department, Fulbright New Century Scholar and the 2016–2017 Fulbright Distinguished Chair Fellowship. He combines 40 years of applied and basic research in the physiological ecology and cultivation of algae, aquatic and farming management. His farming experience includes open-ocean and pond cultivation in Canada, China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, and the United States. As the CEO of the Algae Foundation, he is currently focused on algal-based workforce development, education, and training in the United States and 100 other countries. Dr. Joël Fleurence, PhD, is a Professor of Marine Biology and Biochemistry at Nantes University in the ISOMER laboratory. In 1985, he began his research career in the pharmaceutical industry at the French Company Roussel-Uclaf. In 1990, he was recruited by the Institute of Valorization of Seaweeds to lead research about the chemical composition and nutritional properties of macro-algae. He contributed to French regulation on marine algae used as sea vegetables. His research mainly focuses on the use of seaweed proteins in human nutrition.
