Sea moss is a type of seaweed that is high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and protein. It has many potential health benefits, including:
-
Support thyroid health :
Our thyroid gland releases hormones for growth, energy, reproduction, and repair, requiring nutrients like iodine and tyrosine. These nutrients are found in seaweed, with levels varying depending on the variety and storage methods, and are essential for maintaining overall health. -
Supports Gut health :
Seaweed is a rich source of dietary fiber, particularly polysaccharides, which can be digested by gut bacteria. This serves as a prebiotic, providing food for beneficial gut microbes, which contribute to our health by producing short chain fatty acids, which are essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system. -
May support immunity
The harsh conditions of the coastal waters in which seaweed, like sea moss, have evolved to survive has meant they’ve developed an enviable defence mechanism. As such, they are rich in phytochemicals which, when consumed, provide health benefits including immune modulation and improved immune response for the consumer. -
May improve blood sugar control
Seaweed, rich in carotenoid and fucoxanthin compounds, may aid in blood sugar management and potentially reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by reducing insulin resistance and slowing digestion speed, making it a beneficial addition to a balanced diet. -
May support heart health
Seaweed, including sea moss, is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, crucial for heart and cardiovascular health. Studies suggest it can improve cholesterol balance and reduce heart disease risk. However, more research is needed to understand the specific health effects of sea moss in the human diet.
