Frequently Asked Questions
Why is seaweed so good for you?
Seaweeds offer a huge range of health benefits, starting with their nutrient density. Each seaweed type offers a unique range of vitamins and minerals, some of which (e.g iodine and selenium) are not available from land based plants. Remineralising your body can have a dramatic positive impact on many areas of holistic health.
Seaweeds are known for their abilities to detox. Seaweeds act like sponges in the ocean ~ they contain unique bio-active compounds which attract and process heavy metals and environmental pollutants. They will also perform this gently detoxing function in your gut when you eat them.
Seaweeds can help to balance your body functions and systems. This ranges from supporting lower blood pressure (due to their potassium content), promoting lipid metabolism in the liver, and helping to regulate endocrine function. They are highly alkaline, so soothing for the digestive tract and a good source of prebiotic fibre.
Can I use seaweed as a substitute for salt if I am on a low sodium diet?
Yes! If you crave salt it could be a sign of mineral deficiency. Seaweeds contain potassium and other minerals as well as sodium, so they make an excellent, naturally iodised alternative to a regular table salt, and are a great way to substitute salt on a low sodium diet.
