Quality Essentials: Sea Moss

Sea moss is a nutritious and powerful algae/sea vegetable that has been a part of the human diet for thousands of years from the tropical Jamaican beaches all the way to Europe. Red sea moss can be traced back to China in 600 BC, being used for its medical properties. As well as a food source in 400 BC along the British Isles. The Irish were known to use it as a food replacement during times of famine, allowing them to be completely sustained.

The health benefits of sea moss speak for themselves. Containing 92 of the 110 minerals the human body is made of, this is just one of many beneficial aspects. Other potential perks may include:

• Boosted Immunity

• Improved Thyroid Health

• Improved Gut Health

• Improved Heart Health/Blood Pressure

• Aids Blood Sugar Management

• Weight Loss

• Aids Muscle Growth

Initially considered to be a best kept secret in the holistic healing community, it has grown dramatically in popularity in recent years, most notably due to the endorsement by the late Dr. Sebi in mainstream media. Unfortunately, with this growth in popularity, it has also sparked people to create their own nonauthentic versions of it to sell. For those intending on purchasing their own for use, it is often highly encouraged to find a vendor who sells wildcrafted sea moss vs anything produced in controlled conditions. So it is very important to research who/where you choose to buy.

I hope this sparks you all to consider incorporating sea moss into your diets. I can promise you that you won’t regret it!
