Sea Moss


Sea moss is a type of red algae that’s become popular as a nutrient-dense superfood. It’s been used traditionally in the Caribbean, Ireland, and coastal parts of Europe for centuries — both as a food thickener and as a natural remedy.

Sea moss offers mineral & nutrient support

  • Containing 92 of the 102 minerals the human body needs, including iodine, calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, selenium, and sulfur.

  • Rich in vitamins A, C, E, K, and folate.

  • Often used as a natural supplement for nutrient gaps in the diet.

Thyroid Health

  • Naturally high in iodine, which supports healthy thyroid hormone production.

  • May help regulate metabolism, energy, and mood in people with low iodine intake.

Digestive Health

  • Contains soluble fiber (mucilage) that acts as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria.

  • Soothes the digestive tract and may help with acid reflux, gastritis, and ulcers.

Immune Support

  • Rich in antioxidants and antiviral compounds.

  • Traditionally used to help fight colds, flu, and respiratory issues by soothing mucus membranes.

Skin Health

  • High sulfur content may help with acne, eczema, and psoriasis when taken internally or applied as a mask.

  • Hydrates and improves skin elasticity.

Joint & Connective Tissue Health

  • Sulfur and collagen-like compounds support joint lubrication and repair of connective tissues.

  • May reduce stiffness in arthritis.

Energy & Recovery

  • Mineral content supports electrolyte balance, making it useful after workouts or illness.

  • Some athletes use sea moss gel in smoothies for faster recovery.

Culinary & Practical Uses

  • Thickening agent in soups, stews, sauces, and desserts (used to make “Irish moss pudding” in traditional recipes).

  • Added to smoothies, teas, juices, and gel-based wellness shots.

  • Can be made into sea moss gel — the most common way it’s consumed today.
