Sea moss is a small sea algae that grows to about 20 cm from a disc shape holdfast which is essentially its anchor. The branches are firm in texture that range in color from light to dark green, dark red, purple, brown, yellowish, and white. The most common color is off white.
Sea Moss contains 92 minerals of the 102 minerals that the human body consists of that are vital for our daily survival. This means most people could just about live off of this sea moss. When we give our body it's needed cell food, our body is able fight for us. The organic wildcrafted Irish moss and bladderwrack gel is a "time released" energizing fuel source, delivering nutrients over a longer period of time for a slower and more sustained nutritional uptake.
There are so many health benefits to incorporating sea moss into your diet. It is high in vitamin A, B, C and D. Contains Iodine (good for mental health) Iron and protein; B12 gives that energy boast levels; Treats ulcers and prevents high cholesterol levels; Great for hydrating and repairing the skin.
I put 1-2 tablespoons in my green juice or protein mix daily. It is also very popular ingredient in raw dessert recipes as it creates a thick consistency perfect for raw cheesecakes, non-dairy ice cream, sauces, dressings, jams, puddings and chutneys. It can be added to miso soup broths and creates a thick nutritious soup stock. Irish moss and bladderwrack gel can be shaking up into 4 to 8 oz of water without the strong fishy taste that is present in the powder form. It's also skin softening and it's healing properties provide an excellent facial mask.
Irish moss is widely available online (amazon, etsy) and also the best place to purchase it from. If you live in an ethnic neighbourhood then you can find Caribbean brands of Irish moss in your local supermarket. Make sure the moss that you purchase is whole and not flaked and definitely not made in China. Try to buy sea moss that is described as “wide harvested” or wildcrafted” this a good way of determining its authenticity. Irish moss should also have some signs of debris – sand/sea salt which needs to be thoroughly washed off using your hands.
