SEA MOSS BENEFITS

What is Sea Moss?

Sea Moss is a species of sea algae that provides an abundance of minerals that are essential to the human body like iron, B vitamins, protein, iodine, zinc, calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, vitamin C, and many more. It is a mineral-rich, alkaline food source that can help the body improve its pH balance, hydrate & heal on many levels.

There are actually three well-known types of sea moss- purple Chondrus Crispus usually referred to as “Irish Moss,” Golden Gracilaria commonly known as Jamaican sea moss, and Eucheuma Cottonii, which is grown in warm climates most notably around Jamaica and St. Lucia. All of our sea moss is Eucheuma Cottonii and sourced directly from the pristine waters of St. Lucia. It is highly available and comes with similarly high nutritional content which makes it incredibly great for your overall health.
