Organic Seaweed Blend

Product Code OSS-100

The seaweed
This supplement includes iodine-rich food-approved seaweeds – Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus vesiculosus.

Ascophyllum nodosum is a large, common brown alga (Phaeophyceae) in the family Fucaceae, being the only species in the genus Ascophyllum. It is seaweed of the northern Atlantic Ocean, and is also known as rockweed, Norwegian kelp, knotted kelp, knotted wrack or egg wrack. It is common on the north-western coast of Europe (from Svalbard to Portugal) including East Greenland and the North-Eastern coast of North America. Seagreens® Ascophyllum nodosum is sourced from the Scottish Outer Hebrides and is the highest of Seagreens’® species in terms of iodine levels.

Fucus vesiculosus is known by the common name bladder wrack or bladderwrack. It is a seaweed found on the coasts of the North Sea, the Western Baltic Sea and the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. It also known by the common names black tang, rockweed, bladder fucus, sea oak, black tany, cut weed, dyers fucus, red fucus and rock wrack.

Overall, seaweeds form an essential source of natural iodine and are described as an ideal food-safe natural source of this important mineral.

Iodine
Iodine contributes to normal cognitive function, normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, the maintenance of normal skin, the normal production of thyroid hormones and normal thyroid function, as well as to the normal growth of children.

The iodine also has the added benefit of being sourced from seaweed that naturally contains all the other minerals and micronutrients needed for its proper transport and metabolism (including selenium, tyrosine, zinc, copper, vitamins A, B2, B3, B6 and C).

As most iodine is from dairy and meat, this supplement is ideal for vegan, vegetarian, allergy and intolerance diets.

The vegetables and herbs
As well as the seaweed, this organic food supplement also contains spirulina, artichoke, chlorella, green tea, ashwagandha and cayenne pepper.
