Dried Seamoss

Make your own Seamoss gels with our organic, hand harvested St Lucian Seamoss. Golden and Purple Seamoss (Gracilaria) from St Lucia, Atlantic Irish Moss (Chondrus Crispus) from Ireland

Naturally high in iron, calcium, magnesium, and other vital minerals, Seamoss also contains iodine which can promote a healthy thyroid function and balance metabolism, helping to maintain a healthy body.

Consuming Seamoss can assist in removal of mucus from the intestinal tract so is useful as part of any detox or clean eating routine. Clearing this mucus helps to repair the lining of the gut, allows for greater absorption of vitamins and increases bioavailability of nutrients in other food.

The minerals found in Seamoss are thought to contribute to:

Increased energy
Healthy hair, skin and nails
A healthy immune system
Muscle and joint recovery (great post workout)
Repairing cellular damage and stress, great after any illness or operation.
Remineralisation
Post partum support
A healthy heart
Improved libido

Purple Seamoss (Gracilaria)
Same genus as Golden Seamoss, but thought to grow in deeper water and be slightly higher in nutrients.

Irish Moss (Chondrus Crispus)
A red algae that’s great for skin and well known for thyroid support. Also called Carrageen, it is variable in colour ranging from green to dark red. Hand harvested from the pristine waters of the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of County Clare, this Irish moss is rich in vitamins A, B, C, D, E, F and K, proteins and antioxidants (beta carotene). Contains essential minerals including large quantities of calcium, iodine, sulphur and potassium, but also bromine, magnesium, iron, manganese, phosphorus, selenium, zinc, and pectin, making it an ideal superfood to speed up recovery from illness & protect the body against inflammation.
Chondrus Crispus can also help soften skin and strengthen hair, and will work particularly well in bath salts or a bath bag for detoxifying and skin-softening properties.

Gracilaria grows in warm climates such as the Caribbean. There has been some discussion regarding videos of Dr Sebi where he speaks about Chondrus Chrispus but is referring at times to the Gracilaria genus. Studies have been done on both genus suggesting benefits of each. It is thought that Gracilaria is more effective at clearing mucus and assisting detoxification, whilst Chondrus Crispus is slightly more nutrient dense, useful in protecting the body against inflammation, supporting neurological health and recovery, and being slightly higher in pectins which may help to protect the body from radiation.
