Irish Sea Moss (92 Minerals)

Sea moss is a marine vegetable that has gained a lot of popularity in recent years. It’s known for containing many nutrients that the human body needs.

Those planning to start a plant-based diet have probably heard of this miracle food, but what do people actually know about sea moss and where it comes from?

Irish sea moss is a generic name given to a collection of different species of seaweed. Eucheuma cottonii and Chondrus crispus are some of the most popular species with the moniker of Irish sea moss. The term is applied to a range of seaweed species almost interchangeably across different regions.

During the height of the Irish Potato Famine in the 1840s, the Irish population faced a period of mass starvation and disease that lasted for almost a decade. It was caused by one of the worst cases of potato blight in European history, resulting in widespread hunger and a dramatic decline in population. Because of the famine, people started to search for alternate ways to meet their nutritional needs. It was then sea moss was discovered as a source of food. Hence, the name "Irish" sea moss, regardless of its origin.

This superfood has 92 of the 102 minerals the body needs. It is rich in calcium, magnesium, chromium, sulfur compounds, protein, iodine, bromine, selenium, pectin, manganese, potassium, iron, zinc, B vitamins, and vitamin C.

Sea moss is antibacterial and has anti-inflammatory properties. It’s most commonly used as a demulcent treatment for ailments such as colds, flu, coughs, cancer, diabetes, and intestinal issues. It also supports joints, bones, and skin, and even helps regulate mood for better overall mental health.

Natural Mood Enhancer

Sea moss is a natural antidepressant due to its high potassium levels (8x more than a banana). Potassium is especially good for our mental health because it helps activate and regulate serotonin in our brain. The chemical serotonin is a natural painkiller that promotes happy feelings. Those who take sea moss daily have reported a decline or elimination of anxiety and depression, and many discontinued antidepressants they previously needed.
