What is Sea Moss?

Sea moss is a type of red algae, also known as Irish moss. It's a superfood rich in nutrients and can be consumed raw, in supplements (pills, powders, gels, gummies), or even used as a thickening agent in food.

Benefits of Sea Moss:

  • Heart-Healthy: Sea moss is high in fiber, which can improve blood sugar control, lower cholesterol, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.
  • May Promote Weight Loss: Due to its high fiber content, sea moss can keep you feeling full and help with weight management.
  • Good Source of Iodine: Sea moss is a natural source of iodine, essential for a healthy thyroid gland.
  • Supports Gut Health: Packed with fiber and live bacteria, sea moss helps replenish good gut bacteria and promotes gut health.
  • May Boost Immunity: A healthy gut is linked to a strong immune system. Sea moss is also rich in iron and antioxidants, further contributing to immune health.
  • May Build Muscle and Aid Recovery: Sea moss contains Taurine, an amino acid that supports muscle building and recovery.

Side Effects of Sea Moss Supplements:

While generally safe, sea moss can have some downsides:

  • Excessive Iodine Intake: Too much iodine can be harmful. Be mindful of your total iodine intake from all sources if consuming sea moss.
  • Heavy Metals: Seaweed can absorb heavy metals from the water. While small amounts are unlikely to cause harm, excessive consumption of sea moss is not recommended.
  • Unpleasant Taste and Texture: Raw sea moss has an earthy taste and a slimy texture similar to aloe vera.
