Atlantic Kelp (Bladderwrack) Powder, Fucus vesiculosus Certified Organic (USA) Food Grade
Kelp is seaweed, also known as Bladderwrack, used traditionally as a rich natural source of Iodine.
Iodine rich compounds, including kelp, may raise the metabolic rate by increasing hormone production by the thyroid gland and therefore may ease the symptoms of underactive thyroid function and related lethargy and weight gain.
Kelp is a natural source of amino acids, vitamins A, B1, B2, C, D and E, and other minerals including zinc, magnesium, iron, potassium, copper and calcium.
Other reported uses: arthritis, colorectal cancer. The consumption of seaweed in general, is associated with lower cancer rates.
Used topically, in bath products, soaps, wraps, and scrubs, Kelp does improve the complexion of the skin ,helps shrink fat cells, and reduces the appearance of blotches and cellulitis.
How to Use: Powdered seaweed is often the chef’s choice, but it's also perfect for those who require a finer consistency or want a stronger burst of flavour. A little goes a long way as the flavour is concentrated and adds intense, salty piquancy to dishes. At home, it's a natural choice for boosting your iodine levels in fruit or veg smoothies.
