Sea Moss, 8000mg
What is it? - Sea moss, also known by the scientific name Chondrus crispus, is a type of red algae or seaweed found along the Atlantic coasts of North America, Europe, and the Caribbean. Despite being classified as a 'red algae', sea moss comes in a variety of colors in its natural form. The algae are red at the base, green towards the center, and blue at the tips of the thallus. The red color of the algae can be attributed to the presence of a pigment known as phycocyanin, either alone or in combination with phycocyanin. Historical/Traditional Uses - Often used in Caribbean cultures, sea moss is processed into a gel that is added to many traditional dishes, from soups to desserts, acting as a thickener and imparting a mild salty flavor. During the Irish Potato Famine, this red moss became a popular affordable food source in Ireland due to its promising nutritional profile and ability to thicken soups and add a creamy texture to jellies and custards without causing a significant change in taste. In recent years, sea moss has been available in many different forms, but the most common are gel and capsules. Irish sea moss has been harvested and used by humans for centuries. One of the earliest references to Irish sea moss for food use was from people living along the coasts of the northeast Atlantic, where the algae are abundant. Nutrition - The nutritional composition of sea moss can vary depending on processing methods, the region from which it is harvested, and the specific type of sea moss. Overall, this red algae is packed with a variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants with few calories.
