5 reasons to buy and serve seaweed

Publication date: 02-07-2019

Consumers  are increasingly aware of the effect of a healthy lifestyle on body and mind.

Have you ever thought about experimenting with seaweed products? The worldwide demand for sea vegetables has increased sharply in recent years. Why would you put them on the map?

Please contact our sales team for more info, we will be happy to supply you Chuka Wakame Seaweed and Hijiki Seaweed

 

 

We list 5 reasons for you:

1) Few calories, lots of nutrients

A cup of seaweed contains only 30 calories. And in addition to being low in calories, it is rich in calcium, iodine, magnesium, iron and contains several B vitamins. And if that's not enough, seaweed also contains omega 3 fatty acid, thiamine and niacin. Thiamine is essential for the energy supply of the body and niacin is good for blood circulation and promotes a healthy cholesterol level

2) Digestion

The alginate in seaweed provides protection of the intestinal wall, making digestion slower and the nutrients can be better absorbed.

3) Detox

Eating seaweed products supports the removal of waste and heavy metals from your body.

4)  Healthy heart

Did you know that the longest-living people are from Okinawa (Japan), where they often eat seaweed. The fibres in seaweed can help to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of strokes and heart attacks.

5) Iodine

Do you want your thyroid to function properly? Iodine is essential for that. We cannot live without the hormones that the thyroid makes.
