5 Sea Moss Gel Benefits

Sea moss gel has a number of potential health benefits which include:

High in essential nutrients

Sea moss gel stands out for its sense of nutritional benefits, making it a true superfood. It contains a number of vitamins and minerals that help contribute to overall health and well-being. It is a rich source of iodine and vitamins A, C, D and E all of which play crucial roles in heart health and brain health.

Supports Digestive Health

Sea moss gel is rich in dietary fibre, particularly carrageenan, which is known for its beneficial properties in supporting digestion, overall gut health and weight loss. Sea moss also acts as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of healthy gut bacteria. This dual action can contribute to digestive wellness, making sea moss gel a natural remedy for many gut issues.

Boosts the immune system

A strong immune system is crucial for defending the body against infections and illnesses. Thanks to its high levels of vitamin C, sea moss is great to take when feeling a little under the weather to improve immune response and help maintain a strong immune function.

Hair, Skin and Nail Health

Achieving and maintaining healthy hair, skin and nails is a goal for many, and sea moss gel is great for achieving this. Thanks to its high levels of vitamin E, it promotes hydrated skin, strong hair follicles and nail beds. Additionally, sea moss gel’s anti-inflammatory properties make it great for a number of skin conditions including eczema and psoriasis.

It is also beneficial to use as a natural face mask, to improve complexion, reduce blemishes and promote overall skin health.

Thyroid Health

The thyroid gland relies on high levels of iodine for the production of thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism, energy production, and hormonal balance. Sea moss gel has a high iodine content, making it an ideal addition to your diet for proper thyroid function. A healthy thyroid is essential for maintaining overall health and well-being.

 

What makes our sea moss gel different? 

Sourced Wild from the Ocean

Wild sea moss owes its high nutritional content to the ocean rocks it grows on, whereas Farmed sea moss is grown on ropes and sometimes in artificial pool conditions. Our Seamoss is sourced from the Indian Ocean where it grows naturally on the coast of Zanzibar. 

Dried Naturally in the Sun

MagicTree Seamoss is dried naturally in the Sun which means it is not subject to any artificial heat which retains the nutritional integrity of the sea moss from the moment it leaves the Ocean.
