Wild-Harvested Sea Moss

Sea moss provide vital essential minerals, dissolves inflammation and phlegm in mucus membranes; high in iodine and selenium, both of which are essential for a healthy thyroid function; is a rich vegan source of omega-3 fatty acids which is key in reducing inflammation; helps improve mental function and heart health.

 

Sea moss is good source of soluble and insoluble fiber, both of which are essential in good digestion and gut health; rebuilds damaged, undernourished skin from a cellular level.

 

Sea moss also contains potassium iodide, potassium bromide, natural carrageenan, and sulfurs, all of which all assist in hydrating joint cartilage for healthy joint support and is a bone-health superfood. Sea moss is also high in zinc, vitamin E, and folate content. 

Step 1 – Wash (most crucial step)

Make sure you get as much of the sand, salt, and other impurities off your sea moss as you can in this first wash. Change the water and rinse your sea moss before moving on to the next step.  

  

Step 2 – Soak

Soak sea moss for 24 hours with a couple of lemons/limes. Make sure your sea moss is completely submerged. 

 

I prefer to soak my sea moss rather than cook it. Raw foods have better energetic properties plus, cooking your sea moss kills off much of its sacred energy. 

  

When soaking, make sure the water is as pure as possible. Use purified or distilled water., this is important.  

  

(Optional) Add crystals in the water to help energize the sea moss.  

  

Step 3 – Blend  

Remove sea moss from water and give a final rinse purified or distilled water before putting it in the blender.  

  

When blending the sea moss, don’t add too much water, add water as you go, until you get the viscosity (thickness) that you want.  

  

The less water you add the thicker and more jelly-like the mix will be. This will also thicken up when refrigerated.  

  

Step 4 – Storing 

Make sure that you use a jar that has been thoroughly cleaned. I like to pour a pot of boiling hot water into the jar and allow it to cool. The lid will need to be clean too, and effective at sealing the jar. I recommend a mason jar. 

  

** The sea moss gel will keep in the fridge for between 2 to 3 weeks. 

How do I store sea moss?
Raw, dried sea moss can be stored up to 12 months in a an air sealed container or air tight packaging away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.

Can I take sea moss if pregnant?
Sea moss is great for an expecting mother. By adding sea moss to your diet you will maximize the amount of vitamins, nutrients and minerals being consumed so that mom is not left feeling drained after the unborn child has had its full share of the food benefits. It is an amazing additional to the family regimen and can help avoid, anemia, fatigue, swelling in the legs, feet and more. 

Herbalist's Message

As with any natural or herbal product, the key is consistency and patience. People are used to quick fixes and that approach is just not the case when trying to make the changes necessary for a healthier lifestyle.

 

People who use herbs as symptom-relieving remedies will often be disappointed as most herbs don't target specific biochemical reactions to create rapid changes. Instead, herbs work with the body in extremely complex ways to bring about balance in the body. 

 

It is important to note that herbs will not make up for lack of sleep, dehydration or a diet filled with processed and refined foods.
