So what is Irish Sea Moss?

1. Treating Skin Issues – The iodine present helps treat skin issues such as rashes and acne breakouts by increasing metabolism which balances hormones and eliminates toxins from the bloodstream. Skin issues like eczema are tied to the thyroid gland which is why it’s recommended for preventing and treating skin issues.

2. Removing Mucus – You may have heard of mucilaginous plants as a means to remove excess mucus from the body, Purple sea moss is one of those plants. Used as a natural expectorant, it soothes coughs, sore throats, respiratory illnesses and so much more.

3. Alleviating Stress – While it’s still unknown exactly how purple sea moss works it is believed to have the ability to increase serotonin levels which are responsible for feeling happy or joyful. It does this by increasing metabolism in the body similar to how it treats skin issues since higher metabolism means more energy.

4. Increasing Energy – I believe increasing energy is one of the best benefits of purple sea moss since it does so much more than just rid the body of mucus. Energy levels are directly tied to our moods, immune system, and thyroid function amongst other things (which is why hypothyroidism makes you tired). Proper energy levels will result in an overall higher quality of life.

5. Lowering Blood Pressure – The ability to lower blood pressure has been proven by multiple studies, typically this is done through food since it’s difficult to administer medicine or supplements orally. Since the thyroid hormone regulates metabolism increasing the metabolism via purple sea moss will increase urination which will expel excess fluid from the body.

6. Treatment of Cancer – The ability to prevent cancerous growth is yet another health benefit of purple sea moss which has been proven in multiple studies.

7. Treating Congestion & Cough – Purple sea moss is used as a natural expectorant meaning it helps remove excess mucus from the lungs and respiratory system. When congested, phlegm is oftentimes not coughed up which causes the body to become more toxic. The ability of purple sea moss to act as an expectorant helps eliminate excess mucus so you can breathe easily.

8. Strengthening the Immune System – According to Dr. Sebi, “the immune system is the only system in your body that is designed to attack, kill, encompass and digest – anything.” This makes it imperative to strengthen the immune system so you can ward off diseases before they even develop. The increase in metabolism helps cleanse the body of toxins which weakens the immune system thus creating obstacles for disease growth.

9. Increasing Metabolism – The thyroid gland controls metabolism, which is why eating too much sugar can result in weight gain. Purple sea moss should be consumed daily to increase your overall metabolic rate so you can rid the body of excess mucus and toxins.

10. Decreasing Hunger & Cravings – This benefits anyone who would like to lose weight but is not a long-term solution, as natural weight loss occurs as you eat mostly alkaline foods. Carrageenan is a major bioactive component in sea moss. It can gel and is therefore classified as soluble fiber by your body’s inability to digest it. Soluble fiber absorbs water and forms a gel-like substance. This slows digestion by increasing the rate at which food moves through your digestive tract and delaying the rate at which your stomach empties its contents.

It may help you eat less since it fills you up for longer, thus meaning that you will feel fuller for longer. Frequent soluble fiber consumption has been connected to lower body weight.

11. Treating Leukemia – According to those who have been treated with purple sea moss, its ability to remove excess mucus and cleanse the body is what helps treat leukemia. Sea moss is being studied as a potential treatment for cancer. According to experts, this seaweed contains a variety of compounds and chemicals. And scientists anticipate that they will be able to “create” such medicines in the near future that can specifically target cancer cells.

12. Lowering Stress Levels – Purple Sea Moss contains “Minerals such as calcium and magnesium that provide the most benefit when taken together with vitamin C.” Calcium relaxes muscles and blood vessels, magnesium relaxes muscles, and vitamin C helps the body absorb calcium.

13. Lowering Blood Sugar – Purple sea moss “contain(s) porphyrins that have been shown to help lower blood sugar levels.” This is especially beneficial for those diagnosed with diabetes or those routinely consuming high glycemic foods such as refined carbohydrates and sugars.

14. Preventing Kidney Stones – According to Dr. Sebi, one of the many benefits of purple sea moss is its ability to prevent kidney stones by removing excess uric acid from the body. This makes it an essential ingredient in any natural weight loss program since kidney stones are often caused by elevated levels of uric acid.

15. Anti-Aging Properties – Sea Moss is rich with calcium, iron, and iodine which are key nutrients for generating new skin cells. Purple sea moss contains an abundance of amino acids, including glutamic acid which works with cysteine (a sulfur-containing amino acid) to help produce glutathione. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant and anti-aging agent which can protect against sun damage, prevent wrinkles and sagging of the skin.

16. SEA MOSS IS SAFE FOR PREGNANT WOMEN IN MODERATION – While sea moss has a lot of amazing nutrition that can support a developing fetus, not all sea moss is safe to consume when pregnant. It may have high levels of heavy metals depending on where it's grown.

At MADDHEALING, Sea Moss is Wildcrafted in St Lucia, the Caribbean, due to the less fossil fuel ports in this area, and is NEVER ALLOWED TO BE POOL GROWN.

Sea moss is safe to eat while pregnant since it contains less mercury and iodine than brown seaweed. The suggestion that this plant can aid in childbirth may be true.

Let’s check the folate first. The amount of folate in a 100-gram serving of sea moss is 182mcg. This amount is over half of the recommended daily dose of 400 mcg.

When you’re attempting to conceive, taking a folate vitamin might help. This vitamin can increase the likelihood of pregnancy and benefit your childbirth.

Zinc, which affects the egg quality of animals, is also available in this food. It’s now common that you should take enough zinc for conceiving.

How about the iodine level? This nutrient can cause hypothyroidism, which makes it difficult to conceive. However, the lack of iodine also matters.

Thankfully, the iodine concentration in sea moss is ideal for pregnant women. You will have a healthy thyroid and avoid hyperthyroidism at the same time.

It is also a thickening agent in many foods, including ice cream and baby formula.

Sea moss is full of nutrients that are beneficial to both pregnant and breastfeeding women. However, excessive concentrations of most minerals in your body can cause health problems for you and your baby, so high doses of ANY supplement should generally be avoided.

Among other nutrients, sea moss contains large amounts of minerals that nowaday very hard to find in food:

Iron

Iron is needed to produce healthy red blood cells for you and the baby. It is not uncommon for pregnant women to suffer from anemia, a shortage of red blood cells, resulting from producing about 50% more blood than usual.

Zinc

A zinc deficiency can increase your risk for preterm birth or difficult labor.

Potassium

Potassium regulates the balance of fluids and electrolytes throughout your body. It is vital for supporting your increased blood volume during pregnancy.

Phosphorus

Phosphorus is an essential mineral for making strong bones and supports your health by supporting tissue repair, kidney function, and other essential body functions.

Calcium

Calcium is another important mineral for building healthy teeth and bones, as well as supporting your nervous system.

Iodine

Iodine regulates your thyroid, which is responsible for managing your metabolism and ensuring the healthy growth of the baby. Iodine can also help with breastmilk production, as most women with low breastmilk supply are deficient in iodine.

Selenium

Selenium is also used to regulate thyroid function and act as an antioxidant that supports your immune system.

Manganese

Manganese helps form bone and cartilage. You probably already get enough of it from your regular diet as it is fairly abundant. Sea moss supplements could lead to overconsumption of manganese.

Vitamin A

Vitamin A is used for many functions in the body, but like manganese, it is easy to get in a regular diet, and too much of it can be harmful, harming bone strength.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is important for bone and tooth development as well as supporting the immune system. A vitamin C deficiency can make your body less able to absorb iron from your diet.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D regulates the amount of calcium from your diet that is used by your body. 

Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Omega 3 fatty acids are an essential building block of the brain and eye tissue, as well as being an essential nutrient for maintaining your own health during pregnancy.

Although typical dosing of sea moss doesn’t seem to put you at risk for overconsumption of nutrients, you should let your doctor know what vitamins or supplements you are taking so they can help you identify if you’re at risk for over or underconsumption of any important nutrients, pregnant or not.
