Chondrus Crispus is the most superior of Sea Moss and is found in the coastal regions of North America and Europe. Its superiority is due to its darker pigmentation and the harsh environment it was born out making it a more resilient species of moss, allowing us to obtain more nutritional benefits.
In Irish folklore, sea moss was used to treat respiratory diseases like pneumonia and tuberculosis. And due to its dense nutrient content, it was also a staple during the devastating potato famine of the 1840s allowing people to survive and thrive during periods of starvation.
Chondrus Crispus is also known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, respiratory support and mucus membrane support. Also aiding thyroid imbalances, diabetes, skin, joints and mental health to name a few.
Sea moss contains vitamins and minerals such as; vitamins A, B12, C, D, E and K, magnesium, potassium, iodine, sulfur, calcium, selenium, folates, fiber, copper, phosphorus, zinc, riboflavin, and manganese, bromine etc. These minerals supply energy to the body, regulate digestion, and detoxify the body as well as a range of other benefits.
