Welcome to Seaweed Ireland !

As many people and cultures have realized over the centuries, vegetable products from the sea can help you to live both better and longer. Our products won’t reverse the aging process, but they can certainly help slow it down! Why? Because people  have the potential to grow old in good health.

Seaweeds do need light to grow.

Seaweed is a Photosynthetic organism, relying on a variety of pigments to capture light energy from the sun.

                      Color,(photosynthetic pigments), food storage and Cell Wall components.

Fibre or cell wall components. 

Applications.

Applications include: alternative health, alternative medicine, health foods, health products, dietary supplements, nutrition, minerals and vitamins, pet food, cosmetics, bath, drinks, fertilizer, bio fuel, etc.

Early Medicine.

The “folk medicine” in coastal zones made extensive use of a variety of seaweed species. Knowledge of the tonic and healing powers of seaweed was passed down among coastal peoples from generation to generation because the mineral content of sea vegetables is extraordinary, and is seen as the root of most of their healing properties. Seaweed has been part of the traditional diet of all coastal cultures, like Japan and China, Hawaii, Wales, Scotland, Iceland, and Ireland. With advances in medicine today, the reasons behind the success of some of these treatments are being elucidated, because we now understand more of the nutritional and biochemical properties of different seaweeds or algae.

Whole food; vegetables, fruit, spice and herbs.

For the first 8000 years of civilization, humans relied on foods and herbs for medicine. It is only in the past 70 years that we have forgotten our medicinal "roots" in favor of patent medicines. While pharmaceuticals have their value, we should not forget the well-documented, non-toxic and inexpensive healing properties of whole foods.

Most of the seaweed is sold in dehydrated form, as flakes, leaves, granules, sheets, or powder. Easy to use and to store. Use for soups, salads, various dishes, casseroles, stew, or stir-fried with veggies. It may also be eaten with cereals and grains like rice, bread, and pasta. We can call upon other harvesters in case we do not have an item you want: see list.

Health, Spirituality and Human Consciousness.

 Think of a world dominated by waves or vibrations, the universe connected by an underlying fluctuating energy field, a sea of energy connecting everything and anything, and different from the worldview propagated by science, politics, and the establishment.

Here you never act alone. All of our actions affect others and at the end of the day, or at the end of our life, the only thing any of us really “has” is our effect upon others.

Body, cells and molecules. Science uses (QSAR) the key and lock interaction model where two molecules who match each other structurally exchange specific (chemical) information. However, due to the low local presence, the statistical change that it will happen is low. The vibrations of one molecule causes another one to vibrate to or tune in (resonance), creating a cascade of electromechanical impulses which travel near the speed of light. It explains the speed in which emotions like anger or fear manifest themselves. It is now clear that both specific molecules and intermolecular bonds emit at certain specific frequencies which can be detected far away.

The electromagnetic frequencies used correspond with frequencies in the audio range and lay between 20 hertz and 20 kilohertz. Replacing a mineral within a protein with another will lead to different properties and oscillating properties.

Within Ancient traditions; the power of the earth (plants) to be combined with products of the sea (flexibility) and variation (spices and herbs), digestion, is the key to a long and healthy life. In Okinawa old people did stay healthy and active well after their 100^th birthday. This happened without science, healthcare, and food safety. 

Here are some pointers:

• The digestive system can/will slow down if not properly stimulated, by chewing less, using soft food, being in a rush, and watching TV. The problems with soft food and bad eating habits are that it might not challenge the digestive system needed to break down fibre and  encourage the gut to squeeze it along.

• A weak gut can enflame easily from spicy foods, resulting in limits to the variety you can eat, loss of taste, and the enjoyment of good food.

• Use a wide variety of food in the diet, both from a nutritional point of view, but also to maintain a healthy interest in food. You must eat enough food to get sufficient minerals and vitamins needed to fight heart disease, stroke, some cancers, obesity, osteoporosis, and arthritis. Malnutrition is one of the big problems in the ageing population.

Spirituality and consciousness are very important too; the main point stressed that life is to be sought by man, not from within himself or in his own power, but from outside, from Him who emphatically is Life. (God, Spirit, Nature, Consciousness). The alternatives are the man-made/ruled society, the development of the city, state, and industrialization, man’s obsession with material goods, and at the end questions about the value of its foundations, what is best for humanity, sharing values, and its longevity.

The Holistic approach.

The laws of nature, the seasons, natural cycles, the interconnectedness and dependency of all living beings. 

The concept of natural harmony, however, is missing in modern science. There is no soul and spirit. Despite advanced technology, knowledge and science, modern people are becoming increasingly sick, both physically and mentally, are unhappy and lonely. Problems such as mental stress, anxiety, depression and nervous debility are common. These problems, which relate to the mind, have a very negative impact on a person’s life. These days, most of the threats to your health and wellbeing come from outside (nearly all are man-made): living conditions,  stress,  malnutrition, pollution (air, water  and soil),  conflicts,  ideology, politics, exploitation,  aggression, repression, restrictions, corruption, and war.
