Within the natural world there is no family of foods known which is more protective against radiation and environmental pollutants than sea vegetables or seaweed. Sea vegetation contains compounds which bind with and remove toxins from the tissues of animals and humans. Many of them using seaweed for this purpose already some time. To compensate for using polluted food, compensate for air, water, land and products. The removal of toxins from there bodies becoming more and more important.
Kelp and other seaweed products are wonderful supplements to help with thyroid health and
radiation toxicity. Iodine deficiency has been linked to breast cancer and is associated with fatigue, weight gain and thick necks.
It is a very safe product and the dose may be temporarily increased if needed to help the thyroid block toxic radiation.We do recommend 2 gram/day but this can be increased to 2-4 gram/day. One capsule contains in average 1.2 mg of iodine. It is important to understand that these natural forms of iodine rich seaweeds are very safe and have additional health benefits. Products like Potassium can have side effects, unlike the natural forms of iodine found in kelp, Irish Rockweed and Bladderwrack.
Sea vegetables contain , not only minerals but hundred of different so-called phyto-chemicals, antioxidants, vitamins. They are important to your health because they have been shown to prevent cellular damage caused by highly reactive molecules known as free radicals.
Ageing:
We all age, but the deterioration associated with ageing can be controlled, at least, that is the way many specialist think. It is speeded up by toxicity and our bodies' response to it.

Your lifestyle and dietary choices can make an
enormous difference to your lifespan and to your quality of life in
later years. A good diet will help to keep healthy. All it takes is a
little work in the here and now.
Toxins play an important part in ageing. A toxin is defined as any compound that has a detrimental effect on cell function, cellular growth, tissue regeneration or structure. The more toxins you ingest, the faster you age. We all know that our Modern environment is toxic and the foods we eat, even the air we breathe and the water we drink is polluted with chemicals most of them foreign to our body. In our modern world managed to produce more than 2.000.000 synthetic substances. Many of them after use discarded into our environment. Each year more than 20.000 substances added that are proven to be toxic.

Our body is designed to utilize natural substances which include foods, herbs and phyto-chemicals. Increasingly however we ingest new (man-made) chemicals, in addition use more drugs of all kinds. Not only more but many new man made chemicals are stronger. Most of us cannot escape to a safe haven, free from toxins and pollutants. We have to eat contaminated food, breathe the air which is polluted, drink the water that is available even if chlorinated or contaminated. Clean water is very important. If you give your body enough pure water and fiber it will detox much easier and faster. But only clean water.
Neutralisation/transforming toxins:
The sea with their living organisms is the world best and most important cleaner. Seaweed and micro-organisms break down and transform most of these harmful substances. Ongoing studies showed that marine seaweeds processed toxins to a much less harmful form, and in a way that did not appear to harm the seaweed itself. The biochemistry involved, they say, is similar to that found in many land organisms, but more powerful and effective . The central role of the Sea/Ocean reconfirmed, there is no real surprising here.

Iodine content, function and key to optimal health.
Tradition has it that the products and food of the land should be combined with products of the sea like fish, shellfish and seaweed. It is the story about iodine, terrestrial plants contain only trace amounts of iodine (0.001 mg/gm), marine plants however have high concentrations of this nutrient (0.5-8.0 mg/gm) and should be used to compensate according to the human history. There is growing evidence that Americans would have better health and a lower incidence of cancer and fibrocystic disease of the breast if they consumed more iodine. A decrease in iodine intake coupled with an increased consumption of competing halogens, fluoride and bromide, has created an epidemic of iodine deficiencies in the West.
Iodine is a relatively rare element in the Earth's crust, but is concentrate in the oceans. It is the heaviest essential element known to be needed by all living organisms, but its rarity in many soils has led to many deficiency problems in the past with land animals and in human populations.Important because ease of attachment to organic compounds, gentle because it is a very heavy element (slow) having the right power/properties as commonly needed by living organisms. The transport of iodine and its organification (synthesis of organic compounds) can be blocked by Br- ions, chlorine and fluor due to a mutual competition between bromide, other halo ides and the iodide anions.
Therefore, bromine seen as having a zombifying potential. ( Retarding of the body/functions, ageing). The removal of bromide from tissue and organs will only take place when there is a access if iodine and the right pH. Mineral assimilation is affected by pH or minerals have different pH levels at which they can be assimilated into the body. Minerals on the lower end of the atomic scale can be assimilated in a wider pH range, and minerals higher up on the scale require a narrower pH range in order to be assimilated..
Iodine, which is high up on the atomic scale, requires near perfect pH for its assimilation into the body.. Iodism, an unpleasant brassy taste, runny nose, and acne-like skin lesions, is caused by the bromide that iodine extracts from the tissues.
Again: Cleaning and revitalising, the Sea/Ocean doing is doing it for us. What is important is that larger study show the effectiveness of seaweed with respect to detoxifying synthetic substances as well?
Organic and heavy metals were already well documented. There has been a widespread use of algae (algin, alginic acid) for the removal of harmful substances from animal and human body..
Use of kelp and fucus as detoxifiers.

It is important to use seaweed that is clean and has the capacity to absorb/transform toxins. Our seaweed is harvested at CoulaghBay, South West of Ireland. The Gulf Stream starting near Mexico will cross the Atlantic Ocean to reach Ireland Atlantic coast. During its crossing the water will clean and revitalise it self. By the time it reaches us, Coulagh Bay, it will be clean and rich in nutrients. It is one of the reasons why Irish seaweed has such a good reputation.
Mind and matter

When we look back in the past, for example 6000 years, the recorded history shows that people were able to get old in good health and lived several time the age of modern man. (For more info, health and ageing).
The impact of man-made substances like weed killers and pesticides.
(the Environmental Working Group)
Because they were designed and created by humans to kill living organisms (plants, weeds and insects that attack crops), and present a danger to man as he eats it. Many Pesticides are associated or accused of provoking nervous system problems, cancer, and hormonal deregulation. Therefore it’s important to avoid pesticides as far as possible, and above all the build-up/ accumulating them in the body.- Unfortunately fruit and vegetables are essential human foods, and guarantee a good health and preventing of a number of diseases. In general terms the benefits of a diet rich in fruit and vegetables better than the known risks/effect as result of pesticide exposure. That being said, by eating organic produce, we can avoid most pesticides.
- Washing all your fruit and vegetables before eating is important, systematically peeling is not the best solution because most of the vitamins and antioxidants are found in the skin. In addition, many fruits and vegetables store the pesticides in the flesh as well.
To the ten most polluted fruit and vegetables belong, blueberries, celery, grapes, nectarines,Peaches, Strawberries, Peppers, Potatoes and Spinach, as tested by EWG
People who are born healthy can grow very old and still remain in their health. Most of them will, however, die long before their potential Biological Old Age is reached. For these people detoxification of mind and spirit seen as a priority. Mind & spirit are regarded as important as the body. Thoughts, feelings, love, rests, family, meditation is as important as food. Living in a world free of synthetic toxins.
The use of milled seaweed we offer has several advantages, not only for detoxification but as source of trace-elements, vitamins, protein and fiber.
Recommended for use; between 1 and 2 gram/day.
Usage: Just replace salt with Seaweed; add it to bread, shakes, salads and vegetables. Drink more water. The changes are minor.
The cost approximately: US $ 0.005/day.
