What Are Sea Vegetables?
Sea vegetables are the various forms of sea algae and weeds without stems or leaves that live in the sea or brackish water. They have been appreciated for their many beneficial nutrients for centuries and were used in ancient China and Egypt, and are mentioned in Ayurvedic medicinal texts.
Nutritional Benefits from the Sea
Sea vegetables have naturally occurring minerals, which vary based on the variety of the plant. Many are rich in iodine, iron, and other essential vitamins, making them some of nature’s most nutritious foods!

Spirulina is a nutrient-rich blue-green algae that grows in warm lakes. It may be one of the oldest plants on Earth and was most likely used as a food source by ancient peoples in their everyday diets long ago.
