VITAMINSEA Nori Dried Seaweed | Vegan Certified Wild North Atlantic Nori Laver | Perfect for Thyroid Support | Rich in Iodine, Calcium, Iron, Vitamin C, B Complex & More | Flakes (2 oz)

Description

For a plant with such a humble name and origin, seaweed boasts an abundant storehouse of healthful nutrients. Other than needing some sunlight, seaweeds are self-sufficient in their environment; they can absorb everything they need to sustain life directly from the seawater that surrounds them. Scientists know there is a secret to life in the sea, although they have never been able to identify this mysterious component. However, the earth's oceans not only make up nearly 70 percent of the planet's surface, they also absorb 70 percent of the sun's energy! And much of the solar (radiant) energy is absorbed by seaweeds. That's an amazing expanse of potential energy to be investigated as a vital source of nutrients!

Features

• WILD NORTH ATLANTIC NORI: A well balanced red seaweed, that were very excited to offer in whole leaf or flakes form (not in sheets). Of all Maine sea vegetables, Nori is the highest in vitamin C, E, B complex and protein. Also an excellent source of calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, manganese, copper, zinc, vitamins A and K.
• MILD & SALTY FLAVOR: Nori seaweed has a slightly chewy texture and a mild, salty taste with a hint of sweetness and umami. Dried Nori is thin, crispy, and has the most concentrated flavor. Once cooked, the flavor is milder, adding the perfect amount of salty, seaweedy flavor to soups, stews, or any dish that needs a nutritious flavor boost.
• FROM THE SEA TO YOUR PLATE: Experience the most nutrient dense ingredient that gives a flavor packed twist to any meal. Enjoy Nori whole leaf straight from the bag or toasted for a crunchy, flavorful snack. Its also perfect for soups and noodle dishes. Sprinkle flakes over your favorite salads, stir-frys, or fish dishes.
• UNIQUE HEALTH BENEFITS: Seaweed is low in fat, cholesterol free, packed with macronutrients, and rich in iodine, a critical nutrient for maintaining a healthy thyroid that is not found in many other foods. Known as a superfood, red seaweed is an amazing source of antioxidants and a popular addition to those following a vegan, vegetarian, kosher, or raw diet.
• SUSTAINABLY HARVESTED: Here at Vitamin Sea, we sustainably harvest our seaweed by hand from the cold pristine waters off the coast of Maine. We make sure that our harvesting methods are environmentally friendly, protect the seaweed and maintain it at optimal freshness. *This is a wild harvested product.
