What is Jamaican Sea Moss?
My natural, wild Jamaican Sea Moss grows in the breathtaking turquoise sea, right off Jamaica. Known in German-speaking countries as cartilage tank or red algae. In short, the Jamaican Sea Moss is a species of sea algae.
It comes in different colors from green-yellow, purple-brown, red, black and yellow. Sea Moss grows wild in the rocky terrain of the Atlantic Ocean, primarily off North America and Europe.
Drying influences the final color that ends up in our glass. So when sea moss is freshly harvested and dried in the sun, it loses most of its intense color.
However, that does not mean that the color indicates which varieties contain more nutrients. All varieties come into our jars with a similar macronutrient and micronutrient content.
Here's how you can use it
Due to the rich content of polysaccharides in the cell walls, Jamaican Sea Moss gels when it comes into contact with water and acts as an emulsifier and thickener. You can therefore use Sea Moss as a healthy plant-based alternative to gelatine for making puddings, creams and dressings.
The high collagen content, which is similar in structure to our body's own collagen. It is absorbed particularly quickly and well by our skin and can therefore reduce wrinkles when used regularly.

What's in it for me vs what's in it
Due to the high proportion of natural minerals (92 out of 102), Jamaican Sea Moss is a must for your healthy and balanced diet. Although minerals are essential for life, they are not produced independently by our body. Therefore, we have to record them daily. Their job is not only to build bones, teeth, hormones and blood cells, but also to transmit vital stimuli to the muscles and brain. At the same time, the immune system is strengthened and the cells are protected from free radicals. In addition, the high iron content ensures an optimal oxygen supply to the body, which gives us more energy and performance in everyday life. It is also a natural aphrodisiac.
