Super Sea Veg® Benefits One of the Earth's greatest treasures lies beneath the seas and lakes of the world. Research has proven that the waters of our oceans contain some of the richest known sources of mineral elements. The moving forces of nature, through rain, erosion and rivers, has brought all the valuable vitamins of the earth to the sea floor. These vast sources of nutrition may become much more important than any of us now realize. Land degradation, pollution and over farming has had a drastic affect on the soil. Most commonly, it is from the soil that we derive our minerals and vitamins from the fruits and vegetables we eat. If this food grown on land can no longer give us all the nutrients we require to protect our bodies from sickness and disease, we must turn to the rich vegetation of the sea, seaweed. Sea Vegetation, the keystone of the food chain, offers us the nutrients we can no longer gain from land grown crops. Used to assist in weight loss Used medicinally to treat enlarged thyroid glands Believed to help lower cholesterol Used to maintain healthy skin and hair Inhibits uptake of heavy metals Removes toxins and heavy metals This seaweed works like a sponge, absorbing from the water almost all the nutrients, minerals and trace elements that are essential to life. Kelp was first used medicinally to treat enlarged thyroid glands. Physicians didn't know why kelp was effective, until it was discovered that it was exceptionally rich in iodine and that enlarged thyroids were due to an iodine deficiency. Because iodine worked by stimulating the thyroid gland that controls the metabolism, it was noted that those who took iodine lost weight more easily. From these observations, kelp was then used to assist in weight loss. It has been suggested that kelp's positive effects in assisting metabolism may help in lowering cholesterol. This versatile seaweed is also widely used to maintain healthy skin and hair. Kelp's most dramatic application is its ability to neutralize heavy metal pollution and radiation in the body. Studies have shown that the active ingredient in kelp, sodium alginate, inhibits the uptake of heavy metals and Radiostrontium 90 (nuclear fallout) and also removes these toxins and heavy metals.
