I’ve recently been getting into seaweed over the last few years and thought it would be cool to share some of the benefits on why it’s a super food! When I started eating seaweed it was out of curiosity, but after a few years I feel like I know more about it and how it affects not only the body but the environment and planet. Seaweed is a marine algae that has been cultivated for thousands of years for its abundance in nutrients. It also supplies planet earth with most of its oxygen, creates marine coral reef and is a food source for humans, animals and sea creatures.

Seaweed, or macroalgae, refers to thousands of species of macroscopic, multicellular, marine algae. The term includes some types of Rhodophyta (red), Phaeophyta (brown) and Chlorophyta (green) macroalgae. Seaweed species such as kelps provide essential nursery habitat for fisheries and other marine species and thus protect food sources; other species, such as planktonic algae, play a vital role in capturing carbon, producing up to 50% of Earth’s oxygen.
