| Product Introduction |
States and on the northern Atlantic coast and Baltic coast of Europe. The main stem of bladderwrack, known as the thallus, is used medicinally. The thallus has tough, air-filled pods or bladders to help the algae float¡ªthus the name bladderwrack. Although bladderwrack is sometimes called kelp, that name is not specific to this species and should be avoided. |
| Physiological Functions | Raw Bladderwrack seaweed is a rich source of mucilage, algin, mannitol, beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, iodine, bromine, potassium as well as volatile oils. In addition, bladderwrack extract may have health benefits on a variety of conditions including those of the skin. Organic raw Bladderwrack powder like other sea vegetables is virtually fat-free, low calorie and one of the richest sources of minerals in the vegetable kingdom. Bladderwrack seaweed contains high amounts of calcium and phosphorous and is extremely high in magnesium, iron, iodine and sodium. This amazing sea vegetable is also a source of fucoidan, a polysaccharidic known to scavenge heavy metals and radioisotopes throughout the body. Raw organic bladderwrack seaweed (Fucus Vesiculosus) is a brown seaweed and a great natural source of Iodine / Potassium iodide (KI). Iodine is a chemical element essential for the production of thyroid hormones that regulate growth and metabolism. Diets deficient in iodine may increase risk of retarded brain development in children (cretinism), mental slowness, high cholesterol, lethargy, fatigue, depression, weight gain, and goiter: a swelling of the thyroid gland in the neck. The natural Potassium iodide (KI) / Iodine from bladderwrack is absorbed by your body more slowly and safely than chemical or synthetic iodine. Further bladderwrack may helps promote an alkaline pH balance within the body and also boosts the immune system possibly due to its naturally high organic mineral content. Iodine / Potassium iodide (KI), administered orally immediately after exposure to certain types of radiation, may be used to protect the thyroid from ingested radioactive iodine. But Potassium iodide (KI) would only be effective if the radiation contains radioactive iodine. Raw Bladderwrack extract may also be excellent for heavy metal detoxification. It is a primary source of the polysaccharide known as alginic acid. Scientific researchers, including a team led by Dr. Tanaka at McGill University, have demonstrated that alginic acid binds with any heavy metals found in the intestines, renders them indigestible, and causes them to be eliminated. Heavy metals such as barium, cadmium, lead, mercury, zinc, and even radioactive strontium, that may be present in the intestines will not be absorbed by the body when alginic acid is present. What's more, Dr. Tanaka's research has shown that the alginic acid in sea vegetables actually helps bind and draw out any similar toxins that are already stored in our bodies, thus "lowering the body's burden." |
