Certified Organic Dried Wakame Leaf
Wakame is a kelp or seaweed and can be used in soups, stews and salads.
Sea Power™ Wakame Leaf is sourced from the incredibly pristine, icy cold waters flowing around Tasmania – and Certified by the most recognised Australian leader in Organics!
Where is your seaweed sourced? Japanese imports were actually banned from Australia and NZ in the 80's due to dangerously high levels of heavy metals (lead & cadmium).
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) is a good source of -
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin B1
- Vitamin B2
- Vitamin B3
- Vitamin B5
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin E
- Vitamin K
- folate
- soluble/insoluble fibre,
and has among the very highest nutrient-to-calorie ratios from a vegetarian source of anti-inflammatory Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acid (EPA). It makes sense to supplement your diet with this nutrient rich seaweed.
Sea vegetables help alkalise our bodies from the over-acidity of the modern diet and contain 10 to 20 times MORE bioavailable minerals & vitamins than land vegetables, with no fat and low calories.
The salty taste is not just salt but a balanced, chelated combination of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, iron & trace minerals. High levels of potassium in the blood are associated with a reduced risk of high blood pressure – and all seaweeds have extraordinary levels of this mineral.
