How Much Sea Moss Should I Consume Daily?

Sea moss aka Irish moss (or carrageen moss) is a sea vegetable that grows all year long in various tide pools and inlets. It's a species of red algae and typically found within warm waters, across the rocky areas of the Atlantic coast of North America and Europe. This incredible seaweed is known for its numerous health benefits and is widely used in the cosmetic and food industry.

Like other seaweeds, there are countless benefits of sea moss and that is the reason behind the increasing popularity of this amazing superfood. It is believed that sea moss carries about 92 of the most important minerals that our bodies need. Here's a list of a few minerals and vitamins that this magical creation of nature contains: 

  • Amino acids
  • Zinc
  • Vitamin A & C
  • Iodine
  • Iron
  • Calcium & Magnesium
  • Antioxidants
  • Fiber
  • Omega-3 fatty acids

You Can Consume Sea Moss in a Variety of Ways

Sea moss is considered one of the most essential sources and minerals as it's commonly found in the aisle of supplements. It's also sold in the raw state as well as in powder, gel, gummies, or the same old, traditional oral capsules. Companies also sell it as a combination; mixing sea moss with bladderwrack or turmeric etc., to boost immunity and help ease other conditions like joint health and thyroid. People see sea moss as something that benefits the entire well-being of the human body.

Apart from that, sea moss has also been commercially used in the food industry for as long as one could remember. Naturally being a thickening agent, it is used in non-dairy milk, cottage cheese, and ice creams. 

And finally, it's also highly beneficial for the skin. No wonder why this edible sea plant is admired all over the globe.

How Much to Take Daily?

The recommended amount of sea moss that you can take daily, of course, varies from person to person, as we all have different body weights, ages, heights, genders, and other medical conditions.

So if you are talking about taking sea moss in general, it's important not to overdo it. The recommended quantity is to take 1-2 tablespoons a day. The same is the case with consuming sea moss gel. However, you may take up to ¼ cup of it in gel form. Similarly, if you are looking for the perfect quantity to take the sea moss supplements (tinctures), it should be around 2-3 droppers a day. In case of knowing exactly how much you consume on the daily basis, feel free to consult a professional.
