Is Sea Moss Good for Cancer?

The question of whether one can consume sea moss in the presence of various medical conditions is highly crucial. The following article will tell you all you need to know about sea moss and whether or not you can take it during chemotherapy.

Can Sea Moss Benefit Cancer Patients?

Let's start from the top and get to know what sea moss is. 

Sea moss is an edible seaweed that is usually grown and found in the warm waters of the rocky oceans. Also known as Irish moss, it usually grows throughout the year and is easily found underwater in areas along the Atlantic coast of North America and Europe. This spectacular form of algae is highly useful as it offers plenty of benefits, in various aspects of life. It's found in a lot of different colors.

Similar to other kinds of seaweeds, sea moss is popular for its long list of potential health benefits. It's no surprise as sea moss contains various vitamins. The list includes vitamin A and C, zinc, iron, iodine, calcium, amino acids, antioxidants, and other necessary minerals that are responsible for our overall well-being. 

Looking at the amazing history of seaweed blows us away. The Egyptians around 2640 BC used it to treat breast cancer. Likewise, the traditional Chinese used it as a medicine to treat tumors. All this tells us a lot about this incredible sea vegetable. 

Researchers believe that sea moss may prove to be vital for treating cancer patients. According to scientists, there are various compounds and chemicals that this particular seaweed contains. And soon will they be able to ‘design’ such medicines that may precisely target the cancer spots.

While referring to a marine-organism extract, "briostatin." Dr. John Marshall of Georgetown University Medical Center said ‘When used with traditional chemotherapies, briosatin can help customize treatments by modulating chemical signals within a cancerous cell to make the cell more nearly normal

He added, "We are moving to a time where we are no longer going to treat cancer patients based on just what kind of cancer they have," Marshall said. "We won't treat all colon cancer patients the same. We won't treat all lung patients the same.

"Where we are moving to is taking an individual's cancer and measuring particular characteristics of it and saying, 'OK, you've got this wrong, this wrong and this wrong in your tumor and, therefore, I am going to treat you with Drug X, Drug Y, and Drug Z because that is tailored to your cancer.'

More studies have found that brown seaweeds have the potential to fight cancer as it contains fucoxanthin. Similarly, red seaweed also contains quite a few cancer-reducing properties.

In addition to that, in Asian cultures like China, Japan, and Korea, sea moss has always been a part of the diet. In those regions, the consumption of it is associated with reducing a lot of severe medical conditions including cancer. So adding a bit of sea moss to our diets may expand the chances that our bodies will fight against various types of cancer.

Despite that, we are not making any medical claims. All we know is that sea moss is healthy and has a lot to offer.
