Sea Moss: A Unique Plant-Based Protein Source

The gelatinous texture and the many potential health benefits associated with sea moss make it a popular choice in any supermarket or online store; that is a given. It is undoubtedly a favorite of many; the latest to join this fan club are the seekers of plant-based protein sources! Sea moss is a treasure trove enriched with vitamins and minerals. But what often gets overlooked is that it can serve as a valuable protein alternative source. In this brief, we will look at sea moss from an angle that some of you might not have explored in depth already. Plenty of interesting stuff coming up!


Proteins Aren’t An Animal Thing Only!

Before we go any further, let us weed out a few ambiguities that may confuse some of you. First, proteins are not found in just animals; there are many plants out there with a very decent protein content. Take the example of soy protein that features in many of the products you consume daily. Like that, sea moss also has a very promising outlook regarding the protein content it offers. Today, we know that, on average, sea moss contains as much as 15-20% protein. Here, we are talking about the dry weight. That is more than a respectable resource, we tell you! 


Sea Moss Protein Is Complete Protein

Proteins are made of amino acids; consider them the building blocks for these macromolecules. Now, amino acids are typically divided into two categories; these are essential and non-essential amino acids. Our body needs at least nine essential amino acids; these are the amino acids our body cannot produce independently. Proteins found in the sea moss are complete because they furnish all the required amino acids. Here, we are talking about amino acids such as histidine, isoleucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine and tryptophan. Another massive plus you get with sea moss as a protein source is its very low-fat content. If you are searching for a lean diet option, sea moss is a perfect pick for you.


We mentioned amino acids earlier; one of these amino acids is arginine. Arginine’s role in various physiological functions in the human body is crucial. From cell division to wound healing, from endocrine regulation to vasodilatory effects, arginine is considered an important amino acid, which sea moss furnishes in a decent quantity.


Final Thoughts

Sea moss can serve as a more than adequate source of proteins. The only question that remains to be answered is: where will you get premium quality sea moss? And the answer is Herbal Vineyards, your number one source for premium quality sea moss and sea moss-derived products!
