Sea Moss as a Natural Source of Vegan Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Sea moss has gained immense popularity in recent years, courtesy of its many nutrients and minerals. Among these highly valuable elements in sea moss is the omega-3 fatty acid. Omega-3 fatty acid is one of the most valuable types of lipids, which are found naturally in our bodies. Diets rich in Omega-3 fatty acids are mostly from animal sources, but sea moss is an exceptional plant source that has excited the vegan community!


The Omega-3 Fatty Acid Story!

By nature, omega-3 fatty acids are essential polyunsaturated fats. Their role in maintaining overall health is a crucial one. Best known for their cardiovascular benefits, omega-3 fatty acids have been studied extensively by researchers. Their effect on reducing inflammation, improving blood vessel function and lowering the risk of heart disease is established with evidence. There are two major types of omega-3 fatty acids. These are eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. These two main omega-3 fatty acids are found in fatty fish and algae. But individuals who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet cannot obtain these crucial fatty acids from animal sources.


Enter Sea Moss!

This is where sea moss’s role becomes so crucial. This type of red seaweed, which grows mostly along the coasts of Europe and North America, has a considerable omega-3 fatty acid content. Hence, it is automatically a plant-based alternative for those who seek vegan sources of this essential nutrient. Sea moss does not contain these two main fatty acids in their direct or final form. However, it does contain its precursor form, called alpha-linolenic acid. Our body can convert alpha-linolenic acid into docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid. Of course, the conversion process is influenced by certain factors as well, but sea moss still can contribute significantly to the overall omega-3 fatty acid intake. Alpha-linolenic acid has been found to positively affect inflammation, cognitive function and cardiovascular health. It also plays a critical role in maintaining healthy cell membranes and supporting our central nervous system. Furthermore, the compound has been considered of vital importance concerning the endocrinal system.


Final Thoughts

So, you can see why incorporating sea moss into the diet will be a game changer for vegans and vegetarians. They can meet their omega-3 fatty acid needs deliciously because sea moss can be consumed not only as sea moss gel but as a major ingredient in smoothies’ soups, and even desserts. So, the only question that is left for you is to decide where you are going to get your sea moss products if you are a vegetarian who’s desirous of increasing their omega-3 fatty acid intake.
