Sea Weed - The Secret Weapon for Immunity that we all need in the Pandemic

Sea moss or sea weed is a a great addition to your daily food intake, particularly in times like these (COVID-19 pandemic) where we all got to know the importance of healthy immune systems. The invisible enemy, i.e., the virus, has consumed over 4 million lives. In fact, as we speak a new variant (Delta) is rampant in many parts of the world infecting people left, right and centre. It’s therefore all the more important to boost our immune system with diet and supplements, and more importantly, get vaccinated.

Speaking of immunity, it plays a vital role in your body. Your immune system comprises an army of fighter cells that keep viruses and infections at bay. Sea moss plays a curious role in boosting immunity.

 There are a lot of pros to consuming sea moss, especially in today's uncertain world. However, here's something that we can be sure about; 

Sea moss can help us make our immune systems strong. 

That’s right!

Sea moss has antioxidants and other disease-protecting properties

Research shows that the natural bioactive compounds, such as fuconoids and carrageenans have antioxidant and virus-protecting properties. In simple words, these compounds decrease chances of a virus infection.

What makes viruses different from seasonal flu and other infectious agents is their tendency to spread easily. Both viruses and bacteria are microbes but viruses are way too small. You can say in the microbial world, bacteria are giraffes and viruses are gold fish. A large virus is smaller than the smallest bacterium. A sea moss supplement boosts your immunity against these microbes. Here is how: 

  • It contains minerals, vitamins and anti-oxidants that boost white blood cells (T-killer cells)
  • It improves liver function and speeds up metabolism and regulates blood flow
  • Potassium in sea weed improves muscle functioning and strength
  • It improves glucose metabolism and insulin efficiency
  • It reduces inflammation in the heart, liver and pancreas

Moving further, there are a lot of things as well that make sea moss an excellent supplement for us all. You may find them in various colors including green, bluish-green, red, and brown but what's for sure is that they're all good and have their unique properties that help us in different ways.

Takeaway

Finding the right kind of sea moss is important if you want to benefit from its amazing properties. You must make sure that the type of sea moss you are planning to buy suits you and your requirements and you should only buy them from a reputable store or place.

After that, thanks to the internet, you can find tons of different and exciting ways of consuming sea moss. You can either consume it fresh or eat them dried. You can also cook the seaweed (like stews and soups) and you can also use it as a powdered supplement (as it's easily available). As if that wasn't enough, you can add some of it to your drinks like smoothies and even desserts. Consuming it in the most exciting of ways is now easier than ever.

If you think you don’t need to consume it then you should know that there’s no harm in giving it a try because most of us are now convinced that we must have strong immune systems. So consuming sea moss would be just great and who knows, your bodies might be missing something like this that's full of minerals and vitamins. 

It is said that sea moss contains about 92 of the most essential nutrients that our bodies need. So it’s high time we start thinking about making sea moss a key element of our daily intake because now we all know how important good health is.
