Benefits of Sea KelpFights Iodine Deficiency
Iodine is essential for our body as its deficiency can cause low thyroid levels, brain damage in children, and damage to reproductive functioning. If during pregnancy a woman is suffering from low iodine levels, it can cause severe cognitive and mental damage to the fetus.

This study was 8 weeks long and the participants were given 0 mg, 1 mg, and 2 mg fucoxanthin, a compound found in kelp. The patients who received 1 mg and 2 mg kelp were found to have lower blood sugar levels when compared to the placebo group (0 mg).
Reduces Inflammation
Inflammation is our body’s response to start the healing process from an injury. While inflammation protects our body from the attack of foreign elements, but it can also become a reason for many chronic diseases. Sometimes, our body can trigger inflammation to attack its own tissues such as in the case of autoimmune diseases. In such scenarios, reducing inflammation becomes necessary.
A male mice model was fed brown seaweed for 16 weeks to reduce the effects of inflammation in the body. At the end of the study, it was found that seaweed could, in fact, decrease inflammation in the mice model.
