How Seaweed Salad Benefits you!

So how exactly does eating seaweed salad benefit your health?
Well, first, the main ingredient -- seaweed -- has been proven to help you lose weight. It does this by reducing fat accumulation.


Another ingredient -- garlic -- has long been used in traditional medicines to cure and prevent illness. Modern Western science research on garlic shows that it primarly helps with illnesses by regularting your immune system. An article publishied in the Journal of the National Medical Association explains that garlic boosts your immune system by helping your body eliminate dangerous free radicals and heavy-metal intoxication.


Ginger, another seaweed salad staple, has also been used in traditional remedies. The University of Maryland Medical Center found that ginger is used to relieve mild upset stomach and is given to patients who are nauseated or vomiting.

Last but not least, an unexpected ingredient in seaweed salad -- apple -- contains high concentrations of healthy chemicals called phytochemicals. They may decrease the risks of developing chronic diseases such as cancer, heart diseases, and diabetes, according to a review paper published by The Department of Food Science at Cornell University. The phytochemicals have been found to act as strong antioxidants -- removing dangerous free radicals from your body -- and as cancer cell inhibitors -- stopping the growth of cancer cells.

So now that you know seaweed salad not only tastes good, but it burns fat, boosts your immune system, aids in digestion, and reduces your risk of chronic diseases, won't you try some of our delicious, all natural seaweed salad?
