Benefits of Purple Sea moss

Purple sea moss indicates the presence of beneficial antioxidants like ascorbic acid, tocopherols, polyphenolic compounds, and terpenoids that help to neutralize free radicals that lead to cell damage. Antioxidants are also linked to decreased inflammation in the body.

Another benefit to purple sea moss is that it is harder to grow in pools, so you can rest easy knowing your purple sea moss was likely wildcrafted. Wildcrafted sea mosses are harvested wild from the coasts and contain high amounts of nutrients when compared to pool grown sea mosses.  Purple sea moss is often collected off the shores of Jamaica and Caribbean islands like St. Lucia where it grows on rocks.

How to Use Purple Sea Moss

Purple sea moss is rich in antioxidants and other vital plant compounds. It makes an excellent source of nutrition for those seeking to add more to their health routine. Antioxidants work in the body to eliminate free radicals that can lead to cellular damage. This color of sea moss would be great for those concerned about cancer or those who wish to boost their immune systems. It would also be a good choice for those who need more well-rounded nutrition in their diet.

Benefits of Gold Sea moss

Gold sea moss is a rich source of phytonutrients like vitamins A, B, C, D, E and K.  It also contains iron, calcium, fiber, iodine, zinc, magnesium, and sulfur. The phytonutrients in gold sea moss are important for proper cellular communication in the body.

This color of sea moss is one of the most common colors you can buy because it is more readily available due to the fact that it grows year round.  Of all the colors of sea moss available, gold sea moss may have the most mild taste and scent.
