For centuries, coastal communities have harvested a distinctive seaweed called Bladderwrack to treat everything from goiter to joint pain. While "seaweed" might not sound like a medicine, Bladderwrack is one of the most nutrient-dense plants on Earth.
It is best known as the original source of Iodine, discovered in 1811. Today, it is experiencing a renaissance as a natural remedy for those struggling with slow metabolism.
Why Your Metabolism Needs Seaweed
Can a sea plant really help you lose weight? By providing iodine, Bladderwrack stimulates the thyroid to burn more calories as heat. Second, there is Fucoxanthin. It suppresses appetite naturally, making caloric deficits easier to maintain.
Restoring Thyroid Function
They are intrinsically linked. Iodine deficiency is a global epidemic. This restores energy levels and mental clarity in those with sub-clinical hypothyroidism.
Safety, Dosage, and Quality Control
Quality matters more with seaweed than almost any other supplement. Bladderwrack absorbs minerals from the water, but it can also absorb heavy metals read more like arsenic if harvested from polluted waters. Remedy's Nutrition® ensures that our Bladderwrack is harvested from clean, tested waters.
Who should be careful? People with Hyperthyroidism (Graves' Disease) should avoid Bladderwrack as extra iodine can worsen the condition. Pregnant women should also be cautious.
