Prevention of disease is better than cure.

One way natural health can help people is by preventing illness and disease using natural products. Natural cures are being discovered daily. Seaweed is one that has many therapeutic benefits to health.

Seaweed is a superfood and there are more than 2,500 varieties. They are a good source of protein and dietary fibre. They also contain up to 20 times the vitamin and mineral content of vegetables that grow on the land.

Seaweed contains vitamin B12, a lack of this vitamin can cause fatigue, depression, numbness and tingling. Seaweed is also a rich source of alginic acid, which helps the body rid of toxic heavy metals such as lead. In addition it contains compounds that may help to prevent cancer.

Nori, for example, which is a variety of seaweed, is rich in the anti-oxidant beta-carotene which like all anti-oxidants, can neutralize harmful molecules known as free radicals before they cause the DNA damage that may eventually lead to malignant tumours.

Seaweed is very popular in Asia, this may help to explain why cancer rates are just a fraction of what they are here in the UK.

Seaweed is full of salt. If you need to limit your sodium intake, due to high blood pressure, for example. Then soak the leaves first.
