You’ve Got Questions. We’ve Got Answers.

What Is Sea Moss?

Sea moss is a nutrient-rich algae that grows in the Caribbean Sea. It contains naturally occurring minerals such as iodine, magnesium, potassium, calcium, iron, and zinc, along with vitamins like A, C, E, and K.

What are the Benefits of Sea Moss?

Many people include sea moss in their routine for mineral support and enhanced vitality. Its unique properties make it easy to enjoy in meals, drinks or even beauty routines.

Where Does Your Sea Moss Come From?

We work specifically with St. Lucian sea moss, responsibly sourced and prepared with care. We’ve spent time in St. Lucia learning directly from harvesters and producers, which has shaped how we approach sourcing, preparation, and education. We believe knowing where your food comes from matters.

Why Does Sea Moss Come in Different Colours?

Sea moss is scientifically classified as a red algae, even though it naturally appears in gold, green, and purple.

These colour differences are influenced by:

  • Growing depth in the ocean

  • Sun exposure while growing

  • Drying methods after harvest

Nothing is added to change the colour. The differences are completely natural.

If you want a deeper explanation, we break this down in detail in our Sea Moss Colours Explained blog post.

What’s the Difference Between Sea Moss Gel and Dried Sea Moss?

Sea Moss Gel

  • Ready to use

  • Scoop and add to smoothies, tea, juice, soups, or recipes

  • Can also be used topically if desired

Dried Sea Moss

  • The raw form

  • You soak, rinse, and blend it at home to make gel

  • Preferred by some because it lasts longer in the pantry and offers more flexibility

We offer both so you can choose what best fits your lifestyle.

How Do I Use Sea Moss?

Sea moss is more versatile than many people expect. Common ways customers use it include:

  • In smoothies

  • In juices

  • Straight off the spoon

  • In soups or stews

  • In sauces or dressings

  • In baking or homemade snacks

Our products come with simple instructions so you always know how to prepare and use them properly.

How Much Sea Moss Should I Use?

Moderation is important. Most people consume 1 to 2 tablespoons of sea moss gel per day.

Sea moss naturally contains iodine, which is an essential mineral but, like anything, is best enjoyed in moderation. We recommend starting with a smaller amount and increasing slowly if needed.

Sea moss is not about excess. Consistency and balance matter more than quantity.

What Does Sea Moss Taste Like?

Sea moss has a mild, neutral taste.

  • Gold sea moss is the most subtle

  • Green, purple, and full spectrum have a more noticeable seaweed flavour

Taste preference often plays a role in choosing the right option for you.

How Long Does Sea Moss Last?

  • Sea Moss Gel: Up to 3 weeks refrigerated

  • Dried Sea Moss: Up to a year when stored in a cool, dry place

Because sea moss gel is perishable, we produce and ship fresh batches weekly to maintain quality.

Can Sea Moss Gel be Shipped?

Yes. We ship across North America using insulated packaging and ice packs to help maintain freshness during delivery.

Is Sea Moss Tested for Safety?

Yes. We take safety and quality seriously.

We also address common concerns, including heavy metals, in more detail in our Sea Moss and Heavy Metals blog post, where we explain sourcing, testing, and preparation practices.
