Why Sea Vegetables?

Have you ever noticed how young and beautiful the people of Japan are? I surely have and it was only right that I explored why. It’s not really difficult to find out why people get certain results; look at what they think and do on a consistent basis.

If you examine the Japanese diet you will notice sea vegetables are a staple part of their diet. After careful consideration and investigation, I found that many other icons of health and beauty, such as Donna Gates of Body Ecology, recommend these miraculous foods. Seeing the results, it took me no time to give these foods a try and I suggest you do too!

With a little bit of research, it turns out that these plant foods are unbelievably mineral-rich. And minerals are the beauty nutrients. Without minerals, we do not properly absorb other important nutrients that grow our hair and reproduce new skin cells. Not to mention, they are surprisingly versatile in recipes and taste delicious. However, being honest, it’s their vast health and beauty benefits that keep me coming back for more. Here are just a few of them:

Benefits of sea vegetables:

• Prevent aging
• Promote the growth of healthy hair
• Maintain youthful elasticity in skin
• Promote healthy cholesterol levels
• Resolve mineral deficiencies
• Detoxify the body of heavy metals, pollutants and carcinogens
• Inhibit the overgrowth of pathogenic viruses, yeast and bacteria
• Balance thyroid function
• Lubricate the digestive tract for healthy elimination

The Many Different Sea Vegetables

If you’ve ever eaten sushi, then you’ve had seaweed. The blackish green wrap that surrounds the fish and vegetables is known as nori. This is a common sea vegetable as it has a very neutral taste with a pleasant crunch. If this is the only sea vegetable you’ve ever tasted then you may be interested to discover a variety of other sea vegetables that are equally as delicious and nutritious.

Easy Seaweed Salad

Here is a seaweed salad I quickly put together. This salad is very popular in coastal Asia.

Here are 12 other popular sea vegetables worth trying:

01. Arame

This brown seaweed is part of the kelp family. It is almost sweet in taste and is a great place to start if you are new to eating sea vegetables. It is usually packaged in shredded form and has a crispy texture when dry. To eat, simply soak in water for a few minutes and it will expand like chia seed does. You can just toss it into a salad and voila, you have a truly beautiful salad with a protein- and mineral-rich addition.

Spicy Cucumber Avocado Onion Salad

 

 

02. Kombu

This is a popular ingredient in miso soup if you’ve ever had it. It’s also a great addition to just about any soup. Simply take a small strip and add it to your homemade soups, and you have some 70+ trace minerals now all working to reverse aging in your body! As a great anti-aging tip, I suggest making kombu a kitchen staple as you would sea salt.

03. Wakame

Closely related to kombu, this variety is said to have metabolic properties. Perhaps seaweed is part of the secret to Japan’s low rates of obesity?

Spring Rolls With Wakame

 

These spring rolls are extremely easy to make, and they will do as a starter, a lunch, or a main dish.

04. Hijiki

Probably one of the most sacred of seaweeds, this black seaweed makes a great natural beauty aid. This very black sea veggie looks scary at first, as most people do not eat many black foods. However, you should embrace this food. It is the phenomenal amount of minerals that give it its black pigment. It is said in Traditional Chinese Medicine that this food is responsible for the dark, beautiful hair of Japanese folk. Want lush locks? Try this small-cut seaweed in your next salad. Or my personal favorite, soak it and mix it with slow-cooked carrots.

05. Dulse

This is my personal favorite. Dulse makes such a great snack, as it needs no cooking or soaking. It comes ready to eat with a chewy, salty, and slightly sweet taste. It’s also jam-packed with protein and iron, making it wonderful for thicker, shinier hair.

Garden and Sea Pâté

This is a simple almond-based pâté that is versatile, simple, and has loads of flavor.

06. Agar

Agar is my secret ingredient for creating mind-blowingly delicious sugar-free desserts. It is a great vegetarian alternative to gelatin as it has the same consistency when soaked and provides ample amounts of collagen. Irish moss is another gelatin alternative. However, this can be used in savory dishes as well for a thick gravy base. Careful, as too much of it has mild laxative properties. However, this makes it wonderful for those prone to constipation. This is a great beauty food as constipation leads to toxicity causing skin problems like acne.

Almost Raw Panna Cotta Cream

The agar is the vegan version of gelatin, made out of red algae. It is derived by boiling the algae and then making it to a powder, so it is not raw. The good thing about it though is that it has no taste and no smell, the perfect thickening agent for any dessert, soup, or meal.

07. Kelp

Perhaps the most popular brown seaweed, kelp is actually an algae. It grows in the more nutrient-rich ocean waters, which gives it its vitamins, minerals, and iodine content. Kelp is thought to be especially beneficial for the prostate, pancreas, and digestive system, all of which (when they are in great shape) contribute to youthfulness and splendor. Many of the beauty-related health issues such as dry skin, brittle nails, and hair loss are related to the thyroid. Those with thyroid disorders such as hypothyroid, Hashimoto’s (an autoimmune issue) and hyperthyroid could greatly benefit from this sea vegetable. Your thyroid needs minerals, especially the ones found in sea vegetables. Eating kelp is a much safer way to get minerals and iodine than most supplements, as it’s difficult to overdose with food sources.

Chili Thai Kelp Noodles

Kelp noodles are a sea vegetable in the form of an easy-to-eat raw noodle. Made of only kelp, sodium alginate (sodium salt extracted from brown seaweed), and water, kelp noodles are fat-free, gluten-free, and very low in carbohydrates and calories.

Super Easy Nori Hand Rolls With Avocado Dressing

This is super easy to make, and it’s especially good for when it’s hot and you don’t feel like cooking.
