Seamoss is an excellent source of minerals. This almost tasteless seaweed is loaded with life-enhancing nutrients such as carbon, sulphur compounds, protein, iodine, bromine, beta-carotene, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc, pectin, b-vitamins, and vitamin c. Notably absent from a plant-based lifestyle, sulphur containing amino acids, such as taurine, are abundant in Purple Seamoss, much more than any other seaweed.
