Seaweed also provides various B vitamins, including B12, which is often lacking in vegetarian diets.
Seaweed boasts an impressive mineral profile, containing calcium for strong bones, magnesium for energy production, and iron for oxygen transport in the blood. Additionally, it offers trace minerals like zinc and selenium, which are important for a healthy immune system.
The specific nutrient content varies depending on the type of seaweed, but many are rich in fiber, which supports healthy digestion, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are lacking in nearly everyones diet.

The Higgins family first discovered the benefits of Irish seaweed whilst talking with an old man. For many years, the old man had regularly collected seaweed from the North Atlantic coastline of Ireland.
The old man told them about the benefits that the kelp that he was collecting. Intrigued, they tried the seaweed soak he recommended and found it to be wonderful.
This led their family on a journey, firstly discovering the many types and uses for seaweed. The Higgins family decided to make a venture into the world of seaweed production. As a family business, Emerald Isle has been producing top-quality seaweed since 2013.
The Higgins family has carved a niche in the seaweed market by developing a traditional process of harvesting seaweed. Seaweed is hand-cut from below the low tide mark. This ensures only the best seaweed is harvested and ensures the preservation of the crop for future generations.
Their harvest is then hung by hand in a specially constructed sun-drying room. Although their methods are traditional, they have a full HACCP in place, and they are fully compliant and certified by the Irish Organic Farmers and Growers Association.
Emerald Isle Seaweed has their own dry room and all the seaweed products are made in one place. Their slow drying process ensures all the nutrients remain in the seaweed. They do not expose the seaweed to high temperatures, which would kill off many of the beneficial qualities of seaweed. This means their seaweed is nutrient-dense.
Every batch of their seaweed is tested for pesticides, unwanted contaminants, and nutrient content. The water quality is also tested.
