Oceanic Herbs ,
Mixture of Seaweed herbs.
Your lifestyle and
dietary choices make an enormous difference to your lifespan and to your
quality of life in later years. A good diet will help to keep healthy. All it
takes is a little work in the ‘here and now’ to keep you in a good shape for
later.
Why seaweed? Because of the fact that
the beginning of all life started at the oceans (water), our common origin, and
by the fact that seawater has almost the same proportion of minerals as the
human blood.
Seaweed
too is rich in essential minerals, such as, iodine and iron, the important
trace elements, which can make a difference in Human health. These trace
elements include zinc, boron, chromium, selenium and tin, to name a few.
Moreover, seaweed contains a high level of vitamins, particularly
vitamin B12, a vital nutritional element usually found only in meat.
Therefore it is recommended as a substitute for meat products in vegetarian
diets.
Optimum nutrition is the medicine of the future.
WHY?
**The optimum nutritional micro-environment of every
cell in the body is vital to achieve or
restore optimal health; deficiencies in this environment cause the body to be
more susceptible to diseases and degeneration.
**To make access to seaweed and the use of it
easy, we will dry and mill the seaweed
for you. After that you can use it like you use a herb or spice. Just sprinkle
it on vegetables, meat or fish while preparing it.
**Alternatively, use it to enhance the quality of salads, soups, milkshakes, corn flakes
etc. or use it for savoury dishes. It will give your cooking a special natural flavour and
many health benefits.
**You do
not need large quantities because we assume that you will add it only to
compensate for possible food deficiencies; trace elements and organic minerals
and vitamins.

Seaweed herbal set.
Different kinds of
seaweed, differ greatly in taste and flavour. Taste can vary from
tangy, suggestive of iodine or the seashore to an almost nutty flavour with
textures ranging from firm to succulent.
Our herbal set contains the four most important types
of algues/seaweeds.
Green rockweed, Kelp, Nori and Dulse
When
you are the lucky one and you have the time to experiment and you like cooking,
this herbal set is the answer. Preparing a good meal is a time and knowledge
consuming business.
Why is this?
Because, the optimum nutrition is not just about
preventing or reversing disease states, it is more than that, it is about
living optimally. The kind of food you eat, the physical, mental and emotional
stress you experience, the environment in which you live and work, your
inherited genetics, the amount of exercise you have, and many other factors
play a role... Whether you are young or old!
If you have a desk job, or work as a labourer, surf
the net or be active in sport etc., you need time to prepare and cook a good
dinner… not only tasty, but above all healthy. Most people do not
realise the importance and love involved here. The importance, your well-being
and not only now, but also in your future.
Most people(woman) will work nowadays and , they do not have a lot of the time to think about preparing a meal; no
time to look for the best available vegetables on the market. Read a book about
it and experiment. Tired after a day at work, a job waiting at home including
preparing the dinner is really too much. For this reason they will end up with
a pre-prepared meal or even a fast meal!
For this reason we offer you our seaweed herbal
mixture; different seaweed herbs in one package. No need to think about.
Just add a little of it to your meal... ready!

General
information/properties:
Most seaweed's contain some B
vitamins and beta carotene, the plant form of Vitamin A, but the amount varies according to the type of seaweed
and how it is served.
Beta-carotene is
an anti-oxidant and may help to prevent degenerative diseases such as cancer.
Unusual for a plant: ---- some seaweed contains vitamin B12!
The Japanese have
been harvesting vegetables from the ocean for centuries. They eat seaweed
in sufficiently large amounts to benefit from its concentrated mineral content.
It is estimated that up to 10 % of their food is derived from the sea. The
incidence of cancers and obesity is low. Statistically the lowest in the
developed world.
All seaweed herbs and spices are
Organically-grown, natural, unprocessed food. We will dry and mill it for easy
use.
Kelp
Most known type of seaweed; Being used for
centuries as a herb and its properties well documented. Not only as a herb but
also as medicine.
Kelp also contains minerals like copper
and iron for healthy blood, magnesium for the proper functioning of muscles and
nerves, calcium for healthy bones, potassium for the maintenance of the body's
cells and balance of fluids and zinc
for the body's immune system.
Kelp
helps to strengthen the liver, lungs and thyroid, assisting to prevent the
build-up of cellulite; helps clear pollution from the body and is a natural
pain reliever.
If you want help with weight loss,
respiratory ailments and even senility, to get stronger bones, teeth, nails and
hair, then consider using kelp (seaweed).

Unli
ke
all the other sea vegetables that are collected wild, the Japanese version is a
cultivated one.
For a long time the Gaelic people have
been making flat breads from a mixture of flour and nori, a simple way to keep
the bread fresh longer. A few
restaurants are still serving laver-bread.
Its most prominent use is the wrapping for
sushi and led to its cultivation in Japan. It can be cut into strips, lightly
toasted and used as a garnish as well. Rich in vitamin A and proteins.

Green Rockweed:
Green rockweed grows in the shallow waters at the edge
of the ocean. In the world of the herbs you could compare it with pepper or
sambal. A very strong taste due to a high content of alginic acid. Do not use
it therefore in large quantities.
Green Rockweed gives a fresh taste to many dishes. Its
cousin, Brown Rockweed, and one of the more slow growing seaweeds. Most seaweeds
are fast growers and are sometimes called the lungs of the world. That is not
the case with Rockweed. Furthermore it
is an important habitat for small fish and other creatures living at the edge
of land and sea. Still abundant, but it might need watching its development in
the future!

Price: Euro 1.75 /container excluding postal charges.
Sea lettuce or Ulva Lactuca:
This lovely green vegetable keeps impressing us, only
one or two cell layers thick.
You can look through it. Mostly it is fresh eaten or
after preserving it in salt.
We do dry and mill it but it takes a lot of effort to
produce any large quantities. It contains a lot of salt after drying! It will
bleach easily in the sun turning it useless.
Best served locally or shipped by plane. (Costly)

Irish moss:
Demulcent, emollient, nutritive. It was being used as medicine to cure cold. The
elderly people discovered it’s jellying properties: Carrageen was born.
As a popular remedy turned into a jelly for pulmonary
complaints and kidney and bladder affections. Normally combined with cocoa. The
decoction was made by steeping 1/2 OZ. of the Moss in cold water for 15 minutes
and then boiling it in 3 pints of milk or water for about 10 or 15 minutes.
After straining and seasoning with liquorice, lemon or cinnamon and sweetened
to taste.
Irish moss varies in
appearance and more than thousand different shapes are known.
Like dulse it is left
on a net on the beach after harvesting. They would leave it there for a
considerable time and let the sun bleach it. Dulse however is harvested as soon
as possible and kept free of the rain. The old Irish people would take it into
a shed or even their own home for this purpose.
(degrades
much faster than Irish moss).

Salt replacement and seasoning.
As a salt producing
source, it is used by humanity since his earliest existence. The recorded history goes as far back as 1.000 BC in China.
Some cultures consume
seaweed fresh, others would first dry it to preserve, or use it for
seasoning.
Seaweed as herbal
salt is a deliciously natural product; grown organically without the use of
pesticides or chemicals. The potassium content, organic minerals and trace
elements are considerably higher than in any other salt on the market. It is
similar to our herbs and spices. We do grind it however much smaller to make it
more effective while using it.
When seaweed contacts
water, it will increase in size up to five times its original volume. We only
use fine milled seaweeds for use as a salt replacement By making it smaller,
its active surface will increase substantially. However, its density will
increase also. A container will hold only 50 gram.
The seaweeds we recommend are the Seaweed
mix-s, kelp-s and green rockweed-s for this purpose. Dulse could also be used,
because it is very salty.
Seaweed
Seasoning:
Again one of the first things man discovered in the
past was the effect seaweed did have on the fermenting/seasoning of food.
Fermentation is making use of yeast and bacteria to make food more digestible
and more nutritious. Even more important, it helps to preserve food. (Storage
possible)
For example: cheese, sauerkraut, yoghurt, tempeh, etc.
Beverages such as: wine, beer, cider, ale, vinegar,
kombucha.
In similar ways it can improve your digestion. The
conversion of fat and sugar etc. into usable parts. When food is not digested
properly, it still can get into your bloodstream. Instead of recognizing these
cells as food, your body might view them as toxins and the immune system will
react. A similar reaction is possible when you will overload, meaning eating
too much of the same food too often…. one of the problems of modern man! Most
people do under-estimate the complexity of our digestion system.
--We do not eat enough fermented foods; many foods are
just lacking of vital trace-elements and vitamins needed.
--We
do eat too much of the same. The variation of different foods on offer it
decreasing rapidly making it more difficult to vary.

Seaweed has a positive effect on the health of your digestive system.
There are many ways in which your digestion system
might get compromised. The use of medicines. Illness like allergies, high blood
pressure, heart disease, stroke and auto-immune diseases. Food poisoning, yeast
infections, etc.

these discomforts and helps getting you the full benefit of the food you

you…. more important…. use it regularly! Just replace a part of your table salt
by it.

for nutritional purpose and not as medicine. If you feel ill you should go and
see your doctor. We talking about prevention not healing.
