Japanese Kelp

The action of kelp (seaweed) is primarily due to the presence of organic iodine compounds in it.

Benefits of iodine

Iodine is essential for:

• thyroid gland function;
  participates in the formation of thyroxine hormone;
• prevents the development of endemic goiter;
• improves the absorption of protein, phosphorus, calcium and iron;
• activates a number of enzymes;
• iodine reduces blood viscosity and lowers blood pressure.

With iodine deficiency is observed lethargy, drowsiness, apathy.

Kelp for vascular health

• helps to reduce the content of cholesterol in the blood plasma;
• active components of seaweed activate the enzyme systems of the person, which also contributes to the purification of blood vessels;
• seaweed has hormone-like substances of antisclerotic action;
  prevents increased blood clotting and the formation of blood clots. With its help it is possible to reduce the prothrombin index by 10-13 percent. Vitamins B6, B12, C and nicotinic acid play an important role in its reduction.

Iodine seaweed has a regulating effect on the menstrual cycle, ovaries and thyroid gland, reduces pathological manifestations of preclimax. It has been experimentally proved that the use of seaweed is accompanied by the reverse development of hypothyroidism, and its action is much more effective compared to inorganic iodine preparations.

Seaweed polysaccharides have hydrophilicity and adsorption ability, absorb various endo- and exogenous toxins from the intestine, have a mild loosening effect similar to the physiological loosening effect of fruits and vegetables.

The positive effect of seaweed in inflammatory diseases of the light-receiving apparatus of the eye (increase in visual acuity, expansion of the field of vision and partial restoration of color perception) was noted.

The results of experimental studies have shown that kelp can reduce the absorption and accumulation of strontium and cesium radionuclides in the body.
