Wild Gourmet Fine Kelp of New Zealand 100g

"Iodine is an essential nutrient for humans. Although only required in very small amounts, it is an important constituent of thyroid hormones. These hormones maintain the body’s metabolic state and support normal growth and development in children. As iodine is essential for normal brain development, it is particularly important that the unborn baby (fetus) and young children have adequate intakes."

Sprinkle this gourmet condiment on fish, vegetables and eggs or stir into your favourite soups.

Five great reasons to buy our Kelp

Nutrient Rich - Giant Kelp contains alginates and over 70 trace minerals, including naturally high levels of iodine and potassium: much more than iodised salt and many other kelps.

Bio-available - Plant nutrients, including the iodine found in Kelp, are more easily absorbed by the body than synthetic forms of iodine. Your body needs iodine to maintain a healthy thyroid.

Purifying - Our Kelp is sourced from clean and remote seas. Clean Kelp binds with heavy metals in the intestines, eliminating them from the body. Conversely, Kelp harvested from seas around countries with chronic industrial pollution may actually introduce heavy metals into the body.

Salt Substitute - Kelp is very low in sodium which means that in addition to being a delicious gourmet condiment, it’s a perfect alternative to salt.

Some serving suggestions :

• Sprinkle on roasted vegetables to enhance the taste.

• A spoonful of Kelp Pepper in crumbs and savoury crumbles adds great flavour.

• Add a teaspoon to any savoury bread recipe.

• Mix with unsalted butter to give some gourmet to your spread.

• Sprinkle it onto salad or pasta just before serving.

• Add a pinch to scrambled eggs and taste the difference.
