About Product
Bladderwrack powder is derived from brown seaweed that has been used for centuries to treat many common issues.
It is believed to have originated in the North and Baltic Sea regions, where it is still collected and used today.
Bladderwrack powder has a long history of tonic usage, especially in traditional Chinese principles.
In recent years, bladderwrack powder has become increasingly popular in the Western world for its various applications.
Some research suggests that Bladderwrack may contain the following constituents:
Iodine, Magnesium, Minerals, Trace Metals, Phenolics, Phloroglucinol, Fucpphorethols, Phlorotannins, Alginic Acid, Fucoidan, Lipids, and Sulphuryl-, Sulphonyl- and Phosphonyl-Glycosyl Ester Diglycerides.

Suggested Use: Take 1/4 teaspoon 1 - 3 times daily. Sprinkle on entrees, soups, salads, or add to smoothies or teas.
