We've been looking to bring in some Sea Moss Gel for a while, but couldn't find one we liked that was reasonably priced (some are extremely expensive). A few weeks ago we decided to make a trip out to Southtown Health Foods in Chicago to talk to our friend Katie who owns the store along with her father to see if she had any recommendations for us. She introduced us to a woman named Tracee who is local that has her own Sea Moss business. Katie said she really liked the brand and that she's been taking it and has been very happy with it.
We connected with that local company and now have pure Sea Moss Gel at Pass Health Foods! Liz and I have started taking it on Katie's recommendation and I like it- it doesn't have much of a taste other than a fresh lemony flavor. You can take it straight off the spoon (which is what I do) or mix it in a smoothie (that's how Liz takes it). People even use it on their face as a skin mask.
Sea moss is naturally very nutrient dense in trace minerals- it's actually said to contain 92 different minerals. It's often used to help with thyroid and immune health, as well as helping digestion and enhancing the stomach lining. It's basically a natural superfood that helps replenish vitamins and minerals not generally found in our regular diets. Some people even use it for weight loss since they say it's fiber composition can help with making you feel fuller, helping you to eat less. It's also used to help with inflammation, energy, and mood.
There are lots of flavored sea moss gels, but we wanted to just get a pure one without any extra junk in it, and we're really happy to be able to carry it. Sea moss is in our fridge near the probiotics, and should stay refrigerated to maintain freshness and potency. We have it in both 8oz. and 16oz. sizes.
Stop in and see us at 7228 W. College Drive in Palos Heights!
