Introducing our Wild Seaweed — a blend of five, diverse, nutrient-rich types of seaweed. It’s sustainably harvested and hand-cut from the Pentland Firth, a rugged, remote straight in Northern Scotland with some of the highest water exchanges in the world. This cool, pristine water provides the perfect conditions for clean, nutrient-dense seaweeds to meet your natural iodine and calcium needs.*
Rosita® Wild Seaweed is a true superfood that provides a natural source of chelated iodine, minerals, vitamins, carotenoids, flavonoids, omega-3s, enzymes and polyphenols.*
Its rainbow-like blend of green, red and brown algae offers more micronutrients than products with a single type of seaweed (that often have additives) — providing a comprehensive, real food nutritional profile.
Scientific studies show that the types of wild seaweed in this blend may support thyroid function and hormone production, a healthy metabolism, detoxification, skin and digestive health and the maintenance of healthy psychological and cognitive function.*
And, there are no additives, common allergens or preservatives. This vegan supplement is also free of lactose, gluten, wheat, dairy, GMOs and irradiation.
Our sustainable, gentle process
Our certified, award-winning process does not use or disturb the sea life or local wildlife. Here’s how we harvest and craft the wild seaweed:
Our harvesters venture out in all-weather to handpick the seaweed during their peak growing periods, when the plants are in optimal condition and rich in nutrients.
Unlike the standard machine-harvesting method, individual plants are cut so that enough remains for regrowth and reproduction. We work in small teams and access the foreshore on foot. We also follow the most stringent ecological regulations to ensure the local ecosystem thrives. The seaweed is then washed and slowly air-dried at low temperatures to preserve its enzymes and delicate phytochemicals. We also use smaller milling sizes to increase bioavailability.
Rosita® Wild Seaweed is Certified Organic, Scottish Natural Heritage Approved and has received the PETA Farming Award.*
