10 Benefits Of Eating Kelp
Kelp Benefit #5: Rich in Iron
As mentioned above, kelp is rich in vitamins and minerals such as iodine, vitamin A, vitamin K, calcium, and magnesium. In addition to this, the algae is a good source of iron.
Iron is essential in ensuring proper blood and oxygen flow and in preventing anemia. Just one tablespoon of dried kelp provides a notable amount of iron. Also, because the algae have a notable amount of calcium as well, this will help increase the bioavailability of the iron. This is because vitamin C increases iron absorption. Thus, coupled together, the duo is a power couple.
