10 Benefits of Seaweed
Benefit #4: Supports Gut Health
Recently, there has been excessive research on the link between gut health and overall health. Though research is still insufficient, many scientists agree that gut health is important to overall physical and mental wellbeing.
It is vital to have “good bacteria” in the gut and keep them in a healthy balance with bad bacteria. Fiber is essential for good gut health because it can serve as a food source for the good bacteria that live there. Seaweed is rich in fiber and polysaccharides, both of which support the growth of good gut bacteria.
