The wakame in our seaweed salad is cultivated in wild, pristine seas off the coast of South Korea, and is certified safe.

Like wild fish and cultured shellfish, our naturally ocean-grown wakame cannot be certified organic under current USDA rules, even though it's raised without synthetic inputs.

Wakame is one of the healthiest foods on the planet, packed with vitamin A, minerals, organic iodine, the healthful omega-3 fat known as EPA, and a beneficial antioxidant called fucoxanthin.

Health benefits

In Traditional Chinese medicine, wakame is prized for “blood purification,” intestinal, skin and hair health, immune support, and overall wellness.

Wakame has been called “women’s seaweed,” because it’s loaded with iron and bone-building calcium, magnesium and potassium.

Chinese medical tradition holds that wakame possesses diuretic (anti-bloating) properties.

Preliminary research in rodents suggests that wakame may support weight control and metabolic health … effects attributed to its uncommon carotenoid-class antioxidant, fucoxanthin.

Finally, wakame ranks among the richest sources of fucoidan … a sulfated polysaccharide that’s shown promise in important aspects of immune-system health.

"Delicious!" Cris on 01/14/2021 03:37 Review: The seaweed salad is fantastic! It's very refreshing. At first I thought I might just like it with Asian food, but I like it with sandwiches or soup, too. Quite versatile. I like the sesame in it and the texture is really intriguing--not exactly crunchy, but maybe more like al dente pasta. I already made a repeat order!

"Very yummy" Jamie on 11/25/2020 12:19 Review: This salad is delicious. Tastes phenomenal with VC grilled salmon. The balance is great, very clean, not too sweet, just yummy. Forget making your own. I do hope the price does not go up:)
