What is Wakame?
Wakame, or Undaria pinnatifida, is a type of seaweed sustainably harvested from the pristine, icy waters around Tasmania. This deep-green sea vegetable is renowned for its impressive nutrient profile, making it a staple in Japanese cuisine, often used in salads and miso soup.

Health Benefits of Wakame
-
Skin Regeneration: Wakame aids in regenerating skin cells, promoting a healthier, more youthful appearance.
-
Elasticity Promotion: Enhances skin elasticity, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Weight Control: The compound fucoxanthin found in wakame may help reduce fat accumulation and stimulate fat oxidation, making it beneficial for weight management.
-
Anti-Cancer Properties: Rich in iodine, wakame has been linked to lower breast cancer rates in Japan. Studies suggest that iodine can suppress and potentially kill mammary tumors, indicating a role in cancer prevention.
-
Heart Health: Fucoxanthin also encourages the liver to produce more DHA, an Omega-3 fatty acid that helps reduce bad cholesterol and promote heart health.
Wakame is a versatile and nutrient-dense addition to any diet, particularly for those looking to support skin health, manage weight, and promote overall well-being. Its rich antioxidant content and potential anti-cancer properties make it a valuable wholefood supplement.
