Bladderwrack Powder

Bladderwrack is a seaweed found on the coasts of the North Sea, the western Baltic Sea, and the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

Bladderwrack has a funny name, but it doesn't really match all that it can do. It's actually algae that gets its name from the small air-filled pockets, or bladders, that actually help it to float. But its name doesn’t have much to do with its actual uses for the body.

No one who suffers from heartburn enjoys it. In fact, the pain and burning some of the most miserable feelings you can experience. Bladderwrack can come to the rescue. If you suffer from heartburn or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), bladderwrack can help to relieve your symptoms. You’ll be able to eat your favorite foods without having to suffer later.

If your thyroid is running a little slow, bladderwrack can also help to support normal function. You may want to talk with your healthcare provider to make sure you don’t have a negative interaction with medication you’re already taking. You don’t want to speed things up too much at once. It’s possible that bladderwrack may enhance your metabolism and help you to lose weight more rapidly as well.

The major ingredient in bladderwrack is iodine. While most people in the world have iodized salt that prevents problems, bladderwrack can be a good alternative to that. Iodine is essential in helping the thyroid to work properly. In fact, people with iodine deficiencies often have a thyroid disease called goiter. Of course, avoid bladderwrack if you're allergic to iodine.

Although its name may not be particularly appetizing, bladderwrack is actually quite tasty. The plant can be used fresh, but its flavor is greatly enhanced when dried.
