Kelp is a nutritive Pacific seaweed that is very high in minerals (over
30) including iodine.
The minerals provided nutrients required for body-regulating enzymes.
Iodine is important for thyroid disorders (both overactive and underactive)
and obesity. Iodine feeds the thyroid which controls metabolism.
Thus kelp is used for weight loss and as a supplement for pregnancy. Kelp
is believed to strengthen the heart and brain. Kelp contain a viscous fiber
called algin.
Algin absorbs most nutrients as well as toxins from the digestive tract,
This reduces both caloric intake and toxins entering the circulatory system.
Alginic acid binds and removes radioactive strontium 90 from the body.
Note: Atlantic kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) is also sold as "Kelp".
The properties of both kelps seem to be similar.
