At the end of the day, audience members were asked submit their questions to expert speakers. Below are some of the more popular questions submitted to Eileen Fuentes, Director of the Women’s Wellness Series and blogger for The Speach.
Question: What is the best way to incorporate seaweed into meals? Where can seaweed be purchased?
Answer: Sea vegetables, or what I like to call “treasures from the sea,” are among the healthiest foods available. Incorporating seaweed is easy, and most importantly, it won’t alter the flavors and textures of your favorite foods. You can find it at your local health food supermarket such as Fairway or Whole Foods, in the macrobiotic aisle. Surprisingly, they are not expensive. You can also order them online from Maine Coast Sea Vegetables in bulk or individually. I like using the Sea Seasonings – Triple Blend Flakes Shaker over EVERYTHING!
Below is a short guide to incorporating sea vegetables into your meals as well as their related health benefits:
1. Kombu is referred to as the “king of the sea” and is great at eliminating toxins from the body, plus it’s loaded with iodine, vitamins, minerals, calcium, and potassium. It can be added to most soups, stocks, broths and stews. When added to beans, it simultaneously shortens cooking times while aiding healthy digestion… and enhances its flavor.
