A very important enriched natural marine algae (Ascophyllum nodosum). Harvested in its live state, dehydrated to a specific moisture content by sun-drying and mechanical dehydration. It is then ground to specific particle sizes. This superb Kelp powder extract is very rich in minerals, trace metals, amino acids and carbohydrates, easily absorbed as it is a very fine powder. Shown in several studies to increase weight and reduce susceptibility to disease.
Appearance: greenish-brown very fine free flowing pure powder, characteristic odor of algae
