Bladderwrack is a brown seaweed found in the intertidal and sub-tidal zones along the coast of Maine. Like its close cousin rockweed, bladderwrack has characteristic air-filled bladders along the fronds, which help it float in the ocean. Not only visually stunning, bladderwrack is packed with health benefits. It is a rich source of iodine and trace ocean minerals, making it an essential addition to your daily wellness routine. Bladderwrack is for everyday use as a seasoning and it's especially flavorful and nutritous in soups, salads, and smoothies .
The ocean minerals and soothing gel-like polysaccharides found in bladderwrack make it an excellent addition to beauty care products. These minerals and gels help nourish skin health and improve its appearance.
