Living just a stones throw from Central London, England, I have to confess that interactions with seaweed hasn’t been a regular occurrence within my non-coastal upbringing or day to day life… until I discovered Doctor Seaweed at the Om Yoga Show.
Seaweed is in fact a nutritional powerhouse, and DoctorSeaweed’s Weed & Wonderful supplement range is a great way to reap the many natural health and beauty benefits of this amazing marine plant. So let’s take a deep dive into why it’s making waves within the health and beauty industry!
Something that really resonates with me, as a vegan, is meeting individuals who are conscious about their health and the health of our planet alike. Plant-based nutrition therefore goes hand in hand with eco-conscious sustainability and the ethos of this brand is respectfully rooted in nature and backed by science. Discovering the Doctor Seaweed stand at a wellness exhibition made me realise how very little is said, or commonly known, about the benefits of this incredible plant.

With coughs and sneezes aplenty this winter, I’ve stocked up on their range of pure Scottish and organic seaweed supplements to keep my health and immune system in tip top shape. Here’s a peak at what’s in my box:
- Pure Organic Seaweed: This supplement is a great way to get a daily dose of the essential nutrients found in seaweed. It can help to support thyroid health, metabolism, immunity, and overall health.

Throughout the year, and especially in the colder months, having a strong and resilient immune system is incredibly important to prevent illness and disease.
