Discover the Super Seaweed: A Plant-Based Calcium Boost for the Lactose Intolerant

If you haven't heard of 'super seaweed', the wakame seaweed is here to change that.

A recent study from the University of London has found that wakame is not just another superfood with numerous nutritional benefits, but also a natural calcium powerhouse. It's a perfect alternative for those who cannot consume lactose due to intolerance.

Calcium, as we know, is crucial for healthy bones, muscles, and nerves—and wakame is loaded with it. But that's not all. The researchers proved that not only is wakame packed with calcium, but it also enhances the body's ability to absorb it efficiently, thereby increasing its effectiveness.

"This discovery is a significant breakthrough for lactose-intolerant individuals," explains one of the lead researchers. "These individuals can now enjoy a high-quality plant-based calcium source without relying on dairy products. In addition to calcium, wakame contains other vital vitamins like Vitamin K and Vitamin C, which aid calcium absorption and boost overall health."

However, it's essential to note that wakame does present some challenges when it comes to Jewish dietary laws, as even after thorough cleaning, it has been found to contain high levels of insect impurities.

So, how can one consume it? Through certified kosher dietary supplements, which are available at select pharmacy chains.
