CHARACTERISTICS

SEA LETTUCE (ULVA LACTUCA) is a green seaweed belonging to the Chlorophyceae class. Among algae, it is one of the best known species, is the richest in chlorophyll and is the closest to terrestrial plants.

NUTRITIONAL VALUES

ORGANIC SEA LETTUCE IN FLACKES is a seaweed particularly rich in calcium (30 times more than milk). SEA LETTUCE draws an incomparable wealth of bioavailable minerals and trace elements from the marine environment. It is particularly rich in Iron, containing on average 15 times more than egg yolk and spinach. It contains Copper, Zinc, Phosphorus, Sulphur, Selenium, Manganese.

SEA LETTUCE is an invaluable source of Carotenoids, Chlorophyll, Polysaccharides, Vitamins including Vitamin B12, Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids, it also contains Histidine (essential amino acid for children).

PROPERTIES

Its main use in nutrition is related to the intake of Calcium and Magnesium. Vegetables generally contain Calcium, but some (spinach, rhubarb) also contain a lot of Oxalic Acid, which forms, with Calcium, Calcium Oxalate, which is insoluble and non-absorbable. The same phenomenon occurs with chocolate.

For the body’s health, it is necessary to take in more Calcium than one normally does. And, as many people are unable to extract it from milk and cheese in which it is abundant, but fixed in a very stable way (Calcium Caseinate), SEA LETTUCE algae is an optimal way to supplement the diet with Calcium and Magnesium.
