At Granny P’s, every jar of sea moss gel and every gummy we craft tells a story—not just of our family’s five-generation recipe but of the incredible science behind this powerful superfood. You’ve likely heard us rave about the 90+ vitamins and minerals in sea moss, but what if we told you there’s growing research to back up its remarkable benefits?
Sea moss, or Chondrus crispus, has been celebrated for centuries, from the coastal shores of St. Lucia to Irish households using it as a staple remedy. But what does modern science say about this oceanic treasure? Let’s dive in.
Sea Moss and Gut Health: A Natural Prebiotic
Did you know that sea moss is a prebiotic powerhouse? A 2015 study published in BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies found that sea moss contains compounds like polysaccharides that help feed the good bacteria in your gut. Healthy gut bacteria are linked to improved digestion, better mood, and a stronger immune system.
When I read about this research, I was reminded of my grandmother, the inspiration behind Granny P’s. She would always tell us, “A strong body begins with a strong belly.” Little did she know, science would later confirm her wisdom!
Packed with Iodine for Thyroid Support
Sea moss is naturally rich in iodine, an essential mineral for thyroid health. Your thyroid is like the engine of your body, regulating everything from your metabolism to energy levels. Unlike synthetic supplements, sea moss provides iodine in a bioavailable form that your body can absorb naturally.
This connection to thyroid health has always been personal to me. My grandmother often used sea moss as a natural remedy for fatigue and low energy—a practice that inspired our commitment to providing real, tested sea moss products to our customers.
A Natural Skin Saviour
If glowing skin is your goal, sea moss has you covered. According to research published in the Journal of Applied Phycology, sea moss contains bioactive compounds that promote skin hydration, reduce inflammation, and support collagen production. That’s why so many people use sea moss not just as a dietary supplement but as a skincare hack, adding it to face masks and creams.
For me, the real beauty of sea moss is its ability to heal from the inside out. When I started my own wellness journey, I noticed how adding sea moss to my daily routine didn’t just boost my energy—it transformed my skin. That’s when I knew this wasn’t just a family recipe; it was a legacy of health.
Why Granny P’s Sea Moss Stands Out
While there are plenty of sea moss products on the market, not all are created equal. At Granny P’s, we ensure every batch is tested for quality and purity, working with Fanshawe College Laboratories right here in Canada. This gives you the confidence that our products are free of contaminants and packed with the nutrients your body needs.
Unlike other brands, our gummies are made with real sea moss—not extracts. That means you’re getting all the natural goodness without any shortcuts. Plus, our environmentally friendly sourcing practices ensure that our wild-crafted sea moss is as kind to the planet as it is to your body.
Sea Moss as a Holistic Health Movement
Research aside, sea moss represents something bigger than a trend. For me, it’s a bridge between the past and the future—a way to honor my grandmother’s legacy while bringing her wisdom to today’s health-conscious world. It’s about creating products that not only work but also make you feel connected to something real, something rooted in tradition and science.

If you’ve been curious about sea moss, there’s no better time to start than now. Whether you choose our gel for your morning smoothies or our gummies for an easy, on-the-go boost, you’re tapping into the incredible potential of this superfood.
