Sea Moss Gel FAQ

What is sea moss?

Sea moss is a red seaweed (a sea vegetable) traditionally eaten across the Caribbean. We use wildcrafted sea moss hand-harvested in St. Lucia. It's vegan and gluten-free.

What does raw sea moss gel taste like?

Our OG gel has a clean, neutral taste because we soak and blend it only with distilled water. Our fruit gels taste like the fruit: soursop, mango, guava, Concord grape and more.

What's the texture?

OG gel is thick and jelly-like. Fruit-infused gels are closer to apple sauce. Texture varies a little from batch to batch because sea moss is a natural, seasonal harvest.

How much sea moss gel should I have per day?

Most people enjoy 1 to 2 tablespoons a day. Because sea moss is naturally high in iodine, more isn't better, and it's best to start small.

How long does sea moss gel last?

There are no preservatives, so keep it refrigerated. OG gel is best within 3 to 4 weeks and fruit gels within about 2 weeks. Signs it has turned: a sour or different smell, or a film or specks of mould on top.

Can I freeze sea moss gel?

Yes, for up to 6 months. Don't freeze the glass jar, which can crack. Portion the gel into silicone ice cube trays instead.

What's the difference between gold, purple and green sea moss?

They're different colours of sea moss. Gold is sun-dried and has the mildest taste. Purple grows deeper in the water and tastes stronger. Green has a fresh, grassy taste. All three make a great gel.

How many servings are in a jar?

A 500 ml jar holds about 32 tablespoons. A 1 L jar holds about 64 tablespoons.

How is your sea moss prepared?

We rinse and soak wildcrafted sea moss in distilled water to remove sand and debris, blend it with distilled water (and real fruit for flavoured gels), and pour it into glass jars that are hand-washed and sterilized.

Is sea moss safe for everyone?

Sea moss is naturally high in iodine. Check with your healthcare provider before using it if you have a thyroid condition or take thyroid medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or before giving it to children.

Do you deliver?

Yes. GTA delivery is $10, Ottawa, Montréal and Québec City are $15, the rest of Canada is $21 to $25, and orders of $150 or more ship free. Local pickup is also available. Every order is made fresh, so allow up to one week for preparation.
