Nova Scotia Dulse
The Purple Seaweed

Low functioning thyroid or under-active thyroid and
Nova Scotia Dulse.*

There are two primary components in an under-active-thyroid, and both of them are directly related.
The first component is stress and the second is a nutritional deficiency of organic iodine. Stress robs the body of iodine.

Nova Scotia Dulse is rich in the organic food form of iodine:
A lack of organic iodine can result in the following symptoms:

1. over weight problems
2. fatigue
3. anger
4. irritability
5. depression
6. developing phobias or manias
7. dry hair
8. dry skin
9. dry mouth
10. cracked nails
11. constipation
12. mental and emotional burnout
13. low mental and physical energy levels
14. a lack of desire to interact with people or participate in life.

Borderline cases of low thyroid often go untreated because tested levels are based on averages not individuals. This borderline condition can add to a number of reoccurring or unresponsive health problems such as:

1. liver disease
2. hormone imbalances
3. allergies
4. nutrient deficiencies
5. parasitic infestations
6. high blood pressure
7. arteriosclerosis.

Nova Scotia Dulse contains not only organic iodine but an impressive array of vital minerals, trace elements and electrolytes. There is a distinct advantage in getting your minerals from a whole food source like Nova Scotia Dulse.

The whole food source of organic iodine, found in dulse, is extremely important to your body. Nearly all of the iodine in our body is used by the thyroid gland (which regulates body metabolism) to make thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone controls or strongly influences every chemical reaction in the human body. Many people, especially in the U.S.A., are suffering from a sluggish thyroid often brought on by stress and a lack of good food based organic iodine. Good sources of organic iodine are difficult to find because you cook the foods that have iodine in them. Iodine is completely lost in cooking because it is soluble. Iodine is found abundantly in the ocean, and one of the best natural, organic, raw food iodine sources is the purple seaweed Nova Scotia Dulse. With a severe loss of iodine, your body can produce goiters (swollen thyroid glands). Research by the U.S.D.A. found that 1.0 to 2.0 milligrams of iodine is needed daily. High physical and emotional stress can increase that figure dramatically. Inorganic iodine in the drinking water or iodized table salt should not be depended on as a source of iodine. Nova Scotia Dulse, kelp and raw sea fish are some of the best food sources of natural organic iodine.

Detailed Information on Dulse and some of its components

As the purple seaweed Nova Scotia Dulse grows, it converts the unusable inorganic minerals from seawater into usable organic mineral salts that combine with amino acids. These minerals are readily available to the human body.
Nova Scotia Dulse is abundant in natural organic forms of the minerals: potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron, iodine, flourine, zinc, manganese, copper, chromium and variety of other trace elements. In addition, Nova Scotia Dulse contains 22% protein and food forms of vitamins B3(niacin), B1(Thiamine), vitamins A, C, E, B2, B6 and B12 (so necessary for vegans and vegetarians). Including dulse in your diet is a great way of getting these essential organic minerals, vitamins, trace elements and electrolytes. The purple seaweed dulse is one of the richest sources of assimilable organic minerals and trace mineral elements on Earth. Nova Scotia Dulse is a safe whole food product that has been used as a staple for centuries.

Unlike typical store bought "vitamin and mineral supplements", Nova Scotia Dulse contains many natural, organic, easily assimilable minerals, vitamins, trace elements and electrolytes. Please view our chart below. Abundant energy and excellent health begin with proper nutrition.

The purple seaweed dulse is very high in organic iron.

The organic form of iron, found in Nova Scotia Dulse, attracts oxygen from the air. If you have enough iron in the blood coursing through your lungs, you draw oxygen out of the air; otherwise you don't get enough oxygen and you can't breathe. Iron will keep you from being anemic. Iron must be organic coming from a whole food source like dulse for proper assimilation. Cheap inorganic forms of iron, found in many mineral supplements, can not be utilized by your body and may actually be harmful. Because anemia is much more common in women than in men, many nutritionist suggest that, to combat anemia, the intake of iron for women during child-bearing years should be between 17 and 20 milligrams daily. When a person gets tired or short of breath, it is often an indication of a lack of iron in the body. Iron is also needed for proper metabolism; the activity of the body is very dependent upon iron. One of the best natural organic iron sources is the purple seaweed Nova Scotia Dulse.

Current research has suggested that dulse may help reverse hardening of the arteries; reduce high blood pressure; regress and prevent tumors; even remove toxic metals from our bodies by transforming them into harmless salts that are easily eliminated.*

Nova Scotia Dulse contains an important balance of natural sodium and mineral salts, and dulse is one of the highest known organic food sources of natural potassium. Without these natural electrolytes every system in your body is subject to disease.

The sodium - potassium balance found in foods like Nova Scotia Dulse have so many functions in the body, it is incredible. Potassium is active as an electrolyte in the muscles, controlling the acid / alkaline balance in the body, supporting the heart and the nerve synapses as well as neutralizing acidic wastes, regulating osmotic pressure and performing a host of other tasks. "Natural sodium helps us to have elasticity, limberness and youthfulness in the tissues. It is necessary for normal chemical balance, not only in the walls of the stomach but also in the walls of the intestine. It is necessary to the regulation of the fluid content and to normal flora in the intestinal tract, and is necessary for good bowel evacuation. A natural sodium balance greatly affects the fluid balance throughout the body. Calcium, with its quality of harshness, can make tissues immobile: the joints may become rigid unless there is a sufficient sodium present to keep the calcium in solution. Such disorders as neuritis, neuralgia, rheumatism and arthritis follow. Many doctors say that waste acids are responsible for such conditions, but actually these acids would not be present if there was an adequate natural sodium / potassium reserve to neutralize them". (Dr. Bernard Jensen)

The purple seaweed dulse helps to purify and strengthen the bloodstream by alkalizing it if it is too acidic and reducing any excess stores of fat and mucus. Dulse strengthen the intestines, digestive system, liver, pancreas, and sexual organs; enhances mental clarity and awareness; and promotes beautiful skin and hair.*

A small amount of Nova Scotia Dulse will provide more than 100% of the daily amount of Vitamin B6 and 66% of Vitamin B12, a day's supply of "organic" iron and natural fluorine.

Fluorine is called the "resistance" element. If you do not have enough fluorine, you can not resist disease. Fluorine is a very unstable gas. Cooking destroys fluorine in foods. This element is needed to build hardness in our teeth and hardness in our bones. It is also called the beauty element. One of the best natural organic fluorine sources is Nova Scotia Dulse. It is known to be essential to the body, especially for the hardness of tooth enamel and bones. University of Rochester scientists found that the occurrence of cavities is proportionate to the amount of fluorine in the enamel. The fluoride in drinking water is inorganic and has in the past caused brown discolored teeth if oversupplied even minutely. Food fluorine doesn't have any adverse effects. There is a world of difference between the organic minerals found in Nova Scotia Dulse and the inorganic minerals currently being introduced into our food and water supply.
