Peru Purple Chondrus Crispus Sea Moss
Our wildcrafted Chondrus Crispus Sea Moss is sourced from the cold, pristine waters of Peru. Its distinctive purple color is due to anthocyanins, natural compounds that occur in many vibrant foods like red onions and purple cabbage. This sea moss is mineral-rich and offers a variety of essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, iron, B vitamins, amino acids, and antioxidants.
