Seaweed Powder - Raw Material Botanical Name: Ascophyllum nodosum 100 Mesh A vegetable garden beneath the sea Ancient Greeks spread seaweed for fertilizer, Cretans used it for dye, the Romans for animal feed, and since Roman times in Britain, the Welsh put it in their bread, being Latin for water plant. It had been chewed like tobacco in Iceland, burned to ashes for its extracts in Norway, and distilled to make brandy in Britain. The French enjoy it for dessert and in Japan it is eaten raw, boiled and dried. The finest quality seaweed: Different kind of seaweeds are harvested on every continent.
