Dive into the world of medicinal seaweeds with this complete guide to the distinctive flavors and healing properties of these important marine plants.

Author Tasha Greenwood combines their expertise in marine biology and clinical herbalism in this richly layered and fascinating reference, which includes place-based observation, botanical profiles, and recipes that tap into the medicinal and culinary uses of these nutrient-dense marine plants. Readers will learn about the unique characteristics of 14 North American seaweeds, from well-known species such as Laminaria (kelp) and Pyropia (nori), to lesser-known algae such as Mazaella and Cystoseira. Profiles of seaweed farmers and ocean stewards highlight this plant’s potential as a sustainable, nutrient-dense food of the future, and encourages readers to cultivate relationships with seaweed, whether through food, medicine, or ecological observation.

Easy-to-follow step-by-step seaweed herbal remedies and recipes include:
  • Irish moss cough syrup
  • Soothing seaweed face mask
  • Seaweed fire cider to boost immunity
  • Anti-inflammatory turmeric and bladderwrack tea
  • Iron-boosting sea lettuce syrup
  • Immune-boosting elderberry gummies with seaweed derived agar
  • And many more!
