Love it! Thanks Dr Berg. Some extra info for viewers: 1. 2 raw Brazil nuts have full daily supply of Selenium. When you eat with seaweed snack, the iodine helps selenium absorption. So eat these together as a snack. 2. Use dried or salted and rinsed seaweed and algae in your stews, curries, rice dishes, noodles, soups. Toss them in and cook them up. Gives fiber and great nutrition. 3. Do not use any form of Hijiki Seaweed. This has been banned in UK. Hijiki contains high amounts of naturally occurring arsenic. You don't want arsenic in your body! All the others are fine. 4. In Ireland and Japan, seaweed is a natural food and health supplement. Great stuff. Ocean vegetables contain double the vitamins and minerals of land grown veggies. Along with the seaweed, add dried and fresh mushrooms and fungus in your foods. Good stuff.

@@noshiniqbal5132 If you have any Oriental Markets near you you can find it there. I buy it from one near me. Not sure if regular grocery stores have it or not. Try the foreign food section. Like where you would find Mexican, Asian, and other countries food items.
Thank you for doing this video. I was one of the people who asked you for it. I consume 8 grams (half a packet) a day with a little GT’S Kombucha (GT’S uses kiwi juice instead of cane sugar) and an ounce or two of 85% chocolate. Costco sells a 10 pack (17 grams per packet) for $9.50.
Happy days, I've lived by the sea for 16 years but only today I brought a seaweed home and ate it raw/heated up. It tasted delicious and nourishing. Will definitely eat it regularly from now on.
I eat both Japanese and Korean nori. Korean ones are salted and sometimes have oil on them so just check that it's an oil you like. Eg. The one that advertised olive oil was mixed with soy oil. Great snack!
There's the black/purplish laver variety of seaweed too for soups if you can find it. Once cooked, it turns dark green hue. Chop up and add some Napa cabbage to that, a few large slices of ginger, chunks of white flesh fish or dried shrimps (East Asian, Southeast Asian and South Asian cuisines uses this, imparting a unique umami flavor), scallions for garnish and season to taste…yum! When the cabbage stalks are soft and on the translucent side, the soup is done.
We Welsh have eaten seaweed in a form known as laverbread in wales for many generations it’s now considered a delicacy so the price has risen prepared correctly it isn’t salty but has a mineral flavour and has to be the correct plant
Dr Berg, PLEASE answer me, I would REALLY appreciate it. I follow your videos for years now and am very grateful for everything you do!! For the seaweed, I definitely love the nutrients, HOWEVER. I contacted several companies that produce the seaweed, they said that it is dried at very high temperatures, much higher than what iodine can tolerate. Therefore, most of the iodine is evaporated from the products that we eat. (The companies agreed, that it is a source of iodine, but not a good one...) Plus, it is fried/roasted in vegetable oils which is not great either. If the producing companies agree that roasted seed has only traces of iodine remaining after the transformation and the food is heated in oils, is it still a healthy product to consume? Btw, of we check the nutritional values in the back of the box, iodine is not mentioned.
I buy dried kelp and soak it in hot water for 10 minutes, then follow the recipe for a delicious seaweed salad. It's not roasted or cooked and it hasn't upset my tummy. Our local Chinese shop has lots of different seaweeds.
Thankyou for doing what you do Dr.Berg you have changed mine and my girlfriend's + family's life over the last two years. Always learning from you. Thanks again.
I can watch Dr. Erick Berg all day everyday!! Very intelligent and nothing but facts!!! Thank you for all of your content, Dr.Berg! I love it!! YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

For those of us concerned about iron levels in our blood, should we avoid seaweed? I believe that senior multiple vitamin pills do not usually contain iron.
@@injanhoi1 actually brown rice is the one that needs to be taken in moderation..it has traces of heavy metals like arsenic.....rice makes you fat is a wrong statement... anything in excess makes you fat....on the other hand the processed carbs in pasta , and breads are bad....I personally cannot eat them as I have an autoimmune condition...have had rice or rice derivatives for most of my meals...and I'm well within my ideal bmi ....to each its own...rice suits me... maybe not you...but can't say that it's bad universally.
I take 1 or 2 packs and pour hot water over them to make a quick seaweed soup. Add salt, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper to taste. Its especially nice when I'm feeling ill.

I was just diagnosed with hypothyroidism, and placed on a low dose of Levothyroxine this week. I just ordered a bunch of seaweed snacks, and Brazil nuts. I’m willing to try anything to feel better, and help the medicine work, as I know it’s a combination of medication, and lifestyle. I’m planning on using the seaweed for my nightly snacking, and will have 2 Brazil nuts in the morning, as if it’s a dietary supplement. Not sure what to expect taste wise, but I’ll be eating it, regardless.
the seaweed pack i found at costco the other day was amazing. 10 large packages with no cheap oils, organic and product of korea (i assume south...) so none of the red flags i look for b4 buying seaweed snacks. my only complaint is they are kinda saltier than i'd prefer. but v tasty esp with sesame flavor!
I appreciated this episode very much. You addressed some things I've wondered about. I love the dehydrated seaweed sheets, but the packaging of the ones I've seen don't list the minerals provided by the seaweed. Good stuff! Thank you. I've learned so much from you.
@@Drberg I was curious if seaweed could be consumed during intermittant fasting (I do OMAD)? Sometimes I feel low energy and feel I need electrolytes but would rather eat seaweed than put salt in my water. Thx
Thank you, Dr. Berg. I just started eating roasted seaweed. A few months ago, I tried it and hated it. But in the past couple of weeks, I have begun to eat it daily. I LOVE IT.
My daughter and I tried roasted seaweed a few days ago. My daughter made the comment that it tastes like you’re licking a fish! Lol! I agree, but now, we’re addicted and can’t get enough. How weird is that?

I grew up eating this. My siblings and I would argue over who gets the whole packge and when someone would roast directly it on the gas stove, one of the other siblings would come and snatch a piece from the plate sitting next to the stove that has already been roasted.👍👍
Dr. Berg, Thanks again for another great video. I love seaweed too but what about seaweed that has perilla oil or sesame oil in it? A lot of seaweed has those oils in them as well (especially Korean brands). Those have got to have some gmo in them and can't be good for you.
Dr. Berg I know everything about it The issue is how to consumed in your diet Many times I find them in health store with Vegetables oils and it didn't say Non GMO ...that is why i stay away when they ruin this good source of nutrient with theses kinds of oils Same like good source of Sardines dipping in sunflower oils 😔 The product rich with omega 3 they add so much of omega 6 to it Good video jeep it up

No HIJIKI seaweed! GOT IT.
Iodine will also strengthen your stomach acid, thus better digestion and no acid reflux. Seaweed is great! Thanks, great video.
