How Much Sea Moss To Take Daily?
The recommended amount of sea moss gel to take daily is 1-2 tablespoons per day. You can take up to 1/4 cup.
You can use Sea Moss Gel in a Smoothie
The easiest and my favorite way to enjoy the benefits of sea moss is to put it in a smoothie! Because sea moss is so light in taste, whatever fruits and vegetables you use in the smoothie will mask the taste of the sea moss. You can also add it to your juice, tea, coffee, oatmeal and stews!
Sea moss, often called “vegan gelatin”, has a mucilaginous and gel-like consistency, thus can be used to thicken foods. It’s perfect for thickening soups, stews, drinks, ice cream, and more.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SEA MOSS

HERBAL TEAS
Whether you want something to warm you up in winter or cool you down in summer, herbal tea can be consumed year-round since it's a delicious beverage at any temperature. The health benefits can also be enjoyed regardless of whether you drink it hot or cold, but these benefits vary largely by the type of tea you drink.
Herbal teas — unlike standard teas such as green tea, oolong tea, and black tea —are not made from the tea plant known as the Camellia sinensis plant. Instead, herbal teas are derived from a variety of dried flowers, spices, herbs and fruits. This has led to a huge variety of flavors and options when it comes to choosing teas for taste and health benefits. You'll find herbal teas from all over the globe including China, Africa, and the Americas.
It's no secret that tea is a popular selection for individuals who want to improve their health naturally. Unlike coffee and standard teas, most herbal teas are caffeine-free. They also feature nutrients, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that vary depending on the herbal blend.
Typical health benefits from drinking herbal tea include relaxation, pain reduction and the improvement of body systems such as digestive and immune. Some research also shows anticancer effects and benefits for people with type 2 diabetes.
Check out our Super Herbs blog to discover some of the benefits from our expansive list of herbal teas!
