Traditional Uses of Sea Moss
Ireland (Chondrus crispus – Irish Moss):
During the Irish Potato Famine in the 1840s, Irish communities used sea moss as a survival food. It was boiled into a porridge or added to soups for its nutrition and ability to thicken foods.
Caribbean (Eucheuma & Gracilaria species):
In Jamaica, St. Lucia, and other islands, sea moss was traditionally made into a tonic drink with milk, spices (nutmeg, cinnamon), and sometimes sweeteners. It was considered an aphrodisiac and a strength-building tonic for men.
Modern Continuation
Today, sea moss is still used much the same way—blended into gels, smoothies, teas, and even skincare. It’s celebrated for:
- Gut health and digestion support
- Immune system boosting
- Skin hydration and radiance
- Energy and recovery
In short: sea moss has always been a “people’s superfood”—a survival food, a medicine, and a wellness tonic—passed down through cultural traditions from Ireland to the Caribbean.
