Rosita Wild Seaweed blend offers a better spread of micronutrients than a single type of seaweed, providing a more comprehensive nutritional profile.
Rosita Wild Seaweed is harvested at a remote site, Pentland Firth, north of Scotland, which has some of the highest water exchanges in the world, ensuring that the seaweeds are cleaner and healthier than any other seaweed products. Rosita uses a low-temperature drying method that is gentle and helps preserve the delicate micronutrient content, and smaller milling sizes help to improve bioavailability.
The seaweeds are handpicked during their peak growing periods, when the plants are in optimal condition and rich in nutrients. Unlike the common machine harvesting method, individual plants are cut so that enough remains for regrowth and reproduction. Harvesters work in small teams and access the foreshore on foot. The most stringent regulations are followed to ensure the local ecosystem can continue to thrive.
