Our Sea-Vegetables Powder is a blend of dulse, wakame and kelp, all harvested off the coast of Maine. They are certified organic and are thoroughly tested for any trace of contamination by such things as heavy metals and radiation. It has a more "oceanic" flavor than our mild Nori Powder, and it's packed with vital nutrients.
Dulse, a kind of red algae, has been used in Europe for at least 1,500 years, and there is a reference in a Chinese health manual from 600 BC about the necessity of feeding red dulse to the Chinese kings to insure their longevity. Dulse is rich in such minerals as iodine for thyroid support, chromium for blood-sugar regulation and manganese for supporting healthy bone formation. It is also rich in valuable omega-3 fats and other fat-soluble carotenoids.
Wakame is used liberally in traditional Japanese cuisine as a flavoring in soup as it pairs well with miso. The most intriguing aspect of wakame is that it is rich in a chemical called fucoxanthin, which inhibits the accumulation of fat in cells, thereby preventing obesity. Its use as a safe and natural weight-loss aide is being studied. Because of the ability of fucoxanthin to inhibit the accumulation of fat, it also lowers the LDL levels in the blood.
Kelp has been shown to lower the serum estradiol levels. Finally, kelp is rich in sodium alginate, which has been shown to reduce the absorption of radiation from the gut by 50 to 80 percent.
A delicious blend (with a stronger ocean taste than nori), our Sea-Vegetables Powder is easy to use in soups, sprinkled on eggs or as a flavor enhancer for any savory dish. Our favorite way to use our Sea-Vegetables Powder is added to bone-broth soup with eggs and fresh vegetables.
Love it so far. I have been sprinkling into my daily smoothie!

I love the fresh and slightly salty taste. This is such a convenient way for me to get all the goodness from the ocean. I appreciate the clean processing and helpful ingredients. I rely on these vegetable powders for my good health. Thanks, Dr. Cowan’s garden.

The jar lives on my dining table because I sprinkle a bit of it on everything, eggs, pasta, soup, salad etc. The flavor is light and it enhances the nutritional value of food.

I like the powders convenience to just sprinkle on anything and be able to get the minerals

I was glad to find out that the taste of the sea-vegetable powder isn't too fishy or pungent. I bought it for its health benefits but was thinking it would be like 'making the medicine go down'. But it's subtle and it's been an addition to my daily avocado toast -- and an addition to my egg salad.

Tastes great in food and easy to use and it’s great even on its own

I really enjoy Dr. Cowan's Vegetables and use several products. They are a great way to add a boost of nutrients to my daily juice and smoothies too.

I crave sea vegetables and this is such a pure and easy way to get them into my body everyday. I usually make a "seaweed" shot (heaping 1/4 t. in 2oz water). I like doing it this way because I love the taste but not on my food so much. I have also been putting a heaping 1/4 t. on my dog's food everyday and she loves the taste and seems to be benefiting from the extra nutrition too!
Blaise A.5/5
Got it for the iodine and assurances of a clean source, which I hope I can trust. The taste isn't great -- I didn't expect it to be -- but it is easily disguisable in small quantities. Have only had it for about a week, too soon to say if it is helpful.

Good in salads, and eggs and turkey burgers

By having access to the Cowan sea vegetables, I get the nutritional benefit of living by the sea right here in my midwest home.

Dr Cowan, once again, you have hit a grand slam with another healthy product! Thanks to you and your associates, may Yahweh bless you all!

We were purchasing kelp salt and flakes at the health food store. We stopped because we purchased Dr Cowan's sea vegetables and enjoy them tremendously. Dr Cowan's is so much better because the health food store kelp kept getting caught in our teeth. Not a problem with Dr Cowan's sea vegetables. They are tasty and more versatile and no more in our teeth. I will continue to purchase it and would recommend it.
Thank you, Dr Cowan.

I’m really enjoying the sea vegetable powder! At first I put it in my green smoothie in the morning… I like it and will continue…. However, I really enjoy it the most sprinkled over my salad and in soups. I’m still learning how to use these amazing powders in my foods and not just in a smoothie. Love it! Thank you!
Patricia B.5/5Verified
I bought the vegetable powder, sea vegetables and ramp. I love them both and really needed a source of sea vegetables. I put this on every thing I eat unless it’s sweet of course.
I use it on vegetables, meat, soup, cheese, pimento and chesse sandwiches, tomato anything. I really love it on eggs and potatoes, any potatoes. I do wish it had a sprinkle top but no big deal. I transferred some to a salt shaker and it perfectly fine. I do love the beautiful container it comes in. It’s very different. The ramp is excellent on and in eggs and soul of any type. I can’t recommend it enough. I use it at least twice a day but I only eat one meal so it’s tough to get full tablespoon some days. I haven’t tried it on my Cottage chesse yet but I will. Thank you for such innovative ideas to boost our nutritional intake. There are a few more things I want to purchase but I have a tight budget.

Great way to get Iodine
This does taste like the sea; I use sparingly but love that I am getting iodine naturally and know the body likes it that way.

Sea vegetable
I love it and use it on veggie soups- next step to put into smoothis- I think my eyes and my skin are responding with brightness Is that possible already
Carol L.5/5
Tasty and actually you can taste the powder even a little sprinkle in the food
The powders are very intense, smell and taste very good. The only thing I was surprised was measurements. Turmeric bottle was filled to the top of the bottle when the rest of 3 bottles where filled unevenly(I would say 3/4 or less of the bottle was filled)
Viktoriia G.4/5
Love the variety of choices`
I greatly appreciate that your website offers such a diverse variety of great tasting and healthy choices. Used sparingly, the Sea-Vegetables powder adds subtle enhancement to my favorite recipes..... gives them greater depth.

Love the Sea-Vegetables Powder
I love the Sea-Vegetables Powder. I was using just Dulse, but this allows me to get a couple of other sea vegetables into my diet as well. I trust the quality of the products and appreciate the glass containers. I will definitely be buying more, as I use this on everything!
