Seagreens® continues to develop its own quality standards through meticulous care and preparation from plant selection, through harvesting to production, storage, delivery, documentation, and technical support to food manufacturing standards. They became Europe’s first Organically Certified, ocean-to-table seaweed producer in 1998 and today no other producer is Certified in Europe and the USA in line with Biodynamic® and EU and NOP Organic standards. As a result of its own early programme of original seaweed food research, with academic and food industry partners, Seagreens® has set up the Seaweed Health Foundation, an independent, not-for-profit research and information forum based in Yorkshire. | Beyond the mandatory Organic standards, Seagreens® is additionally Certified free of ocean-borne contaminants, toxic metals and microbial pathogens - an assurance which even organic vegetables don't offer! No allergic reactions have been found in more than 10 years of use, there are nomedical contra-indications, and Seagreens® are compatible with drug, herbal and nutritional supplement protocols. Many practitioners attest to their usefulness as a foundation to most therapeutic nutrient protocols. Their broad, balanced nutritional profile may be just what is needed to aid metabolism and nutrient absorption. They are easy and safe to use in infants, children, pregnancy, frail and incontinent patients, in recuperation and at high levels of daily intake. They are the ideal nutritional support in all special diets for all ages. | Following British Government sponsored research at the Centre for Food Innovation, set up by Sheffield University, England in 2007 Seagreens® are recommended ingredients in manufactured foods, particularly where the aim is salt (sodium chloride) reduction, or where food quality, obesity and weight regulation are important issues. “Your products are fantastic. They are really good and easy to use and they make it easy for people to get the seaweed into their daily diet” Jacqueline Young, Nutritional Therapist, Naturopathic Teacher and Author, London, England, verbal endorsement, November 2004.
