Most of us have been eating sushi for years.
And while the salmon and other fillings have always stolen all the glory, we’re here to tell you that the seaweed is the real MVP.
Nori, as the Japanese call it, has been keeping our California rolls intact for centuries but is actually rather delicious on its own.
Western culture has now woken up to the wonders of seaweed snacks, and while they may take some getting used to, it’s totally worth it for all the health benefits those green sheets behold.
Loaded with Vitamins and Mineral
Seaweed contains vitamins A, C, E, and K, along with folate, zinc, sodium, calcium, and magnesium which is almost all the little tablets that you should be taking daily. Although seaweed snacks don’t possess enough to forgo your morning meds, it will make consuming them a whole lot tastier.
Boosts Metabolism
Get fit while feasting? Don’t mind if we do.
With the inclusion of fiber (both the soluble and insoluble kind), eating seaweed helps to ease digestion, prevent bloating, and keeps away the hunger pangs.
Enhances Eyesite
Seaweed snacks do contain some fat — but the good kind. Omega-3 fatty acids are what we so often don’t consume enough of but are so essential to our health and do wonders for our eyes in particular.
All the better to see more snacks with!
