It is virtually impossible for me in Australia to get marine vegetables/sea moss/or Jubb's products due to economy/availability. Are there any alternative foods I could incorporate to supplement for this potential deficit?

cheers for all your help.

Thanks buddy, appreciate the reply.

Prices do seem quite high though. Have you tried the dulse? how much are you supposed to use in your smoothie for exaple?

cheers.

Yeah i have the organic red dulse 125g bag.

The 125g bag is $18 and its a good size bag.It's dry so the weight is misleading.

I just get out a piece or 2 (about half a hand full or more without compressing), and eat it.I put it in the blender some times but i just find it makes my drink less good so i eat the seaweed in 1 go then wash it down instead.

Luke talks about making some sort of jelly like thing by soaking it somewhere in the lifefood section but i read it a long time ago.

I haven't tried making it into anything.

The description says;

Hand harvested from the icy-cold waters of the isolated under-populated Eastern Maritime provinces of Canada, this rare and unique sun-dried seaweed has a velvety texture and delicious mild savoury taste.

dulse is amazing for soups chips and breads, its savory like in the description

if u use it in a smoothie use a small amount but irish sea moss is the best for desserts because it has no taste much
