100% Bladderwrack powder

Health Benefits

May Relieve Constipation or Diarrhea

Bladderwrack contains alginic acid, a kind of dietary fiber. Fiber helps with constipation, but it can also relieve diarrhera and keep your bowel movements more regular in general. However, more research is needed to prove the effectiveness of bladderwrack at treating these conditions. 

May Help With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

GERD is chronic acid reflux. It irritates the lining of the esophagus and causes heartburn at least a few times per week. Some people manage it with lifestyle changes, but others take medications or supplements. 

One over-the-counter medication, Gaviscon, uses alginic acid — found in bladderwrack — in combination with magnesium carbonate to treat heartburn and GERD. However, researchers need to perform more studies to see if bladderwrack would be an effective treatment for GERD on its own.

May Relieve Other Stomach Problems

Bladderwrack may relieve stomach problems because it creates a barrier between your sensitive stomach lining and irritants, like stomach acid. It also lowers inflammation, which may relieve some digestive issues.
