🧫 Fermented Superfoods Spotlight #6 — Dulse
🧬 Why It Matters
Dulse is a mineral‑rich sea vegetable that becomes even more nutrient‑dense when fermented. The process softens its texture, deepens its flavor, and boosts its functional benefits.
- High in iodine → supports thyroid health
- Rich in iron + potassium → strengthens energy and electrolyte balance
- Natural antioxidants → protect cells from oxidative stress
- Fermentation adds probiotics → supports gut health
