seaweeds, such as dulse, focus/bladderwrack, or kelp, are not only high in minerals but also high in polysaccharides:
~ mineral deficiency may be a possible cause of cravings
~ polysaccharides are carbs, fill the stomach (if large pieces are soaked in water), & are not glucose or fructose per se
I like seaweed too. I use some kombu strips like pasta. I like wakame for salad. What is really nice is that they are dried and can be stored long and eaten any time. Some people fret over possible toxins like arsenic in some seaweeds - hijiki is notorious in this regard. How do you feel about this, and what are the seaweeds you consume?
