This is a delicious way to enjoy the healing benefits of eating seaweed. Japan & Korea have the lowest rates of reproductive organ cancers in the world, due to their high intake of brown kelps. This soup is served traditionally to new mothers in Korea, made by the mother-in-law for the new mother. She then eats the soup with every meal 3X/day for 100 days, to replenish the nutrients lost during childbirth. More women in North America would benefit from this ancient practice and avoid health complications after childbirth like thyroidism, anemia, fatigue, baby brain & more, by eating this healing soup full of nutritious & delicious brown kelp known as wakame or alaria. Enjoy!
