What science says
“The results have shown the presence of all essential amino acids.”
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) and Kombu (Laminaria digitata japonica) → contain → all essential amino acids
“The values of essential amino acid ratios of analysed algae exceed the ratios of reference proteins suggested by FAO/WHO/UNU, except for tryptophan, the first limiting amino acid in both analysed algae.”
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) and Kombu (Laminaria digitata japonica) → exceed → essential amino acid ratios of reference proteins suggested by FAO/WHO/UNU
“Iodine, the most important component of sea vegetables is present in high amounts as well as the vitamins B1, B2, B6, niacin and β-carotene.”
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) and Kombu (Laminaria digitata japonica) → contain → high amounts of iodine, vitamins B1, B2, B6, niacin, and β-carotene
“The content of minerals was found high, while the presence of heavy metals was negligible.”
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) and Kombu (Laminaria digitata japonica) → contain → high amounts of minerals
“The results have shown the presence of all essential amino acids.”
Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) and Kombu (Laminaria digitata japonica) → contain → all essential amino acids
