According to Omer Kamp from Arava Export Growers, "While considering today's market conditions, the prospective of these Organic Seaweeds overcomes any probable obstacle. In other words, Arava's Organic Seaweeds are as exceptional as they are incomparable,"
"To truly understand and comprehend why Organic Seaweeds are one of nature's true wonder foods, one must take into consideration that Organic Seaweeds include merits such as, Blood Purifying, 10 times more calcium than in milk, alkalizing, protection from environmental toxins, high Anti-oxidants, high level of chlorophyll – detoxifying and, just as important, a natural boost for weight- loss." shares Kamp.
Moreover, Organic Seaweeds have all the characteristics that make a product a real winner:
- Nutritional values that, in all aspects, top the chart.
- Diverse culinary applications.
- Eco- Clean and Organic.
- Supplied Fresh with extended shelf-life.
- Stable & continuous availability Year-Round.
- Unique and Innovative.
The farm growing the Seaweeds, Seakura, is probably the only one in existence that actually cultivates the product on land and offshore with the use of purified Mediterranean Sea water. While others harvest seaweed from the ocean, Seakura took the initiative to grow it in specialized eco pools, based and located on the seashore, approximately 50 meters away from the sea-line. Not only is the seaweed offered by Arava are 100% Organic, but also they are 100% clean with exceptional nutritional values.
"The essence," according to Omer Kamp, "is to understand that seaweed is a vegetable with similar characteristics to algae, not your ordinary plant, but still, for that reason, its health remedies top the chart. A Seaweed, in all its forms, has the ability to absorb minerals, vitamins and all of what the surrounding offers. However, when grown near the shores, it also absorbs the negative elements we wish to avoid, such as Petro, Lead, Mercury, Pollution etc."
Seakura has innovated a unique technology that allows the control of what the plant absorbs by restricting its environment. The procedure includes the pumping of deep water from the Mediterranean into huge pools. The water, at this stage, is cleansed and purified. Since it is pumped from the abyss, heavy metals and petro is nowhere to be found. Thus, the company can insure a clean, eco product.
100 gr of the seaweed holds the following nutritional values; 31.9 g Proteins, 30 mg Iron, 2.73 mg Vitamin B12, 21.9 Vitamin C, 238 mg Magnesium and high nutritional fibers, which makes this a super healthy product, a superfood. "The seaweed is unrivaled per 100 gr, and you would be hard pressed to find anything, from nature, with such a high density of Minerals, Fibers and Vitamins. You could maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating the seaweeds alone each day." says Kamp.
There are currently 2 lines, the Ulva (AKA Sea Lettuce) and Gracilliria. Both of which are packed in either loose / bulk format or in 100 gr closed lid packages.
"Seaweed is a natural fit for many salads and soups but, it is not limited only for that. As a matter of fact, it is a great ingredient when chopped and added to stews, pasta, bakeries etc… Each time I eat the seaweeds I fill satisfied knowing I have eaten something of a refreshing taste with a complete nutritional values," concludes Omer Kamp.
