Sea vegetables also contain antioxidants like vitamins C and E, beta carotene, and other phytonutrients. Irish moss helps to give this soup a creamy texture while providing more iodine, fiber, beneficial bacteria, and nutrients to support the immune system.

Arame is high in vitamin K, vitamin B9, calcium, magnesium, and iodine. It is nutrient-dense and has been shown to help with blood sugar regulation which is very important in balancing the adrenals. Imbalances in blood sugar can impact the body's stress response and adrenal function.
