My mom always tried to push me to eat seaweeds. She added them to stews and salads, but I hated them. They completely changed the flavor of the dish.
I forgot about them until I tried sushi not so long ago (as almost everyone in western cultures) and became adicted to Nori (the seaweed used in rolls). Now I don't care what kind of sushi I eat as long as it has Nori in it. I love the texture, the flavor, the consistency...and I know it's really healthy too!

Seaweeds contain every nutrient found in the ocean and every mineral found in the human blood. Thats something!:

It's great for weightloss, as it has almost no calories and its fiber content contributes to a feeling of satiety.
It helps in the digestion process, as it creates movement in the bowels helping the elimination of waste.
It is anti-cancerous and anti-inflammatory
It can substitute salt, reducing the risk of high bloos pressure (therefore, of heart attack and stroke)
