Users report kelp reduced thier celluite
Kelp is commonly used in herbal medicine to stimulate the thyroid function, and can be effective in weight loss as part of a low calorie diet. The consumption of seaweeds has also been associated with lower cancer rates.
Kelp, or dried seaweed, Fucus vesiculosis, was the original source of iodine, being discovered as such by Courtois in 1812. Iodine does not occur in nature in the uncombined condition, but is widely, though sparingly, distributed in the form of iodides and iodates, chiefly of sodium and potassium, in seawater, some seaweeds, and various mineral and medicinal springs. Kelp is an important part of the diet in Japan, Norway, and Scotland. For vegans (vegetarians who eat no animal products at all), it supplies vitamin B12, otherwise found almost exclusively in animal products, and is a concentrated source of minerals, including iodine, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and iron. As a source of iodine, it assists in the production of of thyroid hormones, which are necessary for maintaining healthy metabolism in all cells of the body. The brown algae known as bladderwrack is a particularly common source of kelp.

| Kelp can be eaten as an occasional dietary item in any quantity desired. It should not be eaten every day, though, to prevent consuming too much iodine. It has been reported that the average kelp-based supplement contains 1,000 micrograms of iodine per dose. The recommended dietary intake of iodine for adults in the United States is 150 micro-grams per day, with intakes above 2,000 micrograms per day considered potentially harmful. You should therefore limit consumption of kelp to once a week unless otherwise directed. Prescription for Herbal Healing (2002) Phyllis A. Balch |

Bladderwrack for :Weight Loss |
|
In 1862 Dr. Duchesne-Duparc found, while experimenting with bladderwrack in cases of chronic psoriasis, that weight was reduced without injuring health, and used the drug with success for the latter purpose. Later
experiments of Hunt and Seidell indicated that the result is brought about by stimulation of the thyroid gland. Maud Grieve, Modern Herbal Vol 1 (1931) |

Fucus (Kelp) for :Reduce cellulite |
|
Kelp has long been used to reduce cellulite deposits, or unsightly lumps of fat that appear principally on the thighs. Because of its high iodine content, many nutritionists assume that kelp stimulates thyroid function, which increases the rate at which the body uses energy and, as a consequence, decreases fat deposits. Numerous users have reported success with this treatment, although no studies have been done in this area. Kelp is most likely to stimulate weight loss when used as part of a low-calorie diet.

Kelp for :Cancer and fibrocystic breasts |
|
Because kelp decreases transit time, or the time it takes food to get from one end of the digestive system to the other, its use lowers the risk that estrogens present in the stool will be absorbed back into the bloodstream. Lowered estrogen levels are associated with lower rates of cancer, including breast and colorectal cancer, and help ease fibrocystic breast disease. Phyllis A. Balch, Prescription for Herbal Healing (2002) |

Kunstformen der Natur (1904)
The term kelp is used to describe a number of brownish-green seaweed species. Fucus is a genus of brown algae (seaweed) that lives in the intertidal zones of rocky shores. A common species found on the Atlantic coasts of Europe and North America is Fucus vesiculosus or bladderwrack. On the Pacific coast of North America, the most common species is Fucus gardneri. Kelp used in herbal medicine is harvested when the plant is small and the entire plant is used. Kelp is harvested year-round in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean, and off the coasts of Japan.
