Algae

I was searching for algae and only found some cosmetics etc. Is it possible for us poor continental creatures to get marine algae - fresh? My next question is - are the ones in powder form with the same (or close) nutrition value as the fresh ones?

I started to believe in the aquatic ape theory, and I think we need much more iodide than official recommendation is.

Iodine recommendations are only to offset goiter so yeah they are lower.

If its iodine your looking for seaweeds are the best source and about the algae there isn't much difference nutritionally.

My Sun-Chlorella tablets have a nice, clean smell, so I'm
guessing some nutrition is still there. Plus, I like what they do.
Expect to pay close to one dollar per serving.
No Algae, that I know of, is totally Fresh.....WY

I actually often go to a Corean supermarket, I am sure they have something, but I don't know what I am looking for.
