Sea moss has become a staple in many plant-based and Vegan wellness routines, but a recent voluntary recall reminds us that sourcing and food safety matter just as much as benefits. In this episode, we break down the Diva Farms True Sea Moss recall, explain why pH levels and documentation are critical, and explore what this situation teaches consumers about transparency, regulation, and informed decision-making. We also discuss why people take sea moss, its potential benefits, and what to look for when choosing a brand you can trust.

What You’ll Learn

  • What triggered the Diva Farms True Sea Moss recall
  • Why botulism risk is linked to improper processing

  • The importance of process authority letters and documentation
  • Common sourcing concerns in the sea moss industry

Key Takeaway

Natural and trending do not automatically mean safe. Education, transparency in sourcing, and basic food safety standards are essential when adding supplements like sea moss to your routine.
