One of the most nutrient-dense plants on the planet, seaweed has been a staple of the healthy Asian diet for hundreds of years. In addition to being a great source of vitamins A, B, C, E and K, seaweed is rich iodine, selenium, and iron and can contain up to 10 times more calcium than milk. Seaweed has also been linked to a variety of health benefits, including preventing osteoporosis, improving insulin resistance, and helping control cholesterol and managing weight.

"Given the incredible reception of our Ocean's Halo Seaweed Chips over the last 18 months it was only natural to expand our product offerings to retailers and consumers." said Robert Mock, co-founder of Ocean's Halo. "We are now in over 2000 retail locations throughout the U.S and Canada with our Ocean's Halo Seaweed Chips and we expect our Seaweed Snacks to match this growing distribution wave. Molly Stones Markets in the Bay Area was our first customer back in 2013 and we look forward to them carrying our new Ocean's Halo Seaweed Snacks this spring."
