Would this be a better alternative than Flax Seed?
I'd be slightly leery about spending this kind of $$$ on seaweed. I'm sure the stuff is probably pretty good for you, but you would want to take it in addition to flax seed oil (or hemp seed oil) not as a replacement for it.
It mentions that it has omega 3 or omega 6 essential fatty acids (good fats/oils) but so far as I can see there is no list of the amount of these oils nor vitamins or minerals. They just seem to say, this is really good for you - take our word for it.
I'm resolving to eat healthier this year, and a big part of that will be making sure I get my omega 3's and 6's. The Standard American Diet (SAD) is sorely lacking in these good (*essential*, since the body cannot make them by itself) fats. I think that diet and shred are definitely closely related. The year I decided to become vagan (I'm only vegetarian now) was the first year that I won doubles freestyle at Worlds with Rippin.
I have heard that spirulina is one of the best sources of protein that you can get. This product basically sounds like glorified spirulina. Spriulina really is good stuff, but it's tough to choke down

. From what I understand it was one of the first life forms on earth (back in the day it was the most complicated as well). I guess it sort of makes sense that something that is so basic and fundamental to life would be good for you.
Let me know if anyone actually tries getting this stuff.
Peace.
