Wakame Seaweed

What is wakame seaweed? There are many varieties of seaweed but not all of them are edible. Wakame seaweed is the seaweed that you find in oriental salads and soups. It is different than the seaweed used to wrap sushi. Wakame seaweed is farmed as a crop in Japan. You will find wakame seaweed used in many products including diet pills such as apidexin because of its digestive benefits.

Another health benefit from the ocean

Did you know that seaweed has many health benefits? One of them is as a digestive aid and source of vitamins. Another one is as a eczema treatment. A paste is made from the seaweed and it is used as a cream to treat many skin conditions. So you see, seaweed is not just something wrapped around sushi.

My collection of fish books

When I was little I always had a fish tank with some sort of swimming resident. Since it was my pet and mine alone I had to take of what ever fish I had at the time. Of course I had, and still have many of them, lots of books about pet fish. I did sell a few of them over the years and even listed some of them on Amazon books but I will not get rid of my favorite ones about seahorses. The funny thing is, I never had seahorses as pets, even in the days when you could get a pregnant papa seahorse in the mail for $2.98 I just never thought that I could care for them very well so I passed on have one as a pet. But that did not stop me from reading all I could about them and talking to pet shop owners who sold them.
