Burns

(see also under Skin below)

Seagreens® has been used to remarkable effect on burned and grazed skin and on skin where the outer layer has been partially or wholly removed (for example by burning or steaming).

Seagreens® Microgranules can be prepared by mixing with a warm pure distilled or mineral water in the manner of a poultice or facepack until a suitably moist, warm paste can be applied - preferably at body temperature - to cover the affected area without dripping off, even where the skin is grazed or broken.

It may be applied where there is severe inflammation which will normally calm down rapidly. It is preferable then to dress the area with an even moister compress and cover, so that the moisture will be retained in the seaweed, and leave for several hours or if possible overnight.

The Microgranules are air dried homogeneous micronized particles of Seagreens® single wild Arctic wrack called Ascophyllum nodosum. This has an outstanding balance of nutrients which include all the minerals and trace elements, growth hormones and numerous betaines. Both the seaweed and its extracts are widely used in wound dressings and thalassotherapy (eg. seaweed body wraps). As a food ingredient, it has long been known to improve the bloom of horses, dogs and mink, not to mention human hair, skin and nails.
