Fucus In Denmark
QUESTION: I am a type O from Denmark. I have changed to type O diet and some of my allergic problems are gone, almost miraculously. I have previously asked how to take bladderwrack. I can see that in the USA you have not the same trouble as here in Denmark. Here I can purchase dried plant, it is hard and sharp-edged. I have grinded it to a coarse powder, but how much do I take? Until now I have taken 1 big teaspoonful daily and I think it has some effect but find it hard to detect. I will be grateful for an answer. Good luck with your work.
ANSWER: In my clinical practice I'll use anywhere from 500-1500mg of the freeze-dried preparation of Fucus vesiculosis (Bladderwrack), so given the specifics of your question your are probably not too far off the mark. You may want to encapsulate the preparation in '00' capsules (taking 1-3 daily) or just sprinkle the ground powder on a salad or in soups. You can also purchase the North American Fucus Product from this website or call them for a recommendation to a local distributor.
