Sea moss gel is made by adding water to sea moss and blending it together. The plant also produces a thickening agent called carrageenan. Sea Moss is found along the coasts of the Atlantic, primarily between North America and Europe, in the warmer waters of Asia, South America, and Africa and some parts of the Caribbean.

Chondrus Crispus (commonly referred to as Irish sea moss), Gracilaria (commonly known as Jamaican sea moss) and Eucheuma Cottonii (commonly referred to as gusô) are several types of sea moss used in food production.

Sea moss typically refers to specific types of algae or seaweed that are naturally rich in certain nutrients, including folate, vitamin K, iron, iodine, magnesium, and calcium.
