Why organic seaweed?
The seaweed the Aalgo team harvest off the North West, West and South West coasts of Ireland contains large air sacks and as a result it floats vertically in small forests normally found in sheltered rocky bays. Containing very high concentrations B1, B2, B3, B6, E ,H, K3, vitamin C and Beta – Carotene, and many minerals.
The Aalgo seaweed aims to bring health and in particular skin wellbeing through the powerful, natural, healing properties of seaweed by supplying you with an authentic certified organic seaweed powder which we have produced from hand – harvested wild seaweeds with nothing added and nothing taken from them.
The powdered seaweed gives you a deeply mineral enriched bath or facial which nourishes the body, improves wellbeing and above all clears the skin of rashes, dryness and any itchy skin problems. This works particularly well with eczema and psoriasis, whilst stimulating the lymphatic system. It detoxifies the body leaving one feeling refreshed and revitalised.
The natural ingredients of the 100% seaweed powder products are activated only when mixed with water. In this form the product lasts longer because you choose when to activate it, removing the need for preservatives and stabilisers. This allows your skin to absorb only the goodness of the sea.
Born from a love of the sea nurtured from a love of the skin
A Family business
Aalgo is a family owned and operated business, with its origin stemming from a family ailment of very bad eczema.
From a baby Tom suffered from very debilitating and itchy eczema. Having tried every known medication and diet, with no success, his parents brought him to Switzerland and to the US to seek other treatments. Unfortunately to no avail.
The only relief from the irritation was when his family spent the summer swimming daily in the sea. However, upon return from summer holidays and the start of school it would be back worse than ever.
As he got older the problem got progressively worse with the only relief coming when he swam in the sea, which in Ireland is a little chilly in the winter months!!
During the 80's, already being in the seaweed business, he decided to try and "bring the ocean home". After a couple of years of experimentation with different seaweeds and quantities he came up with a mix of seaweeds that finally worked! "Aalgo was born". Since then he does not have a mark on him and his skin has been totally clear for over 29 years.
For over 29 years now we have shared the benefit of Aalgo's natural formula through a limited number of health spas, health shops, health farms, exhibitions, and now predominantly on the internet.
