    4 Stars Not your average seaweed dish! 20/01/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Natural remedy for a varity of ailments inc. weak hair & brittle nails

    Disadvantages Disadvantages 3-a day dose may cause certain people to develop spots, taste of tablets

    This review is based on my experiences of "Natures Aid Norwegian Sea Kelp." Frustrated of thin hair that dwindled down to my shoulders and broke whenever I brushed it and flaky nails, I sought a natural product which would help me to grow healthy long locks. I was recommended sea kelp due to the fact it is rich in minerals and elements such as iodine which, amongst other things, promotes healthy hair growth. Sea kelp also helps to regulate the production of thyroid hormones in the body, which in turn, regulates metobolic rate. I chose this brand of tablets for two main reasons. Firstly they ... more

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Doesn't smell or taste very nice.

    Now I have been using sea kelp for about 2months and I have already noticed differences there are many health benefits to the product.

    3 Stars The power of seaweed is unleashed? 15/06/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Natural, inexpensive, variety of benefits

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not amazing results or suitable for quick fix

    My mother had just made a horrible comment about my new hair cut. Her first three words were "It'll grow". She has made negative comments in the past but that was just plain mean. I was devastated and despite constant reassurances from honest people, tearful phonecall to my hairdresser and the fact that I had been very pleased with it, I decided that I had to make my hair grow and fast. Looking around on the internet, there were all sorts of miracle treatments that claimed to make hair grow at an increased rate to the normal (1/4 an inch per month on average). However, there was no scientific ... more

    3 Stars my experience taking some sea kelp vitamins over a few months 22/09/2010
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages supposed to be beneficial, natural product

    Disadvantages Disadvantages no changes in hair growth

    I've been taking Holland & Barrett Sea Kelp 30 mg on and off for a while now. It states on the bottle that you can take up to 3 and I've always been taking the maximum amount I can and haven't really noticed any changes. My reasons for buying After reading online into hair growth (I want mine to growth to the length it was before i cut it to my chest last year and regretted it) I found that some people had recommended it for this so decided to try it. Has it worked? Annoyingly it's done nothing for my hair however diet may contribute. I'm not particularly healthy (i smoke, eat a lot of junk ... more

    4 Stars Sea Kelp 12/07/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Boosts energy, good value for money, natural

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Horrible taste if you let it dissolve in your mouth.

    I first heard about Sea Kelp after enquiring what the many supplements my friend was taking daily were. I had heard of all of them before, except kelp and wanted to know more about it. Basically, it is sea weed and it's supposed to be very good for you. It gives you more energy which boosts your metabolism and aids cell growth, so you nails and hair should grow faster among other things. It is also a natural source of iodine, although this is not a recommended daily requirement. I have found Kelp in all health stores stores I've visited and also a few chemists too. I was surprised to find that ... more
