Wakame is a brown seaweed that has been an important part of the Japanese diet for thousands of years, and is being closely studied for possible therapeutic properties. Along with other types of seaweed, it is considered the new “green gold.” The basis of the “Okinawa diet”—a major source of sustenance for the people of the Japanese Ryukyu islands—it is believed by many to contribute to their exceptional longevity.
