15. Wild and Sustainable Sea Moss with Mike Ryan


Listen Later

Today, we’re joined by Mike Ryan. He’s the owner and founder of Samadhi Moss, a truly wild & sustainable sea moss company based in Encinitas. He sources his sea moss directly and exclusively from the island of Grenada, cultivating fair trade relationships with the divers to bring us the most authentic sea moss on the market. 

Throughout our conversation, we discuss Mike’s entrepreneurial journey that led to starting the Samadhi Moss business, and what inspired him to focus solely on sea moss. We explore the reasons that he has chosen to avoid scaling his business to the point of being in major grocery stores, and we get a behind-the-scenes look into his company’s process of sustainable harvest and production.

Tune in to learn more about: 

  • Why it’s crucial to know the origins of your sea moss 

  • Are seaweed and sea moss the same? 

  • What’s included in the Samadhi Moss blend 

  • The difference between wildcrafted and farmed, and the potential hidden meanings of each 

  • What to look for when seeking product transparency

  • Why Mike has chosen to move away from supplementation in favor of whole foods 

  • Is it possible to overdose on sea moss?
