How to Use and Store Sea Moss Gel

Daniel

Our gels are made to fit into real life — a morning smoothie, a quiet spoon before work, a cozy mix into evening tea. Here's how to keep yours fresh and get the most out of every jar.

Before you open it

Our gels are vacuum-sealed with no synthetic preservatives. That's a good thing — but it means storage matters.

  • Keep it in a cool, dry place (a pantry shelf is perfect)
  • Shelf-stable for up to 12 months unopened
  • Expiration date is printed on the lid
  • The button on the lid should be fully down before you open it — that means the seal is intact

💡 When you open the jar for the first time, you should hear a pop. That's the vacuum seal releasing — exactly what you want to hear.

After you open it

  • Refrigerate right away
  • Enjoy within 3–4 weeks
  • Keep it cold at all times once the seal is broken
  • Use a clean, dry spoon each time — dipping a used or wet spoon back in can introduce bacteria and shorten its life

❄️ Think of it like fresh food, not a shelf-stable pill. Once it's open, the fridge is its home.

Arrived warm or looking liquid?

Totally normal — and totally safe. Because there are no synthetic thickeners, the gel can loosen when it warms up in transit.

The fix: pop the unopened jar in the fridge for 3–6 hours. It'll firm right back up to its smooth, scoopable texture. → More on this here

How to use it

More versatile than you'd think:

  • 🥄 Straight from the spoon — 2 tablespoons, 1–3 times daily with a meal
  • 🥤 Blended into smoothies, juices, or shakes — tasteless when mixed with fruit
  • 🥣 Stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, or soup — it melts right in
  • Mixed into herbal tea — a calm evening moment
  • 🧖 As a face or hair mask — a few customers swear by it

💡 Take it with food rather than on an empty stomach — it's gentler on your stomach and helps your body absorb the fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).
