Soak dried sea moss overnight and it swells into a slippery, translucent gel that thickens anything you blend it into. Whisked into a mango and pineapple smoothie, that gel disappears completely into the texture while leaving behind a dose of minerals most fruit smoothies never get close to. It sits well alongside other gut-focused blends like our Papaya and Ginger Digestive Smoothie.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp prepared sea moss gel
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1/2 banana
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
Instructions
- Add sea moss gel, mango, pineapple, coconut water, banana, lime juice, and ginger to a blender.
- Blend on high for about 45 seconds until fully smooth and no gel flecks remain visible.
- Taste and adjust with more lime juice if you'd like it brighter.
- Pour into two glasses and serve right away.

Why This Is Good for Your Gut
Sea moss is rich in carrageenan-adjacent polysaccharides and mucilage that coat and soothe the intestinal lining, which may ease irritation in a sensitive gut. Pineapple contributes bromelain, an enzyme that assists protein digestion and can reduce bloating after meals. Sea moss is often used within the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, where mucilaginous foods are prioritized for gut lining support.
