Description

Seaweed may be one of the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet—and one of the most powerful allies we have for both human health and planetary regeneration. Yet for most people, it’s still completely missing from daily nutrition.

In this episode we are joined by Sachi Singh, founder of Rootless and creator of The Daily Bite—a first-of-its-kind, food-based seaweed supplement designed to deliver therapeutic, hormone-supportive levels of minerals and phytonutrients in a simple, delicious daily format. With over 13 years of experience working in international climate change solutions and a Master’s degree in Environmental Management from Yale University, Sachi bridges nutrition science, climate systems, and women’s health in a way few voices can.

This episode goes far beyond trend-based superfoods and dives into the real biological and ecological power of five critical seaweeds you should be consuming regularly, including:

• Dulse – rich in potassium and antioxidants that support cardiovascular health and cellular hydration
• Sea Moss – a prebiotic-rich polysaccharide powerhouse for gut lining repair, microbiome balance, and immune regulation
• Sea Lettuce – dense in chlorophyll, magnesium, and trace minerals that support longevity and mitochondrial function
• Sugar Kelp – a thyroid-supportive iodine source that plays a key role in metabolic signaling and weight regulation
• Bladderwrack – traditionally used for endocrine balance, detoxification, and hormone support

Sachi also unpacks the hormonal intelligence of seaweed, explaining why sea vegetables are uniquely supportive during:

• Thyroid disorders and metabolic instability
• Chronic fatigue and blood sugar dysregulation

But this episode isn’t only about nutrition—it’s about food systems that actively heal the Earth.

Seaweed doesn’t just avoid environmental damage—it actively restores ecosystems. Seaweed farms draw carbon directly out of surrounding seawater and air, reduce ocean acidification, regenerate marine biodiversity, and help stabilize coastal environments. In short, seaweed rewilds the ocean while feeding humanity.

Since its debut in 2022, The Daily Bite has helped women sustain steady all-day energy, rebuild mineral reserves, stabilize digestion, and re-establish hormonal balance using whole-food seaweed nutrition rather than synthetic isolates. Sachi’s mission is clear: to build a better food system while empowering women to reclaim their health during some of the most powerful transitions of their lives.

This episode is for anyone who cares about:

• Thyroid, gut, and hormone health
• Climate-forward nutrition
• Regenerative agriculture and ocean rewilding
• Women’s metabolic and endocrine resilience
• Building food systems that nourish both people and planet
