The main difference between dried sea moss and sea moss gel lies in their preparation and convenience:

• Dried Sea Moss: This is sea moss in its natural, sun-dried form. It requires soaking and blending to create a gel, allowing you to control the texture and consistency. It’s ideal for those who enjoy preparing their own gel and want a longer shelf life, as dried sea moss can last up to a year when stored properly.

• Sea Moss Gel: This is pre-prepared and ready to use, offering ultimate convenience. It’s perfect for those with a busy lifestyle or who prefer a ready-made option to easily incorporate into their meals, drinks, or skincare routines.
