I want to boost the weight loss. does bladderwrack work?

No: Bladderwrack is a seaweed that has never been scientifically proven to benefit any medical problem or condition, much less weight loss. Don't spend your money on things that you don't even know what they are or what they're supposed to do or what problems can occur if you taken them. Don't get your medical info from friends, tv or the internet.

Not for general : weight loss - hypothyroidism. Bladderwrack (Fucus Vesiculosus) has been reported to help with lipid balance in obesity combined with hypothyroidism. I can't recommend for or against it. Would consult with your physician before taking bladderwrack or any other supplements.
