There are about 30 different genera of kelp, largely found in colder seas along coastlines in the Northern Hemisphere.
Some species grow very long and form kelp forests. Kelp forests are underwater areas in temperate and polar coastal oceans with a high density of kelp and are recognized as one of the most productive and dynamic ecosystems on earth.”

For humans, kelp has long been used as a source of nutrition, providing such elements as iodine, calcium, iron, and diverse vitamins, and its use in medicine traces as far back as 3000 BCE in China. Kelp often is recommended today by naturopaths and herbalists for various conditions, such as thyroid disorders.
