About Ocean Botanicals

My name is Wayne T. Gaskins, the founder of Ocean Botanicals. 

I grew up with sea moss—it was a staple in my Caribbean home, something we used daily for strength and vitality. But I didn’t just take what I learned as a child and put a label on it.

After spending over 30 years in cardiology, I saw firsthand how many people turn to medicine only after health problems arise, rather than focusing on prevention and nutrition. 

I knew sea moss had real potential to support overall health—if sourced and prepared the right way.

That’s why I created Ocean Botanicals—to combine the wisdom of my roots with the standards of modern science.

I wanted to make clean, effective sea moss that honors its Caribbean heritage while ensuring it meets the highest quality and safety standards. 

No watered-down products, no empty promises—just real nutrition, done right.

Wayne T. Gaskin, MSc, BSc, RN-BC, RCIS – CEO of Ocean Botanicals

We like to say, "sea moss is for life". It's rich in nutrients your body craves, easy to add to your diet, and supports long-term health. 

Our mission is to make sea moss available to everyone battling nutrient deficiencies. We're committed to educating our community about sea moss's vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants—key components for gut health, heart health, and overall vitality.

We offer flavored gels, powders, capsules, and raw sea moss to fit the diverse lifestyles of our customers.

Personally, I blend sea moss into my smoothies or use it as a thickening agent in cooking.

I invite you to explore its benefits and embrace it as a cornerstone of your wellness routine. Ocean Botanicals is here to provide the wellness support you need to "unlock a better you".
