Enndo Origins: A Family Tradition
The story of Enndo weaves together the rich history of my Irish and Jamaican heritage, two coastal cultures deeply connected to the land and sea. On one side, my ancestors lived along the wild, wind-swept shores of Ireland, where they harvested nutrient-rich sea moss from the cold Atlantic waters. For generations, sea moss was a staple in their diet and medicine, revered not only for its nutritional value but also for its healing properties. On the other side, my Jamaican roots connect me to a vibrant tradition of natural remedies, where the tropical waters of the Caribbean offered their own bounty of health-boosting plants and herbs. Both cultures share a profound respect for the gifts of the ocean and the wisdom of natural healing.
Growing up, I was fortunate to experience both of these worlds. Summers in Ireland were spent with my grandparents, gathering sea moss from the rocky coastline, carefully drying it under the sun, and listening to stories of its medicinal powers passed down through generations. Meanwhile, my Jamaican family instilled in me a deep appreciation for holistic well-being, as they used the island’s plants and remedies to promote health and vitality. The sea moss my Irish grandmother collected and the natural remedies of my Jamaican ancestors formed a bridge between these two worlds, shaping my understanding of the body’s connection to nature.
A Return to Roots
Years later, I found myself living in a bustling city, far removed from the tranquil shores of my youth. The fast-paced urban lifestyle took a toll on my health, leaving me feeling drained and disconnected from the natural world. Seeking a way to restore balance, I remembered the sea moss of my childhood, a remedy both Irish and Jamaican cultures had valued for its restorative properties. After searching for it in local stores to my dismay, I found that most of what was available was either poorly sourced or heavily processed, lacking the purity and potency I remembered.
Determined to reconnect with this natural treasure, I reached out to my family in Ireland, sourcing the same wild-crafted sea moss from the pristine Atlantic waters. The results were immediate, my energy surged, my health improved, and I felt more in tune with myself, as if I had rediscovered a long-lost secret. This return to my roots, both Irish and Jamaican, awakened in me a passion to share this powerful, healing resource with others.
Why Ireland?
While my Jamaican heritage also honours the sea, the specific variety of seaweed (Chondrus Crispus) that thrives in the cold waters off the Irish coast is particularly potent and nutrient-dense. The unique conditions of the North Atlantic—its mineral-rich waters, cooler temperatures, and sustainable harvesting methods—ensure that the sea moss sourced from this region is of the highest quality. By partnering with local, eco-conscious harvesters in Ireland, I can ensure that Enndo offers sea moss that is pure, organic, and hand-picked with care, just as my ancestors did generations ago.
The Birth of Enndo
Inspired by my personal journey and the legacy of both my Jamaican and Irish families, I launched Enndo with a mission to bring the finest organic sea moss to people seeking natural ways to enhance their well-being. Each batch of our sea moss is sustainably harvested, preserving its natural nutrients and healing properties. Our commitment to quality and tradition reflects the values passed down from both sides of my heritage: respect for nature, care for community, and a dedication to holistic health.

Today, we proudly share this gift of nature with the world, ensuring that each person who uses our sea moss and sea moss products can experience its transformative benefits just as I did.
The Name Enndo - A Journey from within
During a period of intense soul-searching, I found myself drawn to the concept of inner balance and harmony. I realized that my journey with sea moss had not only been about physical wellness but also about an inward journey, a quest to find alignment within myself.
Enndo for me suggests going inward, exploring the depths of the self, and emerging stronger and more balanced. the word "end," not in the sense of a final destination, but as a place of ultimate understanding, The name Enndo feels powerful and evocative, a perfect blend of inner peace and strength. The name Enndo emphasizes that our sea moss products are not just about external health, but about fostering an internal journey, one that helps people reach their own personal "Enndo," a state of balance and well-being that comes from within.
The more I sat with the name "Enndo," the more I realized its layers of meaning. "Enndo" symbolizes the end of imbalance and the beginning of a harmonious life. It represents the idea that true wellness comes from within and that by nurturing our inner selves, we can achieve a greater sense of peace and fulfilment in our outer lives.
The double "n" in the name also became significant to me. It reflects the duality of the journey—both inward and outward. It’s a reminder that the process of reaching one’s "Enndo" is not a straight path but a dynamic and evolving experience. Just as the ocean has its tides, our lives have their ebbs and flows, and it is through these cycles that we grow.
