Product Name OCTOPUS
Scientific Name Octopoda
Product Details The octopus is a boneless sea creature that has fascinated people for centuries — both on and off their plate. It’s an important protein source in coastal communities around the world and is considered a delicacy by many cultures.
As a folk remedy it’s thought to cure impotence and heighten sexual libido. While research doesn’t back up these claims, scientists note that some nutrients in octopus can benefit reproductive health.
The octopus has a unique biology that has spurred a large body of ongoing research. Known as the chameleon of the sea, an octopus can change shape and color, regrow its limbs, and has multiple hearts and brains.
While studies continue to look into potential benefits of eating octopus, many point to the health-boosting effects found in its nutrients — including some that our diets often lack.
