From Sustainability to Self: How the Ocean Taught Me That Food Is Medicine

🌕 Sturgeon Moon Reflections – A Portal for Nourishment & Change

This August, the Sturgeon Moon rises in the glow of the Lion’s Gate Portal—an ancient astronomical alignment of the Earth, Sun, Sirius, and Orion’s Belt. In many traditions, this is a time for vision, renewal, and aligning our choices with the future we wish to create.

For Seatopia, it’s a reminder that personal nourishment and planetary regeneration are inseparable.

Our founder, James Arthur, shares how his journey from sustainable seafood advocate to food-as-medicine advocate revealed a deeper truth: focusing on clean, nutrient-dense seafood not only transforms human health—it accelerates the shift to regenerative aquaculture that heals our oceans.

And if you’re looking to mark this rare alignment with something sacred at your table, consider:
💎 Salmon Roe (Caviar) – Nature’s Multivitamin →
Revered by traditional cultures, rich in DHA, EPA, and micronutrients, and sourced from farms that restore marine ecosystems.
