Description
What It Does
Deep in the rainforests of Honduras, the Miskito people have used Batana Oil — cold-pressed from the fruit of the American palm (Elaeis oleifera) — for generations to care for their hair and scalp. Rich in oleic acid, tocopherols, and phytosterols, this wild-harvested oil penetrates deeply to restore moisture balance, condition the hair shaft from root to tip, and help protect against environmental damage.
The result? Hair that feels softer, looks shinier, and retains more length over time as breakage is reduced. Batana Oil won't change your hair's genetics — but it gives your strands the nourishment they need to thrive.
Who It's For
This product is ideal for:
- Anyone with dry, damaged, or over-processed hair needing deep moisture
- People experiencing breakage or struggling with length retention
- All hair types — natural, relaxed, color-treated, locs, braids, and transitioning
- Those building a clean, plant-based hair care routine
- Anyone looking for a multi-purpose scalp and hair treatment
- People who prefer single-ingredient, additive-free formulas
Why It's Better
Wild-Harvested from the Source
Sourced directly through partnerships with indigenous Miskito communities in Honduras using traditional cold-press methods — not mass-produced or diluted.
Single-Ingredient Purity
100% pure Batana Oil with no additives, fillers, fragrances, or processing agents. What you see is what you get.
Deeply Penetrating Formula
Unlike surface-coating oils, Batana Oil's fatty acid profile allows it to penetrate the hair shaft rather than just sitting on top — delivering moisture where it's needed most.
Protein-Free
Safe for protein-sensitive hair. Provides moisture and elasticity without the risk of protein overload.
Ethically Sourced
Direct trade sourcing supports community livelihoods and sustainable wild-harvesting practices in Honduras.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
There is so much bad information out there about sea moss gel, written and promoted by companies that sell their products who have created a false narrative. There is no FDA oversight on Sea Moss Gel, and we are trying to change that due to the overwhelming number of companies that do things the wrong way. Here's what set us apart from the bad guys:
1) IF YOUR GEL IS ARRIVING COLD, IT IS OLD STOCK AND POOR QUALITY! Most companies can't keep up with how labor intensive making sea moss gel is. There is no machine that makes it if it's real sea moss, and it has to be made by hand. Because of this, companies make their stock ahead of time and freeze it or keep it refrigerated. They pull their orders from this old stock, which means you're getting old gel. We make ours fresh for your order and immediately ship it. Since it wasn't cold in the first place, and it's fresh, it just needs to be refrigerated upon receipt. You will only get fresh and high quality sea moss from us.
2) WE USE REAL WILD HARVESTED SEA MOSS TO MAKE OUR PRODUCTS! Most companies use wildcrafted, or man-made sea moss to make their gel. You can tell because their gel is always the same texture. Real sea moss varies in texture and color, and you will never get the exact same jar of gel twice when real ingredients are used. We can provide certification to prove we use real sea moss to make our products. Additionally, to save money most other companies add heat to their sea moss to make their gel which allows them to use less moss to make more gel to increase their profit margins. Adding heat to sea moss diminishes the minerals and produces a very low quality product. It creates a consistent thick texture every single time, but it's doing nothing for your health. We never add heat and keep it pure.
3) WE DON'T JUNK UP THE GEL!
Most companies use syrups, dyes, artificial ingredients, and tons of sugar to make their gels taste great. They lie and say they don't and get away with it because there is no FDA oversight. We don't do that, and the way you can tell is that it's not going to taste amazing like Welch's Jelly and Jams. It never should. Sea moss gel is not supposed to be a tasty treat. This is the BIGGEST problem in our industry and how we separate ourselves from the competition. You will feel better taking our gel opposed to others.
Join us to help stop the misinformation of sea moss products and to stop the companies who produce a terrible product from doing business.
There are some good guys out there, but they are becoming harder to find every day because consumers are falling for the "sharks". Feel the difference by trying real sea moss. Know the difference by reading the information contained within our listings.

St. Lucia. We source our sea moss from a sea moss farmer who harvests wild sea moss from the ocean. Our sea moss comes with a certificate from the Ministry of Agriculture in St. Lucia that certifies it is wild harvested. You can have confidence that our products are the real deal and that we do not use or advocate the use of sea moss grown in man-made environments or pools.
Raw sea moss is best used within 1 year. After 1 year, raw moss loses its effectiveness. Sea moss gel has a 30 day shelf life if once you receive it you keep it in the refrigerator. You can freeze sea moss gel for up to 6 months, however you would need to move it into a freezer safe container as glass has a high probability of breaking when frozen.
Yes, all of the ingredients are organic or all natural. We use alkaline water in our gels that don't contain fresh fruit. For our fresh fruit gels, we use spring water. All other ingredients are organic, including our herbs and fresh fruits. We only use organic agave nectar to sweeten those gels that indicate there is a sweetener used in the gel. There are no preservatives or additives in any of our gels.
Absolutely not. When you add heat to sea moss to make gel, not only does it diminish the minerals which make sea moss so great for us, but it also causes a chemical reaction that tells the sea moss to convert into carageenan. Carageenan is not good for you in large quantities, is high in carbohydrates, and it is no longer effective. Many people who sell sea moss will try to convince you that adding heat doesn't negatively effect the sea moss, but its basic chemistry that tells you otherwise. Companies who use heat to make their sea moss gel do so because it's more profitable for them.
Yes, but it should be a fine powder and not iodized salt that is in large crystals like table salt. Anything that has salt water on it and is dried will have a layer of dried sea salt on it.
We currently sell products in the United States. Now we do not offer worldwide shipping.
What is the recommended daily dose of sea moss?
It's best to start small (1-2 tablespoons) and work your way up as your body gets used to it. But as always, check with your healthcare professional or the product guidelines for a more accurate recommendation.
We make sea moss gel fresh to order and ship Monday through Friday. We have a 1-3 business day processing time, meaning your order will ship between 1-3 business days from the day you place your order. We ship everything priority mail, and depending on where you live from Virginia, it can take 3-4 business days to receive your order.
The first step is to take the sea moss on a consistent basis. The timeframe that you’ll see results will vary since everyone’s body will process it differently. We recommend that you monitor your body while taking these amazing products and this will give you a great idea as to how fast it works for you.
