| Summary: | Seaweeds are rich in macronutrients, micronutrients, and bioactive components and have great potential as sustainable resources in terms of both production and consumption of a desirable food. Still, the seaweed aquaculture industry's rapid growth points out challenges that need to be taken into consideration when assessing environmental integrity, animal, and human health. In this review, the seaweed aquaculture's potential impact on the wildlife and human welfare and the environmental integrity has been evaluated using the One Health approach, a principle in which human, animal, and environmental health outcomes are considered as strictly connected. This is the first effort to implement the One Health concept into the seaweed cultivation assessment, and it is meant to give new perspectives for the growth of this industry.
