Spirulina - The perfect food to restore our health and our planet

The perfect food to restore our health and our planet- spirulina
The first photosynthetic lifeform was designed by nature 3.6 billion years ago. Blue-green algae, cyanobacteria, is the evolutionary bridge between bacteria and green plants. It contained within it everything life needed to evolve. This immortal plant has renewed itself for billions of years, and has presented itself to us in the last 20 years. Spirulina has 3.6 billion years of evolutionary wisdom coded in its DNA.
 
Does spirulina contain antioxidants? Yes. Is it a probiotic food? You bet! Is it a nutraceutical? That too. Is it loaded with phytochemicals? All kinds. It contains compounds like phycocyanin, polysaccharides, and sulfolipids that enhance the immune system. This superfood has the most remarkable concentration of functional nutrients ever known in any food, plant, grain or herb.
 
On top of this, spirulina delivers more nutrition per acre than any other food on the planet. This has extraordinary implications for more efficient and less damaging food production for the future.
Each day new research brings to light the wonders (hidden) in microscopic algae. In 1989, the National Cancer Institute announced sulfolipids extracted from blue-green algae were 'remarkably active' against the AIDS virus in test tube experiments. Sulfolipids can prevent viruses from either attaching to or penetrating into cells, thus preventing viral infection.
 
Research published from 1991-99 has shown phycocyanin and polysaccharide extracts of spirulina increase macrophage production, bone marrow reproduction, strengthen the immune system and disease resistance in fish, mice, chickens, cats and human cells.
 
Algae is in its infancy as a food, medicine and biochemical resource. Spirulina, a descendant of Earth's first photosynthetic life form, was rediscovered about 35 years ago. Just 20 years ago, it burst into public awareness as a powerful new food with a promise as a food source to help feed the world's people.
 

The World's Healthiest Food
Rich in Beta Carotene and Phytonutrients
This tiny aquatic plant offers 60% all-vegetable protein, essential vitamins and phytonutrients such as the antioxidant beta carotene, the rare essential fatty acid GLA, sulfolipids, glycolipids and polysaccharides. Its deep green color comes from its rainbow of natural pigments - chlorophyll (green), phycocyanin (blue) and carotenoids (orange) - that harvest the sun's energy. Easy-to-digest so nutrients are absorbed quickly.

The healthiest food is your best defense
The foods we eat are the first line of defense from the negative effects of lifestyle stress, pollution, radiation and toxic chemicals. Yet so many processed foods are nutritionally empty. They leave us vulnerable to poor health and low energy. The good news is many essential nutrients recommended by experts to help protect our bodies are concentrated in Spirulina. It contains the most powerful combination of nutrients ever known in any grain, herb or food.

  • World's highest beta carotene food reduces long term health risks.
    Spirulina beta carotene is ten times more concentrated than carrots. So even if you don't eat the recommended 4 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables every day (most people eat only 1-2, including french fries), get your natural beta carotene insurance from spirulina to help support your body's defenses.
  • 60% easy-to-digest vegetable protein without the fat and cholesterol of meat.
    People are eating less meat and dairy protein because they want to lower fat, cholesterol, and chemicals in their diet. Spirulina is the highest protein food with all the essential amino acids and has only a few calories to keep your waistline where you want it.
  • A rare essential fatty acid is a key to health.
    Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in mother's milk helps develop healthy babies. Studies show nutritional deficiencies can block GLA production in your body, so a good dietary source of GLA can be important. Spirulina is the only other whole food with GLA.
  • Iron for women and children's health.
    Iron is essential to build a strong system, yet is the most common mineral deficiency. Spirulina is rich in iron, magnesium and trace minerals, and is easier to absorb than iron supplements.
  • High in Vitamin B-12 and B Complex.
    Spirulina is the highest source of B-12, essential for healthy nerves and tissue, especially for vegetarians.
  • Unusual phytonutrients for health and cleansing.
    Scientists are discovering the benefits of polysaccharides, sulfolipids & glycolipids, and the rainbow of natural pigments that give spirulina a deep green color. Green (chlorophyll) , blue (phycocyanin) and orange (carotenoids) colors collect the sun's energy and power growth. Chlorophyll is a natural cleanser and is often referred to as nature's green magic.

Use spirulina's longevity to benefit your health.
This superfood of the 1990s is not a synthetic laboratory brew. This immortal life form has been renewing itself for over 3.5 billion years. Through history, this remarkable aquatic plant has nourished people in Africa and America. Today, spirulina is consumed by health conscious people all over the world. If you are moving away from empty processed food and chemical vitamins to natural foods, start using spirulina, nature's longest living food.

Clean green energy is good for everyone
Spirulina is the most extensively researched food microalgae, well documented in numerous books, journal articles, and periodicals. Many people use Spirulina in their own self-care strategy for more energy, nutritional insurance, weight control and cleansing. Perfect in between or before meals for good nutrition without the heaviness of bulky food. Athletes discover more endurance and strength. Seniors find better nutrient absorption. Ideal and safe for children, pregnant and nursing mothers. Easy to take anytime for more vitality
The experience of long time consumers and the scientific evidence suggest that 3 to 10 grams a day will provide significant health benefits. Daily use is most beneficial. Tablets or capsules are convenient anytime, between, before, or with meals. Many enjoy mixing Spirulina powder in a green fruit juice smoothie as an instant breakfast, or a vegetable juice smoothie in the afternoon.

Feel the power of Spirulina in your life
Feel good inside and look good outside. Add it to your daily diet to supplement the power of the good foods you eat. Lean on it when you can't eat, or don't eat, the foods you should. Do it soon and start feeling wonderful right away.
