Spirulina is the "must have" green food because of its complete protein content that contains all eight essential amino acids. It's 60% protein content is four times greater than that of beef (which is only 18%)!
In our modern society, where the concept of complete protein is meat and dairy, it is very reassuring to know that greens like Spirulina can provide all the high quality protein and other nutrients needed to sustain our daily needs and well being.
Spirulina is also an excellent alkaline-based natural whole food consumed by humans since historical times!
Spirulina is not a medicine, it is a highly alkaline and rich in phytonutrients whole food created by Mother Nature. When used as a good source of supplementary food, you can avoid nutrient deficiencies causing illness!

BRIEF HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:
Some 3.5 billion years ago, blue-green alga is already the foundation of life on earth, which formed the base of our food chain, as phytoplankton.
As the “Earth’s First Food”, it is the direct result of photosynthesis, the process by which green plants utilize sunlight and transform carbon dioxide and water into oxygen, food and energy.
AFA (Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae) is cultivated in the wild and grows naturally in shallow equatorial lakes such as in the Rift Valley in East Africa and in Mexico. It is normally found in volcanic areas as it thrives on high soda conditions.
Spirulina, on the other hand, is a spiral shaped microscopic blue-green vegetable alga that consists over 70 synergistic nutrients. Spirulina is the preferred species as it is cultivated in a controlled environment without toxic chemicals as an environmentally safe whole food supplement.
As a vegetable plankton, Spirulina generates more oxygen than any other plant, and has been nature's own secret formula for rejuvenation since the dawn of time.
Spirulina has long been a staple food for Mexicans going back to Aztec civilization. Spirulina is also an important food for people in Eastern and Central Africa.
Today, commercial algae farms cultivate Spirulina for millions of people in over 70 countries.
WHAT IS HYDROGEN AND PH LEVEL? CAN SPIRULINA HELP?
Hydrogen is the smallest Critical Element and is capable of passing through the cell wall.
In order for our cells to function they must communicate with each other through electrons but electrons can not move in the body without hydrogen.
Cells must have oxygen but oxygen does not work without hydrogen. Cells cannot multiply or grow without hydrogen.
The very fabric of our being, our DNA, is held together by Hydrogen bonds. When we are born we have plenty of Hydrogen.
As we age or become unwell, our Hydrogen pool becomes depleted. In essence, hydrogen is literally... the fuel of life.
Most people consume diets that are far too acidic consisting of mainly refined foods and meats etc. Soft drinks and most processed fruit drinks are especially acidic. These acidic foods, when routinely ingested will create a pH imbalance in the human body.
To enjoy good health, it is critical for human body to be pH balance. In fact, the pH of your blood must be kept as a precise level (around 7.2 on the pH scale).
Our modern diets is making our pH level way off the desired reading. Continuous eating of pro-acidic food and beverages triggers imbalance in the pH of our body. Our bodies will in turn respond by countering the acidity with behavioral and biochemical strategies that eliminate these excess acids.
Example:
One such strategy for countering excess dietary acids is to increase respiration, since carbon dioxide is acidic and oxygen is alkaline. By breathing in more oxygen and exhaling more carbon dioxide, the body works to regulate its own pH.
This is exactly why diabetics with high blood sugar are frequently seen to be hyperventilating as their blood is too acidic and their bodies are simply trying to get back to the proper pH balance.
Spriulina, especially certififed organic ones are natural and eco-friendly.
It is highly alkaline and contains rich vegetable protein, multi vitamins, minerals, beta- carotene, gamma-Linolein acid (GLA) and also Phycocyanin which can only be found in Spirulina.
So, when you make Spirulina as part of your dietary supplement, it will help to bring your body back to balance and lead to better general health.
What is so special about Spirulina compare to other food supplements?
* Phycocyanin and Chlorophyll *
The blue-green enzyme pigments found in Spirulina help to detoxify your blood and all your organs. These enzymes promote proper digestion, assimilation, normal elimination and fortifies the immune system.
* Amino-Acids *
Spirulina contains all eight essential amino-acids (a complete protein) and eleven non-essentials that include phenylalanine and tryosine which scientists believe acts directly on the appetite centre of your brain and help to satisfy hunger naturally.
* Beta Carotene *
The highest non-toxic source of pro-vitamin A, occurs organically in blue-green algae (Spirulina). Medical research has shown that Beta Carotene unique to Spirulina inhibits tumours, cancerous cells and is considered the single most important nutrient in stimulating and protecting the immune system.
* Rare Carbohydrates *
Cyanophycean, a rare starch occurring in blue-green alga, is identical in composition to glycogen, which is readily absorbed into your blood and promotes normal sugar levels as well as lasting energy and endurance.
* GLA (Gamma Linoleic/Linolenic Acids) *
GLA is also known as OMEGA 3 or OMEGA 6. These are essential fatty acids not found in most foods or supplements. GLA acts as a fuel regulator that moderates calories and balances the body fat. According to research, GLA is known to normalize cholesterol and high blood pressure. It also helps conditions of heart diseases, arthritis, obesity and pre-menstrual stress.
These are rare essential plus a broad spectrum of multi-vitamins (highest known B12), chelated multi-minerals and other important nutrients, inherent in Spirulina provides nutritional insurance against any shortages in your daily diet.
* Phycocyanin *
Scientists and doctors have reported that besides the great nutritional value, Spirulina also contains phycocyanin, a phytonutrient that gives spirulina its dark blue-green colour (phycocyanin is blue and chlorophyll is green).
Phycocyanin has been shown in animal studies to stimulate the production of red blood cells. Spirulina contains a soft cell wall composed of proteins and complex sugars that can be easily digested.
Quotes from World Renowned Organisations* United Nations Organization (UNO) *
in its World Food Conference of 1974 declared Spirulina as “the best food for tomorrow”.*
World Health Organization (WHO) *
has hailed Spirulina as “the greatest food on earth”. In 1992, WHO also commented that “Spirulina is a high quality food product. It is rich in iron and protein. It is safe to consume and an excellent nutrient supplement for Children.
* National Aeronautics Space Administration (USA) *
Scientists from NASA tested and found that 1kg of Spirulina is nutritionally equal to 1,000kgs of assorted vegetables.
* Antenna Technologies
