Blue green algae are comprised of over 1,500 species of microscopic aquatic plants that appeared on this planet over 3 billion years ago. All forms of life have since evolved from them. They provide 90% of the oxygen for this planet. They have been responsible for sustaining a multitude of plants and animals. Sprirulina is a speciies of the blue green algae group.
Spirulina is a naturally occurring food which consists of at least 60% vegetable protein. It also contains the most extraordinary concentration of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and nutrients. It contains more functional nutrients than in any other plant, grain, food or herb known to man.
As a naturally occurring ‘Superfood', Spirulina could be considered the most fully comprehensive insurance policy for any deficiencies found in the diet. The structure of this plant enables it to be more easily digested than raw fruit and vegetables. Those undertaking weight loss programmes may find it particularly useful as a nutritional building block.
WHY TAKE SPIRULINA BLUE GREEN ALGAE?
Protein is required by the body for growth and repair. Spirulina offers 60%-70% protein without the fat and cholesterol content of red meat, which contains only 25% protein. Rich in chlorophyll (a pigment found in green plants which absorbs light and converts into energy), this naturally occurring plant could be considered as the building block for life itself. Spirulina's plant structure is easily digested by the body resulting in a faster conversion of food to energy.
It also contains over 100 nutrients including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, carotenoids, trace elements and all the essential amino acids.
Spirulina also contains:
Enzymes - which play a crucial role in metabolic function and therefore energy levels. Numerous vitamins - particularly B12, often lacking in strict vegetarian and vegan diets. Beta carotene - the content is 10 times greater than found in carrots. Minerals - such as iron and magnesium which can be easily taken into the cells of the body after digestion and absorption. Essential Fatty Acids - such as Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) Product Information: Each tablet contains 500mg Spirulina
