WHAT IS SPIRULINA? Spirulina is the Richest Whole Food Source Found in Nature line • A highly nutritious, microscopic freshwater plant. • The superfood with over 100 nutrients, more than any other plant, grain or herb. • Widely used as a food supplement for maintaining health, energy, weight loss and cleansing programs. • Protein - 60-70% of its weight. 300% more protein than fish, meat or poultry, with no cholesterol. • Iron - 58x richer than spinach in bi-available iron. • Vitamin B12 - Natures richest source. Often lacking in a vegetarian diet. • Chlorophyll - 2x richer than barley grass or wheatgrass. • Anti-oxidants - 25x richer in beta-carotene than carrot and 3x richer in Vitamin E than wheatgerm. • Spirulina assists weight loss by curbing appetite naturally while supplying a full range of nutrients needed for a balanced diet. • As an unrefined wholefood, spirulina is absorbed up to 16x more effectively than synthetic multi-vitamin and mineral supplements. WHY take Spirulina? Nutritionally Complete Synergy Spirulina contains the complete Vitamin B complex group and many important anti-oxidants (cell protectors). It is the richest natural source of Vitamin E and Beta Carotene. Other anti-oxidants present are Phycocyanin, mixed Carotenoids, Selenium, Zinc as well as vast array of trace elements and minerals. Phycocyanin, a rare blue pigment is a powerful immune stimulant. Vitamin B12 and iron are two nutrients commonly lacking especially in most vegetarian diets. Supplementing daily with Spirulina will help fill in these nutritional gaps. Extra Energy The reason spirulina is so green is also why spirulina is so good for you. Synergy Spirulina contains large quantities of chlorophyll and phycocyanin. Chlorophyll traps sunlight to create energy and gives that energy back to you. If you find you need a little extra energy to get through the day, Synergy Spirulina may be the key for you. Natural Vs. Synthetic The single most important factor in determining the effectiveness of any nutritional supplement, is the body’s ability to absorb those nutrients. Most multi-vitamin/mineral formulations are predominately laboratory synthesised. Over 50 clinical studies have shown that organic nutrients are absorbed up to 16x more effectively than synthetic ones. Synergy Spirulina contains just pure organic nutrients exactly as they occur in their natural form. Unlike synthetic supplements the vitamins, co-vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, enzymes, co-enzymes and essential fatty acids all work together to ensure maximum assimilation and utilisation. Nothing has been added, and nothing removed but the water. If you are moving away from empty processed food and chemical vitamins to natural foods, start using Synergy Spirulina. Concentrated Protein Amino Acids are the body’s building blocks for proteins, needed for muscle growth, immunity, enzymes and hormones. Synergy Spirulina contains 60-70% protein which provides a complete source of all 8 essential amino acids plus an additional 10 non-essential amino acids. Getting enough of all 8 essential amino acids can be a problem particularly for vegetarians. Essential Fatty Acids Spirulina is a highly concentrated source of essential fatty acids. It is one of a few whole food sources containing omega 3 and 6 fatty acids in the form of Linoleic, Linolenic and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). These fatty acids are especially essential to womens’ good health. Weight Loss Synergy Spirulina is a helpful addition to any sensible weight loss plan, as it contains natural appetite suppressants. Taken half an hour or so before mealtimes, it will help curb your appetite. Spirulina is speedily assimilated so that within minutes a vast array of nutrients are available to the bloodstream. In particular the amino acids phenylalanine and valine help to release an appetite controlling hormone, which gives you the “I feel full” signal. So while Spirulina contains no harmful chemicals or substances which suppress the appetite, it is a way of naturally bringing your appetite into balance.
