Spirulina: nature’s richest superfood
06/30/2010 Stress, a poor diet and environmental pollutants can take a toll on our bodies, making a good nutritional intake essential to our health and energy levels. If you feel that something is missing in your diet, think about this....imagine an organic wholefood that contains:
- Over 100 vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential nutrients
- 50 times more iron than spinach
- 10 times more calcium than milk
- Highest natural level of vitamin B12
- Rich in essential fatty acids including gamma-linolenic acid
- High levels of vitamin E
Spirulina is an aquatically grown micro-algae, containing high levels of easily absorbed natural antioxidants including chlorophyll, phycocyanin and betacarotene. These are the best natural cell protectors we can get and are especially important with our modern lifestyle and the environmental pollutants and stresses we are subjected to every day.
Spirulina and Weight Loss
Spirulina is approximately 65-70% protein which is comprised of amino acids. Amino acids specficially related to weight loss include phenylalanine, valine and arginine, which assist in reducing the appetite by inducing a full or satisfied feeling.* So no hunger pangs! Also, craving for calorie-loaded sweets is reduced by spirulina’s levels of chromium, which has a valuable role in metabolising sugars.
* Please use in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet for optimum results
