What is Blue Green Algae?
Scientifically known as Aphanizomenon flos-aquae or AFA, blue-green algae are most nutrients-rich foods available and commonly found in Klamath Lake, Oregon, USA.
The most amazing discovery of AFA is its unique ability to stimulate the natural production of stem cells from adult bone marrow. 1 gram of AFA is able to enhance the amount of circulating stem cells by 25-30%. The circulating stem cells will assist in the body's natural mechanism to regenerate and repair damaged cells, hence promoting recovery.
Blue-green algae consists of a whole range of nutrients such as:
- almost complete spectrum of vitamins
- essential fatty acids like Omegas-3 and 6
- over 30 macro - and micro - minerals
** Blue-green algae offer the richest natural source of Vitamin A, thus offering powerful anti-oxidant and anti-aging properties without the toxic risks of consuming synthetic Vitamin A.
In addition, AFA contains:
1.) L-selectin
- triggers stem cell's mobilization from bone marrow to areas of damaged cells
- a natural anti-bacterial agent
2.) Phycocyanin (a blue pigment)
- acts as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agents
3.) Phenylethylamine
- promotes the release of endorphin, the 'feel-good' hormone, from the brain.
4.) Chlorophyll
- contributes to the detoxification and cleansing of body
5.) Polysaccharides Complex
- stimulates the immune system
