Unique Spirulina Pacifica strain evolved in
Hawaiian sun
Kona, Hawaii is the sunniest coastal
location in the US.
Hawaii's intense sunshine promotes an abundance of phytonutrients.
Thousands of generations of Spiruliina in Hawaii have given birth to a
unique,
beta carotene-rich strain known as Spirulina Pacifica.
Ocean Source Minerals and Trace Elements
From a depth of 2000 feet, they bring ultra
pure ocean water up and feed it directly to their ponds.
This vital resource provides a rich mixture of calcium, magnesium and
trace elements -
92 different minerals in all.
Patented Ocean-Chill Drying
Ocean Chill Drying insures a superior
carotene profile,
reducing by 80% the losses normally associated with drying.
Glass packaging - not plastic
Glass prevents oxidation and the loss of key
nutrients.
(#2 plastic readily leaks oxygen)
Glass prevents the impairment of the fresh Spirulina taste &
the destruction of key antioxidant nutrients like beta carotene caused
by oxidation.
Spirulina
When the headline Spirulina:
New
Diet
Aid appeared in a national publication in Sept., 1981,
the world first took notice. Within two months the Spirulina
market in the U.S. skyrocketed!
Spirulina is now a staple in many supplements,
since it is so rich in beta carotein, other nutrients, protein.
It is thereby very filling, and satisfies hunger.
Spirulina is a great source of
protein.
And therefore, it is great
for vegetarians.
In fact, Spirulina belongs in every diet.
The spirulina flakes are great for adding to smoothies, and the tablets
are great for chewing
(unless you don't like green teeth - in that case, you better swallow).
Combine with other foods:
Mixed with other foods, spirulina flakes (or
powder) can add many nutrients to your diet.
Add it to popcorn, eggs, soups, brown rice dishes, pasta, or use your
imagination. Adding Spirulina to any food can increase its flavor,
nutrient value & balance.
Spirulina tastes good (for some of us)!
Spirulina is so rich in protein that if you were
to drink some flakes, or powder,
or chew on some tablets, you might find that you get sort of a cheesy
kind of feeling in your mouth. What is a cheesy feeling ? Well it's
sort of a protein feeling,
the same kind of feeling one gets when one also eats a nut very high in
protein,
such as the pignolia (pine nut), the black walnut, or the macadamea
nut.
Protein powder can produce a similar effect.
