The World's Healthiest Food Rich in Beta Carotene and
Phytonutrients
by Reiner Hoyer
This tiny aquatic plant offers 60% all-vegetable protein, essential vitamins and
phytonutrients such as the antioxidant beta carotene, the rare essential fatty acid GLA,
sulfolipids, glycolipids and polysaccharides.
Its deep green color comes from its rainbow of natural pigments - chlorophyll (green),
phycocyanin (blue) and carotenoids (orange) - that harvest the sun's energy. Easy-to-
digest so nutrients are absorbed quickly.
The healthiest food is your best defense
The foods we eat are the first line of defense from the negative effects of lifestyle stress,
pollution, radiation and toxic chemicals. Yet so many processed foods are nutritionally
empty. They leave us vulnerable to poor health and low energy.
The good news is many essential nutrients recommended by experts to help protect our
bodies are concentrated in Spirulina. It contains the most powerful combination of
nutrients ever known in any grain, herb or food.
- World's highest beta carotene food reduces long term health risks. Spirulina
beta carotene is ten times more concentrated than carrots. So even if you don't eat
the recommended 4 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables every day (most people
eat only 1-2, including french fries), get your natural beta carotene insurance from
spirulina to help support your body's defenses.
- 60% easy-to-digest vegetable protein without the fat and cholesterol of meat.
People are eating less meat and dairy protein because they want to lower fat,
cholesterol, and chemicals in their diet. Spirulina is the highest protein food with all
the essential amino acids and has only a few calories to keep your waistline where
you want it.
- A rare essential fatty acid is a key to health. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in
mother's milk helps develop healthy babies. Studies show nutritional deficiencies
can block GLA production in your body, so a good dietary source of GLA can be
important. Spirulina is the only other whole food with GLA.
- Iron for women and children's health. Iron is essential to build a strong system,
yet is the most common mineral deficiency. Spirulina is rich in iron, magnesium
and trace minerals, and is easier to absorb than iron supplements.
- High in Vitamin B-12 and B Complex. Spirulina is the highest source of B-12,
essential for healthy nerves and tissue, especially for vegetarians.
- Unusual phytonutrients for health and cleansing. Scientists are discovering the
benefits of polysaccharides, sulfolipids & glycolipids, and the rainbow of natural
pigments that give spirulina a deep green color. Green (chlorophyll), blue
(phycocyanin) and orange (carotenoids) colors collect the sun's energy and power
growth. Chlorophyll is a natural cleanser and is often referred to as nature's green
magic.
