What is Phycocyanin ? About 14% of Spirulina is a protein complex called Phycocyanin which means ‘algae-blue’, and is found only in blue-green algae. It evolved a billion years before chlorophyll. It may be the precursor to chlorophyll and haemoglobin,before it has both magnrsium and iron at its core. Phycocyanin may be the origin of life common to both plants and animals. Research shows it stimulates the immune system, builds both red and white blood cells and as sists detoxification. Chinese scientists claim phycocyanin regulates production of white blood cells even when bone marrow cells are damaged by toxic chemicals or radiation. Every one is familiar with chlorophyll. It is present in all green plants.What is the role of chlorophyll ? Spirulina has one of nature’s highest levels of chlorophyll – about 1% by weight. It’s sometimes called ‘green blood’ because it looks like the blood haemoglobin molecule. Blood has iron at its core , giving it a red colour, and chlorophyll...
King of Adaptogens One of nature’s great mysteries is the adaptogenic quality of certain plants. Key word – adapt. Imagine a plant that is able to provide you with the right healing nudge, in the right amount, at the right time, in the right direction. Science has not been able to duplicate this confounding yet therapeutic action in any pharmaceutical agent. Only one in 300 herbs is an adaptogen. Rhodiola rosea, Eleuthero (once known as Siberian ginseng) and Astragalus are high potency adaptogenic herbs that are known in Traditional Chinese Medicine for giving you what you need: enhancing energy you if you’re stagnant, calming you if you’re irritable and wired. An adaptogenic botanical for blood pressure will help reduce it for those with high blood pressure, and yet, taken by someone else with low blood pressure, the plant offers a gentle boost. An adaptogen for cholesterol will help boost the good (HDL) without raising the bad (LDL) cholesterol. Red Reishi is n...
How does Spirulina strengthen our immune system? Spirulina is a powerful tonic for the immune system. Scientific theory states that the prime derivative of our body’s metabolism is to support our immune system. When our immune system is stressed or suffering , it draws on our body’s metabolic energy. People with immune system imbalance often feels chronic fatigue and low energy. Scientific studies confirm that Spirulina improves immune system function. Medica l scientists have discovered that , it not only stimulates the immune system, it actually enhances the body’s ability to generate new blood cells.Important parts of the immune system, bone marrow stem cells, macrophages, T-cells and natural killer cells,spleen and thymus glands – all shows enhanced activity. Both scientific research and the experience of thousands of peoples indicate that Spirulina is an immune regulating food supplement. Small amount can help balance and stabilize immune system, freeing up our metabolic ...
