Product Research & Development
It is important that the enormity of the possibilities that algae can offer to humanity, be fully exploited and harnessed. Some of our goals are to present the evidence in a way that:
Allows ordinary people to begin to grasp the remarkable amount of health-related evidence that supports the use of algae as a dietary supplement
Provides the kind of scientific evidence that is required for scientist and doctors to understand the potential therapeutic uses of algae and thereby encourage further research and clinical application.
A hundred years ago, during the reign of medicinal herbs and natural remedies, this simple blue green algae might have been a household name had it been known. It would have acquired its reputation for being a food that, when taken in small quantities, gave one added energy and mental clarity, boosted energy levels and protected the immune system, and had a remarkable restorative effect
The history and the development of modern medicine are most certainly fascinating. Many people assume that the current mainstream medical view is the culmination of centuries of experimentation and knowledge, yielding the best possible understanding of health. Unfortunately, it is not so. Historically medicine has been a story of opposition between conflicting views regarding health and disease.
The path medicine has taken has been determined too often by events and circumstances. One such event that drastically shaped today’s medicine was the acceptance of Pasteur’s work over that of Bernard, one of the pioneers in the theory that the whole body, or the terrain, is the determining factor in health.
Bernard held that if the terrain were well maintained by proper nutrition and strong immunity, diseases would not develop. On the other hand Pasteur – who provided the evidence of a ubiquitous world – suggested that the root cause of all disease is the introduction of bacteria into the body, regardless of the terrain.
There is however much evidence indicating that the best synergy is achieved when eating natural foods. One such natural, food with astonishing bio-modulating effects are the naturally occurring blue-green algae.
