SPIRULINA
by Professional Botanicals
A Blue-Green Algae Super Green Food
High in Digestible Vegetable Based Protein (amino acids)
High Concentration of Vitamins (especially B Vits) & Minerals
ACTION:
This formula provides an easy to digest source of protein. It has a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals. A form of colloidal (naturally chelated) trace minerals is included. The importance of minerals in our diet is far too often overlooked. Minerals are necessary for 95% of our body’s daily functions. They are life sustaining and without the essential minerals, vitamins cannot be utilized. Many vitamins are produced by the body; minerals are not and must come from our diet. There are some food supplements that provide a simple form of protein to digest. Spirulina and Alfalfa are examples of simple protein forms. Our product, Spirulina, contains the necessary trace minerals for a healthy body. It also provides a broad spectrum of naturally occurring ‘B’ vitamins and other needed nutrients. Our Spirulina contains over 70 trace minerals. The minerals are from an ancient inland sea-bed. It also contains whole, unprocessed, plant source nutrients. They are concentrated by nature not in a laboratory. It includes chlorophyll, B Vitamins, trace minerals and protein.
INDICATIONS MAY INCLUDE: Protein deficiency, mineral deficiency, hair loss, brittle finger nails, poor skin color and cellular breakdown. Spirulina supplements can support people who would like to supplement their normal diet with additional protein, beta-carotene, phycocyanin, B-complex vitamins, chlorophyll, vitamin E and various minerals.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
SPIRULINA (Arthrospira platensis): Spirulina has been on the planet over 3 billion years. It still grows wild and abundantly around the world in very alkaline, mineral-rich, largely pollution-free, soda lakes. It is a blue-green edible algae. It is a natural whole food that has nourished people in many countries around the world for centuries. It was consumed by the Aztecs over five centuries ago. Spirulina health benefits have been demonstrated over a long history of safe human consumption and this super green food is considered one of the world’s healthiest foods because it contains a powerful combination of nutrients. Although Spirulina has been eaten by people for centuries, it was only approximately 30 years ago that scientists rediscovered this amazing super food and have since produced hundreds of scientific studies about Spirulina health benefits. Spirulina is safe for both people and animals and provides excellent whole-body nourishment. It is more than 60% protein and is 95% digestible. Spirulina health benefits include the antioxidant support of beta-carotene, gamma linolenic acid, known for helping to promote joint health, as well as proteins, amino acids, iron, magnesium, and other minerals, vitamin B-12 and B complex and other essential vitamins, the essential fatty acid GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), and the cleansing and detoxifying power of chlorophyll, among other benefits. Iron in Spirulina is 60% better absorbed than ferrous sulfate and other complements.
Some of the health benefits of Spirulina are:
- Encouraging weight loss
- Counteracting toxins in the body
- Helping purify the liver
- Increasing mental alertness
- Lowering blood cholesterol and excess triglycerides
- Helping fight viral infections
- Treating radiation sickness
- Enhancing ability to generate new blood cells
- Improving blood sugar problems
- Strengthening the nervous system
- Strengthening the immune system
- Removing toxic metals such as lead and mercury from the body
- Improving healing of wounds
BARLEY GRASS: Young barley grass is one of a group of 'green' or super foods, along with wheat grass and blue green algae, that are characterized by their emerald green hues signaling the presence of high concentrations of chlorophyll. Medicinal and dietary benefits such as good cholesterol and blood pressure levels, and improved immune response are attributed in part to chlorophyll.2 Barley grass is a very nutrient dense food, providing a high concentration of minerals, vitamins and amino acids per serving, much closer nutritionally to dark, green, leafy vegetables than the grains they will become as they grow. A single tablespoon contains a day's supply of beta-carotene, betaine, biotin, boron, copper, iron, lutein, magnesium, niacin, riboflavin, and thiamine. It also contains nutritionally significant amounts of alpha-linoleic acid, oryzanol, potassium, selenium, zinc, and the tocopherols that make up vitamin E. 3. It is an excellent nutrient source for children and adults. In addition to high nutrient content, cereal grasses offer unique digestive enzymes that help to resolve indigestible and toxic substances in food. Also present is the anti-oxidant enzyme super-oxide dismutase (SOD) and the special fraction P4D1. Both of these substances slow cellular deterioration and mutation and are therefore useful in the treatment of degenerative disease and in the reversal of aging.
TRACE MINERAL 74: This is a very broad spectrum of organically bound trace minerals. Since it is derived from an ancient inland sea-bed consisting of composted seaweed and crustacean marine life, it is superior to the usual volcanic ash trace minerals which are not organic. Trace Min 74 can be utilized by the body much more efficiently because of the organic binding and natural chelating properties of these minerals.
ALFALFA (Medicago sativa): The Alfalfa plant sends its roots down 50 feet. Therefore, Alfalfa is able to draw many minerals to it, making it one of the richest mineral foods grown. Alfalfa also has high chlorophyll content and is very high in vitamin K.

Obtaining Optimum Results:
For optimum results the key word is commitment. Unlike prescription and OTC medications which may cause an immediate response in the body, herbal and nutrient therapy can be a slower process. Commitment to a regular daily supplement schedule is vital, as well as a commitment to taking supplements over a period of time, which could be anywhere from several weeks to several months. This allows enough time for the nutrients and herbs to facilitate change and repair in the body at a cellular level and bring about the desired results.
How the Body Heals:
When taking certain products, you may feel worse before you begin to feel better, and this is more likely with Detox Products. As you move towards balance by adding herbal and nutritional supplements to your lifestyle, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process, and to set the stage for regeneration, the body could begin to eliminate toxic residues which may have built up over many years. As the nutrients and herbs promote optimum cellular function, old tissues are replaced with new. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house (detoxify), you may experience headache, flu-like symptoms or fatigue. This can be relieved by DRINKING LOTS OF WATER and, if necessary, cutting back on your supplements to allow the body to adjust more slowly and comfortably.
