Blue-green algae is a completely natural wholefood, which is easily absorbed by the body, unlike many mineral and vitamin supplements. Low in calories, sodium and cholesterol, it has more calcium than milk, more protein than meat, more iron than spinach and more beta carotene than carrots. Widely used in easily-available supplement form by doctors and complementary health practitioners to boost the body's natural defences, it has eased the crippling symptoms of degenerative diseases such as MS, ME, Alzheimer's Disease and arthritis, and has been shown to be a proven, powerful detoxificant. It is ideal for vegetarian diets, and is widely recognised as a natural power-supplement for sportspeople; research is also being carried out worldwide into blue-green algae's efficacy for relieving symptoms of cancer and AIDS.
