One of the most fertile trends in nutritional supplements can be
summed up in the words "Green Superfoods", which have long been popular with a
small group of aficionados but now are riding on a wave of media and consumer
interest into a wider market. Low in the food chain, Green Superfoods have
developed over billions of years to become among the most nutritionally
concentrated of foods known to man, rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids,
essential fatty acids, enzymes, phytonutrients and anti-oxidants. These
elements work together synergistically and help to nourish and protect the body
from the intensifying, environmental and dietary onslaught of modern living.
Some say that Green Superfoods are the most natural and comprehensive of
dietary supplements, combining nutritional components in a way which is too
complex to replicate in the laboratory. The most potent of these wonder foods
are Upper Klamath Algae, Spirulina and Chlorella. We have put these three Green
Superfoods together in one product - our Green Synergy. This has been developed
at the request of some of our practitioner customers who want the broadest
spectrum of nutritional support for their patients.
Upper Klamath
Algae is the perfect, anabolic green food, containing all the essential amino
acids, a complete spectrum of organically bound vitamins, minerals and
Essential Fatty Acids and a host of powerful antioxidants, including
Chlorophyll, Beta Carotene and Vitamin B12 to help the body detoxify naturally.
This algae enhances physical and mental well-being and is America's biggest
selling organic, unprocessed micronutrient. It was elected best body tonic by
Family Circle magazine.
Spirulina helps protect us with its
antioxidants which guard the body's cells against the damaging effect of free
radicals. Another plant pigment, phycocyanin, as has been shown in research,
may stimulate the activity of lymphocyte blood cells. Another ingredient, the
so-called anti-ageing, antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase (SOD), is found
in every cell of the body. Studies have shown that it can help repair damaged
DNA, the building blocks of our bodies.
Chlorella is the richest
known source of chlorophyll, which prevents germs developing, speeds wound
healing and acts as an immunity booster and tonic. As a detoxifier, it has been
shown to help neutralise the effect of some cancer-causing chemicals. Chlorella
also contains a complex molecule found in its cell wall, which like
chlorophyll, binds with heavy metals, like cadmium and lead, to carry them
safely out of the body. Chlorella also contains growth factor (CGF), so called
because it has been found to encourage growth in children and it seems to help
maintain the immune system and healing process.
These cold-pressed
tablets are free from preservatives, gluten, added sugar and artificial colour
and are certified free from pesticides and herbicides. The only added
ingredients are totally inert and are necessary to produce a uniform,
non-brittle tablet which will disintegrate to compulsory, BP (British
Pharmacopoeia) standards. |
