Spirulina : The World’s Healthiest Food

Healthy food is your best defense

Foods are the first line of defense against the negative effects of our stressful lifestyle, pollution, chemicals, toxins, and diseases. Due to the way food is prepared these days, many ‘foods’ we eat today are nutritionally deficient. Poor food choices leave us weak and vulnerable to disease.

The good news is that many essential nutrients that help to protect bodies are found and concentrated in Spirulina, which contains the most powerful combination of nutrients found in any grain, herb, or food.

Growing Up with Spirulina

Super Moms’ Testimonies about Spirulina

Alisa Jan Chin is 8 years old. She is a happy and healthy child who, throughout her life, has never needed medication. She has an exceptionally clear and beautiful complexion and is quite tall for her age. One of the secrets to her excellent health is NewLife Spirulina. Since she was 11 months old, we have been giving her 8 bottles of Spirulina drink daily (Each bottle made by mixing 1 heaped tsp of NewLife Spirulina Powder in 8oz of distilled water). NewLife Spirulina was her main source of protein for the first 5 years of her life. – Mrs. Chin

I started taking Spirulina from my 2nd trimester onwards. I was a very selective eater, but Spirulina ensured that I had the proteins that I needed. Not only that, I did not have water retention or any morning sickness. I believe supplementing my meal with a health drink like Spirulina (world’s highest beta carotene food) ensuring my immune system was healthy and strong. I also believe Spirulina gave me an energy boost as I seldom felt tired. Overall, I had a good pregnancy even though I had a low placenta. Thank God and NewLife! – Carol Marcus

(the eldest daughter of Michael and Debi Pearl, the authors of the best-selling book. “To Train Up a Child” and “Created To Be His Helpmeet”), wrote about Spirulina in “No Greater Joy.” March -April 2006:

“… I would like to tell about something that has proven very beneficial to me. It’s called Spirulina.

Spirulina is a natural food source that has 58 times the iron of raw spinach and 28 times that of raw beef liver. This food was a significant part of the Aztec and Mayan diets. It contains more beta-carotene than any other whole food and is very high in chlorophyll. It is 65% protein and amino acids.

This amazing food is the richest source of natural antioxidants of any whole food, containing every natural, known antioxidant. NASA plans to grow this food on the space station as it is one of the most efficient, oxygen-generating foods in existence. It contains all the B vitamins and is an extraordinary ’’transport” of other vitamins, allowing your body to actually benefit from all the other foods and vitamins you take. It is a blue-green algae that produces all its nutrients by harvesting sunlight….

My first two pregnancies and births were quite hard, and my health was poor. I tried SO many vitamins, pre-natal, and herbal teas to keep myself up and functioning normally. I’m sure most of them helped, but I did not feel or see any difference until I discovered Supermom tabs with Spirulina during my third pregnancy.

For the first few days I detoxed big time, as the Spirulina and vitamins began to flush my body of old toxins; then my journey back to health began. My third pregnancy and birth were so incredibly different than the first two. No water retention, no extra weight gain or bad circulation, and no fatigue. My hair grew thick and shiny (and never fell out after the birth), and my nails became hard for the first time in my life.
I was so changed….” – Rebekah Joy Anast

I had my first 2 boys in my late 20s and early 30s. I also had very low blood pressures and was suffering from all kinds of morning sickness and took medicines all the way till giving birth.

My first two sons were always sick growing up.. .every two weeks I needed to bring them to a clinic. They are now 8 and 9. Last year, I conceived my third baby. Because my first 2 pregnancies were very bad experiences and now I was older, I felt very anxious. I followed Dr. Lynn’s advice in taking 5 Essentials, Spirulina, and some other supplements daily from the 2nd month of my pregnancy. There was not one day of discomfort throughout my pregnancy.

With Spirulina, I was so energetic, running around and handling my two boys. It was such a breeze. Laura is now 11 months old, growing strong and healthy, and has not taken any medicine since birth. Guess what? I am feeding her Spirulina already. Spirulina certainly helps develop healthy babies. – Rosemary Chia

Jasmine Leong, Sabah State and National swimmer, took Spirulina to help provide energy and increase stamina before any training or competition. She represented Malaysia in the 90s at the Asia-Pacific Junior Swimming Championships in S. Korea and won Malaysia a silver medal.

Now knowing the benefits of Spirulina alone is not enough

For we must be fully aware of the quality of the Spirulina that we consume.

Are you getting your money’s worth?
Or are you being short-changed?
How can you be sure you are consuming Spirulina that is of a superior quality?

Several factors influence the quality and production of Spirulina. Climate, temperature and water supply critically determine its quality. In order to produce a pure culture of Spirulina, close scrutiny must be given to the micro-algae biology and a closed ecology system to prevent algae contamination or heavy metal contamination.

NewLife Nature’s Gift Spirulina is sourced from one of the world’s finest Spirulina-producing companies. For more than a quarter of a century, our supplier has been operating 3 sophisticated Spirulina farms with a production capacity of 1,000 tons per year.

This makes them the world’s largest Spirulina producers.

Each harvest is tested to ensure premium quality Spirulina. A comparison analysis between NewLife Nature’s Gift Spirulina and other sources reveals the higher quality of NewLife’s Spirulina.

Remarks:

Sample A did not have sufficient Total Carotenoids and Phycocyanin compared to NewLife™ Spirulina, owing to degradation of the product potency by oxidization.

Sample B not only had an insufficient level of Total Carotenoids, but it also carries Coliform, an indication of poor sanitation during the production process. Also, both Sample A and B have a greater level of Total Pheophorbide, which could be the initiator of photosensitivity. NewLife Spirulina, on the other hand, demonstrated a higher quality of these elements in many aspects. It scored highest in all phytonutrients, such as Total Carotenoids, Chlorophyll, and Phycocyanin, and possessed the lowest Pheophorbide content. In addition, it also carries an independent certification declaring that it is free from Microcystin toxins.

Research suggests that 3 to 10 grams of Spirulina a day will provide significant health benefits. Daily use is extremely beneficial. Capsules and tablets allow convenient consumption anytime. Many enjoy Spirulina powder mixed in their fruity yogurt smoothie as a power-packed breakfast!
