The Effectiveness Of Spirulina Is Endorsed By 20,000 Doctors |
SPIRULINA contains a type of blue pigment called Phycocyanin, making it look blue in colour. According to the classification system of plant food group, spirulina is spiral in shape, which gives it its name. It is also known as the 'blue green algae'. Currently there are around 35 types of Spirulina including Calothrix brevissima, Tolypothrix tenuis, Aulosira fertillissima, Anaba-circularis etc. However, only those with larger dimensions, stronger replicative capabilities and higher protein content are classified into the food group.
Spirulina with larger dimensions which can be consumed by humans are: Arthropira, Arthropira (Spirulina) Maxima and Arthropira (Spirulina) Platensis. Spirulina's composition of balanced nutrition is perfect for humans because it contains:

GOOD NEWS FOR VEGETARIANS
ELKEN SPIRULINA IS A 100% ALKALINE FOOD
According to Dr. Ragner Berg of the United States:In order to stay healthy, it is essential that our daily meals provide the proper proportion of 80% alkaline food and 20% of acidic food.
Vegetarians cannot obtain sufficient Vitamin B12 as it can only be obtained from animal's liver.
The value of Vitamin B12 in Spirulina is 2.5 times higher than cow's liver, commonly known as the best provided of B12. In other words, it is 250% higher in Vitamin B12.
According to the RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) of the United States, the Intake of Vitamin B12 is around 2mg, and 3 tablets of Elken Spirulina provide more than enough of that amount.
The function of Vitamin B12 :

According to Dr. Ragner Berg of the United States:In order to stay healthy, it is essential that our daily meals provide the proper proportion of 80% alkaline food and 20% of acidic food.
Causes of an Acidic Body Fluid:
1. Insufficient consumption of alkaline food
2. Insufficient supply of alkaline food for body utilisation
20% Acidic Food: Meat, seafood, grains, etc. | 80% Alkaline Food: Fruits and vegetables, milk, algae, etc. |
The healthy body is slightly alkaline (pH7.3 - 7.4) | |

- KOTA KINABALU: “With the declining stockpile of critical antiviral drugs like Tamiflu and increasing reported cases of Influenza A (H1N1), it may be time to search for an entirely natural yet effective alternative to halt this potentially fatal viral infection,” a Japanese world expert on dietary supplement has suggested.
- The facts about fatty liver (The New Straits Time, 16 December 2008)
HERE'S a myth about fatty liver debunked: it is not a disease specific to drinkers or fat people."Thin people or of average build can also get fatty liver. In fact, people can develop fatty liver even if they do not experience any health conditions such as obesity or diabetes," said Dr Yasumasa Kodo, a renowned researcher from Japan."Today, many adults and even children have increased fat in their liver cells, giving rise to fatty liver. The liver is not unlike a garbage disposal. It acts like a filter, refining and detoxifying everything that we eat, breathe and absorb through our skin, and acts as our body's internal chemical power plant," said Dr Kodo.
