Q & A about Whole Food Supplements
  

Q: What is whole food nutrition and why is it so valuable? A: Whole food nutrition works in a balanced, natural way by giving the body everything it needs to unleash its own powerful self healing abilities. Since whole foods are created by nature, all of their parts work together to build up the body's health from the inside out. This is very different from isolated nutrients or from medicines which target one specific symptom and do not benefit the overall health of the body. Q: Can't I just take vitamins? A: Vitamin and mineral supplements are often synthetic and our bodies do not even recognize them as food. Reports of portable toilet maintenance personnel reveal that vast numbers of supplements pass through the digestive tract intact. They even tell of being able to read the brand names on the synthetic supplements. Q: What's the best whole food source? A: Aphanizomenon flos aquae (AFA), a wild-grown species of blue green algae. Farming practices of the last 100 years have resulted in depleted soils and nutritionally empty food. Blue green algae, on the other hand, is a natural, whole food containing more than 70 micro-nutrients necessary for vibrant health. It grows like blades of grass in a mineral-rich, freshwater lake in southern Oregon. It's harvested wild and immediately frozen, retaining 97% of its nutrients. It's available in capsules, tablets, and powder. Q: What does it do? A: It provides us with nutrients no longer contained in our every day food due to effects of soil depletion, over-processing, etc. When nutritional gaps are met, our bodies naturally shift to a higher level of functioning. Commonly reported benefits are: Increased Energy Sounder Sleep Natural Weight Control Stronger Immune System Improved Digestion Better Concentration and Mood A Sense of Well-Being Enhanced Mental Clarity Improved Athletic Performance Q: How do I know this is safe? A: We know of no other food on the market today which is tested as extensively as Blue Green Algae. It is tested far beyond governmental requirements. Our harvester is absolutely committed to exceptional quality in all of its products.
