Second, digestion requires energy…lots of it. And the more energy it takes to digest food, the less that’s available for other physical and mental activities. Digestion of enzyme-deficient food is especially hard on the body, sapping its natural vitality and feelings of well-being. But there is a way to optimize the nutritional value received from food.

Simplexity Health’s Super Blue Green® Enzymes contain natural food enzymes to help the body break down fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and fiber, and to help enhance the digestive process.* Each 360 mg capsule is microblended with 25 mg of Super Blue Green Alpha Sun, adding specific vitamins and minerals that many enzymes need for optimum ability to function.

Surveys show that 80% of North Americans fail to get optimal amounts of fruits and vegetables in their daily diets, as recommended by the USDA and the National Cancer Institute. Consuming “green foods” (nutrient-dense, minimally processed, whole foods) is an important way to achieve a healthy diet. But what makes green foods so great? Chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants, is essential in the photosynthesis reactions that convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy for life processes. Inside the cells of green plants, chlorophyll combines with carbon dioxide and sunlight to form simple sugars. Without chlorophyll, plants would be unable to perform essential metabolic functions such as respiration and growth.

In 1913 Dr. Richard Willstätter, a German chemist, discovered the role of chlorophyll in plant functions, and noted the structural similarity between chlorophyll and heme, the red pigment in blood responsible for transporting oxygen to all parts of the body. Both molecules have complex structures, called porphyrin rings, consisting of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Heme (the oxygen-carrying part of the hemoglobin molecule) differs from chlorophyll primarily by the central atom; iron (Fe) in heme and magnesium (Mg) in chlorophyll.

Given the similarity between chlorophyll and heme, could the body directly convert chlorophyll into heme by replacing the central atom? As attractive an idea as that might be, there is no direct evidence that the human body can do this. There is, however, considerable research and anecdotal evidence that chlorophyll is effective in rebuilding the blood, through metabolic processes that are not yet completely understood.

Due to its natural deodorizing ability, chlorophyll has traditionally been used as a mouthwash and gargle. Chlorophyll has been shown to stimulate liver function and excretion of bile, strengthen immunity, and detoxify chemical pollutants. Numerous recent studies have also indicated that chlorophyll has anti-carcinogenic and anti-mutagenic properties.

Chlorophyll is found in highest concentrations in green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, and in cereal grasses like wheat grass and barley grass, but the highest concentration is found in SBGA. Given all the potential benefits of adding chlorophyll, why not consider adding more “green” to your diet?

Super Blue Green Algae - Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (abbreviated Aph. flos-aquae) from Upper Klamath Lake - is a species of cyanobacteria and, as such, exhibits a unique blend of some properties of plants, animals, and bacteria. Cyanobacteria are among the most ancient of all living organisms and have provided oxygen to the Earth’s atmosphere and nutrients to marine life for over 3.5 billion years.

The Upper Klamath Lake species of Aphanizomenon has been shown to be both genetically and morphologically distinct from other species of Aphanizomenon, and for many years has been identified as a nutrient-rich human food supplement which is absolutely non-toxic.

Over the past 20 plus years, millions of people have consumed Super Blue Green Algae products from Upper Klamath Lake and have experienced a wide variety of positive results. A review of the current health research on microalgae (Bruno, 2001) reveals an increased level of interest in, as well as scientific validation of, the health benefits of adding algae-based food supplements to one’s diet.

Is Upper Klamath Lake polluted?

No, Upper Klamath Lake is not polluted in the traditional sense of the word. Upper Klamath Lake is an extraordinary natural environment. However, because the amount of plant matter in the lake is above the limit established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the agency has listed the lake as “water quality impaired”. The lake is out of compliance with cool-water lake criteria for pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, and chlorophyll-A (Monda and Saiki, 1993). These parameters are closely tied to the lake’s tremendous productivity and are indicative of nutrient-rich conditions that are responsible for the growth of this unique species of the cool-water algae, Aph. flos-aquae (Gearheart et al., 1995; Bortleson and Fretwell, 1993; Kann and Smith, 1993; Miller and Tash, 1967).

Repeated testing has revealed no toxic pollutants such as heavy metals or pesticides in Upper Klamath Lake water or in the lake bed. As partial evidence of this freedom from contamination, it is noteworthy that the bald eagle, which was brought to the edge of extinction by DDT and other pollutants, has made a significant comeback due in part to the clean environment provided by Upper Klamath Lake and its surroundings. The Klamath Basin remains the largest stopover area for bald eagles in the lower 48 states, and people from all over the world come to Klamath Falls each year to attend the National Bald Eagle Conference and visit one of the world’s largest wintering sites of these magnificent birds.

Simplexity Health has dedicated substantial funding and expertise to lake water quality monitoring, to research on endangered fish, and to several wetland restoration projects. In a proactive effort to promote recovery of Upper Klamath Lake’s endangered fish species and to take overall lake water quality to an ever higher level, Simplexity Health has joined with governmental and private parties as well as the non-profit Nature Conservancy in a large-scale Upper Klamath Lake wetland restoration project.

The largest fresh-water body in Oregon, Upper Klamath Lake covers an area of approximately 125 square miles. A comparatively shallow lake, it is one of the few high-altitude lakes in the world classified as naturally eutrophic (Gearheart et al., 1995). During the last 35 or so years, the word “eutrophic” has been largely misunderstood. A eutrophic lake is one having concentrations of nutrients that are optimal for high levels of plant growth. This can be the normal state of a lake, as is the case for Upper Klamath Lake (Goldman and Horne, 1983). This situation may also be produced in almost any body of water by the addition of agricultural runoff or sewage. This is not the case in Upper Klamath Lake.

A recent survey of the perimeter of the lake and the adjoining watershed has revealed that there are virtually no agricultural chemicals (fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides) used in this area. Cattle graze on a small percentage of the surrounding acreage and are the predominant animal species that could potentially contribute to nutrient runoff into the lake. These cattle are, however, free range and deposit their manure on the fields in which they graze. Nature slowly returns these nutrients to nourish the fields in which they are deposited. In addition, no sewage of human origin flows into the lake.

In summary, Upper Klamath Lake is a very productive, naturally eutrophic lake that sustains high levels of available nutrients and plant life due to the natural influx of balanced nutrients (Gearheart et al., 1995). The continuous supply of an almost perfect balance of dissolved nutrients from the springs feeding the lake and from the ancient seabed results in an enormous annual biomass production - primarily made up of algal blooms, with Aph. flos-aquae being the dominant species (Kann, 1997). It has been conservatively estimated that the lake produces the equivalent of over 50 million dry pounds of Aph. flos-aquae annually. This complex and unusually vital ecosystem supports thriving populations of insect, fish, and waterfowl species, clearly evident to anyone visiting the area.

The Life Cycle of Upper Klamath Lake

The Klamath Basin receives 90% of its water from mineral-rich springs derived from the Cascade Mountain snow melt and from six tributaries that flow through an ancient seabed (Gearheart et al., 1995). This combination of minerals from volcanic ash and seabed sediment acts as a complete hydroponic fertilizer for all aquatic plant life found in Upper Klamath Lake. The algae come to life when the dormant algal cells are released from the frozen lake by the late spring sun. As the water warms, the algae multiplies, and by midsummer large concentrations, or “blooms”, of Aph. flos-aquae can be found throughout the lake (Kann and Smith, 1993).

The rapidly growing algae consume nutrients in the water and utilize energy from the sun for photosynthesis. Oxygen in large quantities is released into the water and subsequently into the air. Each night when photosynthesis stops, oxygen is consumed from the lake water as the algae enter the non-photosynthetic respiratory phase, releasing carbon dioxide into the water.

Because of the huge number of colonies of Aph. flos-aquae in the lake at the height of algae growth in midsummer, the lake is saturated with oxygen during the day. During the night, the algae use the oxygen in the water, significantly lowering the oxygen concentration (Monda and Saiki, 1993). Fish are dependent on the oxygen in the lake and may be negatively affected as oxygen levels decline (Logan and Markle, 1993; Piper et al., 1982). Fortunately, the fish tend to cluster where the streams flow into the lake, and they find adequate oxygen to support them during this brief time of stress.

Occasionally during warm summer nights when algae growth has been rapid, the colonies become overcrowded, and there may not be enough oxygen to support the metabolism of the masses of algae. In this situation, algae colonies may begin to die. When this happens, bacteria begin to feed on the dead cells, liberating carbon dioxide into the water at even greater levels than did the algae. This natural cyclic process has been safely taking place in Upper Klamath Lake for hundreds of years.

Klamath Basin biologists have expressed support for Simplexity Health’s efforts to restore natural conditions through purchases of large areas of agricultural land, returning them to natural wetland, and fostering appropriate land management practices in the watershed.

The water in Upper Klamath Lake is not static; the flow of water into the lake each year is equal to between four and six times the total volume of the lake. In this way, the lake is continuously purged of suspended decaying algae and other detritus, providing fresh mineral-rich water for each new growing season.

Upper Klamath Lake is an ecological miracle. The previously mentioned wetlands restoration projects have proven to be very successful, and a visit to the lake readily reveals how extraordinarily healthy this environment is.

Quality Control and Assurance

Super Blue Green Algae is a nutrient-rich food for humans and animals, and is a source of a wide range of micronutrients (Bruno, 2001). One of the important qualities Aph. flos-aquae shares with bacteria is its fragile cell wall. Vegetables and fruits have cell walls made of cellulose, which humans cannot digest and which we must therefore break down either by chewing or by cooking in order to facilitate absorption of the nutrients locked within the cell. In contrast, Aph. flos-aquae cell walls lack cellulose, require no chewing, and place few demands on the digestive system. The simple glycogen-like cell wall of the algae is easy to break down and the cells’ nutrient-rich contents are therefore almost immediately available for absorption in the digestive tract. Because it is so fragile when removed from the lake, Aph. flos-aquae is subject to more rapid decomposition than land-grown foods with their tough cell walls and protective coverings. For this reason, fastidious attention must be paid to the harvesting process, and extensive testing must be done regularly to monitor freshness and quality.

To ensure freshness, Simplexity Health’s harvesting process includes cooling the Aph. flos-aquae to less than 40°F within just a few minutes of extraction from the water. This rapid cooling preserves the composition of the algae’s chlorophyll and enzymes, and slows its metabolism to a level that prevents degradation of important and sensitive nutrients, including some amino acids, fatty acids, and nucleic acids. The cooled Aph. flos-aquae is then carefully cleaned, frozen at -40°F, and stored at -10°F. Tests indicate that when Aph. flos-aquae has been harvested, cleaned, cooled, and frozen in this manner almost all of the nutritive value is preserved.

Simplexity Health adheres to Good Manufacturing Practices, which are rigorously maintained by extraordinary attention to cleanliness. Before drying, random samples are taken from each daily batch for testing in order to ensure uniform quality. Three external independent laboratories regularly test Simplexity Health’s Aph. flos-aquae using these samples. Aph. flos-aquae is classified as a food or food supplement, and testing for possible contaminants parallels or exceeds standard testing methods used for other food products. The algae is routinely tested for the presence of heavy metals, pesticides, pathogenic bacteria, molds, yeasts, toxins, and other undesirable nontoxic natural materials (An and Carmichael, 1994; Takai and Mieskes, 1991; Matsunaga et al.; Oshima et al., 1989; Health Canada).

Simplexity Health also performs an analysis of chlorophyll in its Aph. flos-aquae using high-pressure liquid chromatography to discover any possible by-products of decomposition. The quality of the chlorophyll in Simplexity Health’s supplements exceeds by five times the accepted norm (Japanese regulations). Simplexity Health is very rigorous in testing for these by-products, as excessive levels of degraded chlorophyll can produce unwanted biological effects.

There have never been any toxins found in Aph. flos-aquae from Upper Klamath Lake. Morphological and gene sequencing analyses were performed on six strains of Aphanizomenon, and on a toxic strain, NH-5, which does not occur in Klamath Lake (Rapala et al., 1993; Skulberg et al., 1984; Gentile and Mahoney, 1969; Sawyer et al., 1968). The results of these analyses show a marked morphological and genetic difference between the toxic species and the Upper Klamath Lake species (Li et al., 2000).

As with other foods, including fish, mushrooms, and plants, some species are known to be toxic. There is always the possibility that different species of algae may be growing in a nutrient-rich natural environment such as Upper Klamath Lake. The strictest and most sensitive tests are performed to ensure the level of purity of Simplexity Health’s Aph. flos-aquae with respect to any possible contamination from other species (Gorham, 1964). The U.S. Department of Agriculture has set the guidelines for these tests, and the tests themselves are performed and certified by independent laboratories to corroborate the results of Simplexity Health’s own in-house testing.

What about Microcystis?

Toxic species from the genus Microcystis are sometimes found growing in Upper Klamath Lake. Simplexity Health monitors the algal blooms continuously before harvesting to test for the presence of this or other potentially toxic species. If and when there is danger of Microcystis contamination, Simplexity Health does not harvest.

The rigorous in-house and independent laboratory testing for microcystin (the toxin produced by Microcystis) and other possible contaminants further ensures the quality and safety of Simplexity Health’s products (Carmichael and Gorham,1980; Gorham, 1964). All of the tests are of the highest scientific standard, allowing Simplexity Health to confidently state that its products are safe (An and Carmichael, 1994; modified AOAC 959.08; JFHA, 1991).

Additionally, in the many years Simplexity Health has been operating, the Food Safety Division of the Oregon Department of Agriculture (which is responsible for licensing the production and ensuring the safety of food products produced in Oregon) has never given the company as much as a letter or note of concern that it might be out of compliance with the state’s stringent regulations. Simplexity Health is proud of this record, and is very proud to offer these excellent products to its customers.

The most important benefit SBGA offers is its biomodulating effect. Scientists have come to understand biomodulators as nutritional substances that have the ability to maintain all normal cellular and metabolic functions. So how important is this? It’s the most important benefit by far. The nutrients in SBGA help every single function of the human body…every single one!

Biomodulators increase the benefits of any and all other complementary habits and influences in your diet and lifestyle. Super Blue Green Algae is one of the most effective biomodulating superfoods ever discovered, and this is the most important reason we add it to so many of our other products. (All of them, in fact, except ImmuSun.)

Controlled studies involving various beneficial characteristics of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae have been conducted in cooperation with such prestigious institutions as Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and McGill University in Montreal, Quebec.

More specifically, what’s in Super Blue Green Algae? Gram for gram, SBGA is one of the most nutrient-rich foods available. Some of the vital nutrients found in SBGA and some of their benefits:

Beta-Carotene: A powerful free radical inhibitor, the antioxidant beta-carotene (vitamin A) boosts the immune system by increasing the strength of cell membranes (cell walls), particularly in the digestive and respiratory tracts. This makes it more difficult for free radicals and other pathogenic (disease-causing) substances to adversely affect the normal function of cells.

Chlorophyll: The green pigment found in plants, chlorophyll is responsible for the ingestion of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and the production of oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll carries more oxygen to our cells and increases the storage capacity of oxygen inside our cells. It is also a powerful antioxidant. Super Blue Green Algae is one of the richest sources in existence of this vital nutrient.

Amino Acids: Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Protein molecules often make up more than half of the physical structure of cells and tissues. There are ten non-essential amino acids, meaning that the body is able to biosynthesize them from foods. There are also ten essential amino acids, which the body must receive directly and intact from food sources. Super Blue Green Algae contains all 20 amino acids, and this is unique among food plants.

Each amino acid provides a variety of health benefits on its own, and together they provide vital fuel and energy sources, build and maintain the health of various messenger cells (called “neuropeptides”), and help modulate emotion and mood swings. In fact, amino acids are the target of much brain-mind research.

Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs): Essential fatty acids are the “good fats” vital to the flexibility and fluidity of all cells. EFAs are required nutrients for the normal growth and repair of the skin, blood vessels, and nerve tissues. They build, maintain, and repair cell membranes (cell walls). Without healthy membranes, none of the other miraculous activities of cells would be possible. EFAs have dynamic lubricating qualities that can actively increase the solubility of cholesterol deposits, meaning that they can prevent cholesterol from becoming sticky and hard, when it becomes plaque that can clog arteries. Super Blue Green Algae contains EFAs belonging to both the Omega-3 and Omega-6 groups. (Today, a lot of people are told to consume fish oil concentrate to get their Omega-3 and Omega-6 EFAs, but it is interesting to note that in order for the fish to produce these important nutrients, they consume algae in the waters where they live; so eating SBGA is the best way to get to the source of production, if you will, for these important micronutrients.)

Minerals and Trace Minerals: Without the presence of certain minerals and trace minerals in just the right amount, many vitamins and enzymes would remain idle and useless. This is what we mean when we use the terms “broad spectrum and balanced synergy” to describe one of the key characteristics of SBGA. Using isolated megadoses of any vitamin or mineral is not the way to go, except in very unusual circumstances. The best way to nourish the body is to provide nutrients in quantities and proportions that occur naturally. Due to modern agricultural practices, the topsoil feeding our food plants is seriously lacking in the full spectrum of minerals and trace minerals that once existed in abundance. The mineral-rich content of Upper Klamath Lake provides the unique balance and abundant supply of bioavailable minerals and trace minerals necessary for building strong bones, activating vitamins and enzymes, strengthening cell wall structures, and providing the basis for all electrical impulses in the body. These electrical impulses regulate all muscle and heart contractions, as well as brain and neurotransmitter functions, among others. According to the latest analysis, 23 individual minerals and trace minerals are found in Super Blue Green Algae, due to the surrounding volcanic geology that endows the lake with a rich supply of minerals each year. (And many of these minerals and trace minerals are difficult to find in any other food sources.)

Vitamins: The vitamins present in Super Blue Green Algae (vitamins A, K, and B12, among others) work together with all the other nutrients to vitalize and direct all internal enzyme systems so that each and every biochemical transaction can take place properly. Boosting the immune system, relieving tension and fatigue, improving digestion, increasing cellular energy, strengthening nerves and neurotransmitters, fighting free radicals, and improving the quality of hair, skin, and nails are just some of the benefits we receive from a balanced variety of vitamins.

Phenylethylamine: PEA, a compound that exists naturally in the human central nervous system, enhances mental energy, mental clarity, concentration, and attention, and is a natural mood elevator. It is responsible for the feelings associated with pleasure and mental awareness.

Phycocyanin: Phycocyanin is a photosynthetic blue pigment present in all blue-green algae like Aphanizomenon flos-aquae. Research has shown that phycocyanin has strong antioxidant properties. An in vitro study published in 2004 demonstrated the ability of phycocyanin derived from Aph. flos-aquae to protect normal human red blood cells and plasma samples against oxidative damage.

We have three pure Super Blue Green Algae products:

Alpha Sun is the whole algae, which provides proteins and natural complex carbohydrates critical for the health of tissues and cells. Because its cell walls are composed of peptidoglycan (carbohydrates and peptides), lipids (oils), polysaccharides (sugars), and proteins, Alpha Sun provides a highly assimilable natural complex that is critical for physical health.

Omega Sun is the heart of the algae with the peptidoglycan cell wall carefully removed, which allows more ready access to the high overall amino acid content, therefore making Omega Sun an abundant source of raw materials for building the neuropeptides that feed and enhance brain activity.

Simply SBGA is a 50-50 blend of Alpha Sun and Omega Sun in powdered form.
