We all have many nutritional choices when it comes to micro-nutrition (or supplements)…not macro-nutrition (or regular foods such as oatmeal)…I choose to get my ‘health assurance’ from edible micro-algae, which has it all!
Why Simplexity Health products are the best.
A vitamin is allowed to be called, “natural” as long as it matches, on a molecular level, some nutrient. This means it can be–and often is–wholly synthesized from non-food ingredients.
A great example is vitamin C. In nature, it is always contained in a food that also has a complete complex of C vitamins, as well as rutin or bioflavinoids. In synthesized or isolated form, it is almost completely unusable by the body.
In addition, the perfect balance of vitamins and minerals is judged, in the body, in micro amounts. Adding too much of one will totally displace the ability of another, making the whole less than the separates. Mother Nature is intelligent!
At Simplexity Health, “whole food supplements” mean that the products contain at least a majority of whole foods, which are dried at low temperatures and minimally processed in order to retain the integrity of the micronutrients they contain.
Simplexity Health does have some supplements that contain pure extracts (such as green tea or blueberry), which are also minimally processed to concentrate them.
We believe that nature has an intelligence, and each whole food contains not only nutrients, but nutrient complexes which benefit and work with every other nutrient contained within that food.
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Is it really a superfood?
So what is a Superfood? There are lots of products out right now that say they are Superfoods. Some say they are Organic Superfoods, but you really have to read the label!
Certainly some of these products have great antioxidants, and for most people eating the Standard American Diet (SAD), it can be an improvement over what they may be eating or snacking on.
It is interesting that most of them are some form of concentrated fruit or berry juices; usually pasteurized. This means that unlike our algae, they are not a ‘live’ food. Many also contain extra sweetener; notice how high in sugar they are. (Most berries are considered too sour not to use a sweetener.)
It is important to realize that while antioxidants are tremendously beneficial, they are only ONE of the 4 Pillars of Health. Our products allow you to have a complete health program.
You’ve probably seen products that say they are “natural and organic”. Notice if their ingredients show they have vitamins in a perfect 100% RDA amount. This is a sure sign that vitamin isolates were added!
With the looseness in labeling, we have to read the labels. Even if the label does not mention additives, the product may still be synthesized in some way. Organic may not be truly organic.
To quote one of our field mentors, raw food specialist and holistic nurse, Katharine Clark:
Super Blue Green Algae has more chlorophyll than wheat grass juice, more iron than spinach, more beta-carotene than carrots, more ormus than almost anything, more protein than eggs, and the vast array of minerals and trace minerals are totally bio-available to your body.
SBGA is rich in minerals, essential amino acids and micro-nutrients, with the almost identical EFA profile as breast milk; that’s good food! It’s also over 95% assimilable, which is really high for a protein rich food.
To quote Steve Gagne, author of The Energetics of Food:
Upper Klamath Lake is nature’s last pure ecological niche for the production of an ancient strand of blue-green algae known as Super Blue Green Algae - a forgotten food so potentially powerful that it can dramatically shift the health and consciousness of all those who partake of its life-giving properties!
