Healthy Tips

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.

Simplexity Health products are vastly different than the majority of vitamins or isolated supplements on the market shelves.  Our products are based on whole foods and naturally occurring bacteria and enzymes; they contain NO synthetics or isolates.  

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!

Keep That Valentine Feeling With The Love Molecule

When you enjoy euphoria with your lover or when you’re extremely happy and excited, your brain produces an amino acid called phenyl ethylamine (PEA). Hence it is commonly known as ‘the love molecule’.

If you’re loved up and happy enough to produce plenty of PEA then lucky you!

But if, like most of us, you don’t enjoy that Valentine’s Day feeling often – or ever – then the good news is you can introduce PEA to your body in an absorbable form to help alleviate depression, stabilize your mood, clarify your thoughts and stimulate feelings of joy and love. This is because PEA directly contributes to increasing the quantity of dopamine (the ‘feel good’ hormone) in your body that, in turn, can bring about improved mood and emotions.

Where can you find ‘The Love Molecule’?

PEA is found in high concentration in Super Blue Green algae!

This algae contains enough PEA to promote better mood, relieve stress and help with moderate to serious depression.

The blue-green Klamath micro alga is found in Klamath Lake in Oregon. It has extraordinary therapeutic nutritional properties and is arguably the most powerful and complete all-natural Superfood on the planet.

PEA is found in the supplement Alpha Sun in a sufficiently high quantity to make a difference.

Alpha Sun is organic Klamath blue-green Micro algae.  Alpha Sun is also known for its high content of vitamins and minerals.

Alpha Sun is totally derived from an organic plant source which means its vitamins and minerals are easily absorbed by the body - unlike many synthetic multi-nutrient mixtures that the body may not recognize or assimilate easily.

How to take Alpha Sun?  To keep that loving feeling, six capsules a day (1 gram) is recommended – three in the morning; three at lunch time.

Who Should Take Alpha Sun?

Alpha Sun is truly a nutritional supplement for the 21st century as research reveals it helps people cope with:

· Stress
· Depression*
· Anxiety
· Fatigue
· Nervous conditions


* Supplementation with 10-60mg of PEA was able to reduce 60% of clinically diagnosed depressions  (source: SABELLI, H., et al. J Neuropsyc Clin Neurosci. 1996,8,2,168-71).

What Is Super Blue Green Algae?

Posted by - admin  :  Category - acidophilus, afa blue green algae, blue green algae, bluegreen algae, bluegreenalgae, dietary supplements, digestive enzymes, eating algae, food and health, food supplements, health food, health food city, health food store, health foods, health products, health supplements, heart health, kosher food, natural food, natural vitamins, nutraceuticals, nutrition health food, nutritional supplement, organic health food, organic products, phytonutrients, probiotics, protein supplement, raw food, simplexity health, simplexityhealth, stemplex, super blue green, super blue green algae, super food, superfood, unique super health food

Wild-crafted Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, or Super Blue Green® Algae (SBGA), is the edible microalgae on which most Simplexity Health products are based. It contains more than 60 individual micronutrients, each with its own proven health benefits. It is the broad spectrum and balanced synergy of naturally occurring and wild-crafted nutrients that make organic-certified Super Blue Green Algae so unique and special.

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.
