Source Naturals - Blue-Green Algae 500 Mg. 200 Tablets 137601

I've been taking Blue Green Algae for over 30 years. It has made a great difference in my life. I've used many different brands over the years, and they all seem pretty similar. The only difference is price usually. This brand I've been using for quite a few years, and have always been satisfied with the quality. Depending on my financial situation at any given time, I've always taken at least 5 tablets.

Good product

I used to buy CellTech (Simplexity) products, which were great for a long time. But then someone else took over the company and made it much more commercial, no longer grassrootsy, and the algae itself lost its potency. I was distraught. I talked to numerous customer service people there, to no avail. That algae had really saved my life and that of many others, but now it seems to be overprocessed, just like all the rest. So I would rather have dead algae than no algae, and I am happy in that regard with this product. 4 stars because this algae is also overprocessed and dead.

I finally went back to tablets which are so much better because I am not swallowing any more capsule material and it has no bad smells from capsules. I realize many people say this BG Algae is nonsense, but I know I feel more energy with it, think better, and actually can play guitar much better when I take it. Cuts heal faster too, I have no idea why. I also take more if I plan to have a few drinks since it seems to reduce the effects of the drinks. The key to me, whether this has any effect is that you have to have good intestines/colon condition or it does not get absorbed so a cleanse comes first. Secondly, if you have some serious disease (which I found out with other people) it also tends to have no effect that you can feel. I take a lot of supplements, most of the others I hope they are doing something, this one I can actually feel results. I take 3-4 tablets first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, sometimes I take 5-6 if I think I need a big boost for the day. Myabe a couple of ours later another 6. I also suggest you buy Source Naturals brand (this one) because it is important how this obtained and I trust Source Naturals.Bottom line, I have first hand knowledge that it has a positive effect on my brain and energy and mood. I have been taking this stuff for many years. Do not take at night unless you want to sleep. The label says take one, but I doubt most people do. I do know that has to start with one before working up to more. Realize anything you eat or drink is at your own risk.

I have taken this supplement off and on since the early 90's. I can tell when I stop taking it. It is a must for people with digestion problems. Just make sure you drink a lot of water, not soda or other crap to assist this supplement. Water makes this supplement bio-available to the body in ways that you will discover very quickly.Stool problems will disappear if you are older like me. When I had a few stool problems, I immediately starting taking this supplement and this problem went away. I also take source naturals spirulina. These two work together to give energy and minerals that the body needs..... plus other pluses that I can't scientifically explain.Read my review on Resveratrol to find out other supplement I take with this product.This product is the best and the best priced Algae that I have ever consumed."Update 2015" .... Source Naturals is still a great value per-dosage. I failed to include one of the most important reasons to take Lake Klamath Blue-Green Algae. This important reason is the trace minerals in colloidal form from this product.Lake Klamath is a Volcano Lake. This Lake feeds the Klamath River. You can find Gold & Platinum in the Klamath River if you dredge in this river. Platinum and Gold are two of the best sources of minerals needed by the body to keep healthy. Blue Green Algae gives you a natural form of these two minerals plus almost all of the other traces minerals your body needs to be healthy. Just remember, you are made of water and minerals.Consuming alcohol and taking antioxidants will leach minerals from your body. Sweating and exercising leaches your body of minerals... daily. You need to replace your minerals daily to replenish these expelled minerals. This is also super important for mothers that want to have more children. Babies take away your store of minerals to be healthy babies.Colloidal refers to particle size of a mineral element when I say colloidal minerals. If minerals are not in colloidal form, they are too large for your body to utilize and expel easily. Mineral pills have a particle size that is huge. The Gall Bladder, Kidneys, and Liver can clog up by using minerals that are larger than colloidal in size...... I care and this is why I made an effort to give extra information to this review.
