Strengthen the immune system
Strong immune system protects you from harmful invasion of viruses and bacteria. People with strong immune system are generally healthier and seldom fall sick. If you are prone to have colds, flu, cough and the like, it may just mean that your immune system is low.
Elken Spirulina contains phycocyanin. It is one of the four phytonutrients in Elken Spirulina. Spirulina is a blue-green algae, also known as Cyanobacteria. It is this phycocyanin that gives spirulina the green blue colour. Phycocyanin in spirulina stimulates the immune system.
Elken Spirulina also contains polysaccharides. A polysaccharide is a long-chain carbohydrate made up of smaller carbohydrates called monosaccharides that’s typically used by our bodies for energy or to help with cellular structure. Instead of just providing energy and help with cellular structure, polysaccharides also strengthen the immune system.

If phycocyanin is known for its green blue colour, then Beta Carotene is known for its red-orange colour. Beta Carotene is an organic, strongly coloured red-orange pigment abundant in plants and fruits. Guess what? Yes, Beta Carotene strengthens the immune system as well!
Next, we have the amino acids. Amino acids are essential organic compounds with a primary function as the building blocks for proteins. Although we normally associate amino acids or protein with muscle building, formation and repair of both muscle and bone, amino acids also function as regulation of the immune system. Protein is also important for growth and cell regeneration. The amino acids also manage the insulin levels in the body and transport minerals throughout the body.

If you’re a woman, you’ve surely heard of: GLA – Gamma Linolenic Acid. It is a fatty acid, or specifically omega-6 fatty acid, found primarily in vegetable oils. Did you know that GLA was first isolated from the seed oil of evening primrose oil (EPO)? GLA acts as regulation of the immune system too.

Keep you energised

The best thing that I personally like about Elken Spirulina is its potent power to keep you energised. If you’re feeling tired most of the time even though you had enough rest and sleep, it could just be that your body is too acidic. Acidosis is when your body fluids contain too much acid.
Source: http://www.healthline.com/health/acidosis
This is where Elken Spirulina can be of great benefit to you. If you don’t already know it, Elken Spirulina is 100% alkaline!
Another reason why you are always tired could be due to insufficient iron. Elken Spirulina contains iron and it is 56 times higher than spinach. Iron combines with protein to form red blood cells. Healthy red blood cells carry oxygen to your body. There’s also chlorophyll helps build red blood cells in the body. If you’re pregnant and you have that morning sickness of vomiting, you may also be iron deficient.
Deficiency of the B vitamins can also lead to lethargic. This is because the B vitamins help to convert the food that we eat into glucose, which gives us energy.
Source: http://www.healthline.com/health/b12-vitamins-for-energy
Elken Spirulina contains these vital B vitamins such as B1 Thiamin, B2 Riboflavin, B3 Niacin, B5 Pantothenic Acid, B6 Pyridoxine, B9 Folic Acid, B12 Cyanocobalamin, B15 Pangamic Acid and B17 Laetrile.
Just like the B vitamins, magnesium helps to produce energy. People who have low blood levels of calcium may have problem to absorb magnesium.

Luckily, Elken Spirulina also contains calcium.
When your body suffers from nutrients deficiency, you can easily get tired and out of energy. Protein, vitamins and minerals in Elken Spirulina rebuilds the body’s depleted nutrients and thus, keeps you energised.
Phycocyanin is another component that provides energy as it also helps to produce stem cells.
Detox toxins
Chlorophyll helps to reduce the toxicity of mercury, drugs and chemical pollutants in kidneys and liver. It also removes drug deposits from the body, helps to purify the blood of harmful contaminants and counteracts the effect of damaging acids.
Chlorophyll binds with heavy metals and radioactive isotopes. This is not only beneficial for people who undergo radioactive therapy but also to us because we are constantly exposed to pollution, UV rays, smoke and radiation from computers, handphones and all other sorts of technologies. Chlorophyll also combines with magnesium to remove toxins from the blood.
Aside from chlorophyll, polysaccharides in spirulina acts the same way. Polysaccharides cleanse the body from heavy metals. We accumulate these heavy metals not only from drugs but also possibly from our drinking water. Read here to learn more about harmful heavy metals in drinking water.
Similarly phycocyanin helps detoxify the body naturally.
AFA is a strong antidote. AFA also removes heavy metals and protects cells from radiation.
Help radiation sickness
Phycocyanin relieves allergies caused by radiation poisoning.
Russian scientists use Spirulina to relieve radiation illness and patented its usage as a medical food. The Russian patent was awarded in 1994.
“Petaluma, CA January 2, 1995: A Russian patent was awarded for the use of Spirulina as a medical food for improving immunity of the Children of Chernobyl. Studies showed that 270 children, living in highly radioactive areas, had chronic radiation sickness and elevated levels of Immunoglobulin E (IgE), a marker for high allergy sensitivity. Thirty five pre school children were prescribed 20 Spirulina tablets per day (about 5 grams) for 45 days. Consuming Spirulina lowered the levels of IgE in the blood, which in turn, normalized allergic sensitivities in the body.
Reference: Means to normalize the levels of immunoglobulin E, using the food supplement Spirulina. by L. Evets, et al. 1994. Grodenski State Medical Univ. Russian Federation Committee of Patents and Trade. Patent (19)RU (11)2005486. Jan. 15, 1994. Russia.”

Spirulina can reduce radiation effects up to 50% in only 20 days!
Radiation and women
Exposure to radiation everyday will:
⇒ Damage skin
⇒ Cause miscarriage
⇒ Accelerate ageing
Radiation and men
Mobile phones can reduce s***m counts by 30%!
Exposure to high voltage and electromagnetic wave can cause:
⇒ Lethargy
⇒ Headache
⇒ Leukaemia
⇒ Cancer

Reduce Inflammation
We have learnt previously that spirulina contains Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) which helps to regulate the immune system. GLA has another function which is anti-inflammatory and one of the most powerful too.
Food for the brain

Nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) and SOD help produce high quality brain tissues and increase the ability of red blood cells to carry oxygen to the brain.
AFA can balance the function of the right and left brain effectively, i.e. logic thinking and instinct and help to enhance memory.
Boost your brain health:
Amino Acids: Produces neurotransmitters in the brain which affects our mood and induces sleep.
Vitamins and minerals: Converts carbohydrates into glucose and amino acids into neurotransmitters.
Antioxidants: Fights free radical damage in the brain while boosting the immune system.
Essential Fatty Acids: Promotes cell regeneration to increase alertness and improve memory retention.
Anti-ageing
SOD can neutralise active oxygen, delay ageing, revive energy levels, prevent formation of wrinkles, black spots and grey hair.
Nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) helps in repairing genetic elements in injured cells and slows down the ageing process.
SOD helps to restore energy level, memory and youthfulness.
Enzyme (RNA/DNA) is responsible for directing cellular renewal, growth and repair.
Another element that helps to slow down the ageing process is Beta Carotene which is a powerful antioxidants.
Improve anaemia
Vitamin B12 helps to build blood and assist in anaemia problems.
Vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrate, fat and natural pigments are the 6 main nutrients which provide balanced elements for blood formation to prevent anaemia caused by nutrient deficiency.
Deficiency of vitamins, protein and iron can lead to anaemia. Spirulina provides a balanced nutritional intake.
Improve malnutrition problems
Elken Spirulina is 95% digestible. It is made up of 65% protein and amino acids that are easily digestible. It also contains vital digestive enzymes which are easily digested and absorbed.
Spirulina contains concentrated nutrients that are nearly 1,000 times higher than edible seaweed and vegetables.
Spirulina is an excellent source of trace minerals making it nature’s multivitamin.
IIMSAM choose Spirulina and IIMSAM collaborate with Dr. Yasumasa to promote Elken Spirulina.*
*IIMSAM: Intergovernmental Institution for the Use of Micro-algae Spirulina Against Malnutrition; Permanent Intergovernmental Observer to the UN.
