			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Changes in eating habits of the population, caused by a very fast pace and stressful life, have made many people are forced to mostly or very often eat fast food or junk food. </p>

<p>Eat every day or frequently this type of food causes primarily a boost, and this is because with just a menu of fries, burger and soda, or eat it covers more than 50% of daily calories required, thereby eating disorders and obesity would be the first result. </p>
<p>Cardiovascular diseases, overweight and hypercholesterolemia due to the high amount of animal protein, saturated fat and cholesterol. Heavy and slow digestion, because the cooking method for most of their products is through the battered and breaded fried, which is made with canola oil, or coconut and palm among others, also in many cases this will be re-used. </p>
<p>Biochemical changes in the brain, such as those generated by drugs. This is caused by the high amount of sugars and fats, which generates as a result, addiction and engage in this type of food. </p>

<p>Natural sources </p>
<p>Animals: fish oil or fatty blue is one of the most common (salmon, sardines, trout, etc.)..<br />
Vegetables: soy or soybeans, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, nuts and seaweed. </p>
<p>Benefits and properties of Omega 3 fatty acids </p>
<p>Cardiovascular system: to help reduce or prevent cholesterol, triglycerides and hypertension will be of very great assistance in combating cardiovascular disease. The arteries become more elastic and the blood is more fluid. The heart, of course, also work more easily. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The reason for making a spirulina tablet is to provide a known amount of spirulina in a controlled way that can be used by the body. When a tablet, the main issue is the bioavailability. Which is the body&#8217;s ability to use raw ingredients that the tablets provided. If a pill does not dissolve or disintegrate, the body can not use it. So that must be pressed properly, otherwise it can not be used by the body efficiently.</p>
<p>Spirulina Tablets contains natural Spirulina which provides you with a variety of nutrients to stay healthy and energetic. Good and nutritious, Spirulina tablets can be consumed anywhere and at any time to suit your needs. Spirulina tablets can be chewed or swallowed (if your child can) and Spirulina powder can be added to yogurt, juice or applesauce. Time-consuming spirulina lowered levels of IgE in the blood, which in turn, normalized allergic response in the body. Consumers are cautioned to read all labels and follow all directions. Some of our products contain stimulants such as caffeine.</p>
<p>Amino acids are necessary for rebuilding tissue, repair damaged cells, or blood clots. Amino acids represent 62% of spirulina. Since it is a rich source of protein and other nutrients, spirulina has been used traditionally as a nutritional supplement.</p>
<p>One of the most important factors is the quality and uniformity of the powder, it must be of high quality and flow evenly and consistently, the tablet presses the measured volume of powder to achieve the correct weight of the tablet, therefore control volume is crucial. The moisture content, particle size and density Wholesale is very closely monitored. There are different ways to use spirulina tablets. The direct compression is used for 100% organic spirulina. This means that there is nothing more added in the form of glue or fillers. The centrifugal force and the correct number of rotations in the machine tablets tablets placed together naturally.</p>
<p>The method used for non-organic Spirulina tablets is a moist mixture with direct compression. First, the powder is mixed with dilute, then dried in a tray of dried fluid. A minimal amount of silica is mixed with the raw ingredient. Then the mixture is processed in a dam to tablets.</p>
<p>Obtain the correct compression is one of the most important aspects of the tablets. The tablet should be kept compressed, items that are used for dyeing are constantly monitored to ensure the excellent condition of the surface. This is crucial to the success of the production of a tablet of consistent quality. Continuous testing of tablets was carried out in the production area, for the weight, thickness, hardness, friability, disintegration and dissolution. These tests are conducted regularly. A slight variation within the range expected in a lot or batch to batch, maintaining the values that are our focus is key to success.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The name Spirulina is derived from the Latin of the word &#8220;spiral or helix,&#8221; which refers to its physical configuration. Spirulina is a single-celled algae that grows and multiplies in natural waters in alkaline medium. It&#8217;s called blue-green algae by the presence of chlorophyll which gives the green color that gives phycocyanin blue. </p>
<p>The spirulina is being developed as &#8220;food of the future.&#8221; Contains 65 to 70% protein with all essential amino acids in perfect balance. Spirulina has been used in malnutrition, diabetes, anemia, liver disease, ulcers, pancreatitis, allergies, heavy metal poisoning, aging and weight loss. </p>
<p>In the United States has been much interest in the use of spirulina for weight loss. Its high protein content is rapidly absorbed, it contains polysaccharides that raise blood sugar levels. Because hunger is recorded in the brain when levels of sugar and amino acids are low, kill these nutrients high in the blood, the brain is &#8220;tricked&#8221; and produces a feeling of fullness, reduces appetite and thus helps people who need to lose weight. </p>
<p>It also contains the minerals potassium, calcium, zinc, magnesium, manganese, selenium, iron and phosphorus. The vitamins, pyridoxine (B6), Biotin, Pantothenic Acid, Folic Acid, Inositol, Niacin, Riboflavin (B2) Thiamin (B1) and Tocopherol (Vitamin E). Spirulina is also one of the few plants that are sources of vitamin B12, usually found only in tissue animal.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s hard to imagine that a concentrated source of nutrients such as spirulina, this is not high in fat and calories. The spirulina is formed only by 7% fat and they are essential fatty acids as part of the cell membrane of every cell of our bodies. Among many other benefits that give the body, help control high cholesterol levels. </p>
<p>The human digestive system, when bombarded with over-processed fatty foods, not enough quality nutrients removed. The body is continually starved in regard to nutrients, thus increasing the appetite and compulsive consumption of food. </p>
<p>Weight loss is not the end point. It is just the beginning of a glorious and healthy life. Weight loss pills, weight loss programs, liposuction and etc. Which method is the healthiest? Weight loss may be temporary or may continue at a life-threatening pace.</p>
<p>Fat loss is just one aspect of weight loss. People consume spirulina as a dietary supplement as part of the transformation of its health and vitality. Spirulina is a highly concentrated food. Many people use it as a dietary supplement and as a complete meal. For those who have busy lives is ideal. </p>
<p>As part of a complete natural diet, spirulina can help you keep body fat at a healthy level. Many people use with low-carbohydrate diets and exercise to get results. Take a spoonful of powder (about 5 grams), one hour before meals can help satisfy your appetite. It is not an appetite suppressant in any way, and contains no drugs or chemicals that trick the body. To be the longest digestive process that occurs in the body, the less work the agency has to be done to extract nutrients from food, the longer will be using them for repair, growth and vital functions. It is exactly what the body needs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spirulina Powder benefits? Spirulina is highly concentrated in nutrients and has detoxifying properties (see Adverse Reactions), it is recommended to start with a dose of 1 g per day (1 / 4 tsp) during the first week and increase the dose gradually over the following weeks. </p>
<p>Spirulina is high as it is for more than 3 billion years. Named for its spiral shape, it belongs to the family of cyanobacteria or blue-green microalgae. There are nearly 1 500 species of algae, spirulina and 36 species are edible. The main species currently on the market is Spirulina platensis. First grown primarily in California and Hawaii, Spirulina is now produced in a controlled manner throughout the world where the climate permits: Chile, China, Cuba, India, West Africa, etc.. Commercially, Spirulina is usually in the form of a powder blue-green dried, in bulk or in capsules. </p>
<p>During the 1970s, spirulina has become popular in industrialized countries as health food or nutritional supplement. For example, theay claim about weight loss and disorder attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are based on no evidence. These uses are not based on a practice of traditional medicine, which relies on the fact that algae is a food rich in nutrients. </p>
<p>Nutritional composition. Spirulina is low in calories, contains a wealth of nutrients in a very small volume. Here are the key. Its content may vary by geographical origin, but also by the methods of cultivation, drying and grinding. </p>
<p>Spirulina contains 55% to 70% protein of good quality (proportion of amino acid digestibility and optimal) or 2.5 g to 3.5 g of protein per 5 g of powder. </p>
<p>Spirulina is an exceptional source of various carotenoids (beta-carotene mainly, but also cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin, etc..), Or around 22 mg / 5 g. It provides such an astronomical amount of beta-carotene, or 12 000 IU 25 000 IU / 5 g of powder. </p>
<p>It is an excellent source of iron, is 3 mg to 8 mg per 5 g. </p>
<p>It contains a significant amount of gamma-linolenic acid (40 mg to 50 mg / 5 g), an unsaturated fatty acid omega-61. To learn more about omega-6 fatty acids, see our basic form. </p>
<p>In addition, Spirulina is rich in phycocyanin, the only blue pigment that can serve as natural food coloring and which is assigned an important antioxidant activity. It also contains chlorophyll and small amounts of several minerals. That is why we often speak of this alga as a &#8220;superfood&#8221;. </p>
<p>Research on Spirulina </p>
<p>Several tests on animals have shown that spirulina has antioxidant, immunostimulant, anti-diabetic and can reduce lipid. 2. However, to date, despite claims of some producers and distributors, little evidence supports its effectiveness in humans. Indeed, although it has undergone several clinical trials, many of them are small (30 subjects or less) and their methodological quality is often poor. </p>
<p>Allergic rhinitis. Tests indicate that taking spirulina can positively influence some markers of immunity in healthy people. A recent trial in Turkey has focused on 129 people with allergic rhinitis and gave promising results: taking 2 grams of spirulina daily for 16 weeks was more effective than placebo in reducing symptoms of allergic rhinitis. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spirulina is a modern super-food rich in raw protein and seven major vitamins: A1, B1, B2, B6, B12, C and E.  Spirulina contains the most potent nutrient combination of foods studied so far, and is well worth a try in your quest for total body wellbeing.<br />
Spirulina is in pill or powder, or flakes. Most of the spirulina consumed in the U.S. are grown in a laboratory. It naturally contains beta-carotene, color pigments increase, and the full range of minerals. Spirulina benefits will help to increase energy, strengthen the immune system and promote a healthy and shiny coat. Spirulina benefits every normal cell in your body.</p>
<p>Vitamins and Minerals<br />
An example of the vitamins found in Spirulina is the B vitamins such as Vitamin B12.<br />
Spirulina is the world&#8217;s richest natural source of Vitamin B12. Helps you know<br />
however, if it is in an active form in humans. Perhaps, however, soluble<br />
compounds with Phycocyanin increase the bioavailability of Vitamin B12 in the body.<br />
Spirulina also contains iron. This iron is in a form that is easy for body to deal with, unlike Vitamin B12. Spirulina can cure anemia in 30 days. </p>
<p>Fatty acid, GLA<br />
You can also find the essential fatty acid, GLA in spirulina. Gamma-linolenic acid has otherwise so far only found in Evening primrose flower(Oenothera biennis, family Onagraceae) and in breast milk. The flower&#8217;s seeds are the fat oil extracted with hexane. Oil contains 65-80% linoleic acid and 8-14% GLA. GLA is a polyunsaturated fatty acid belonging omega-6 fatty acids, which consists of a long carbon chain of 18 carbon atoms with three double bonds. </p>
<p>GLA stimulates the formation of prostaglandins and fatty acid is important for cells,<br />
heart, blood and muscle function. Prostaglandins and their precursors affects many processes in the body, leading to the GLA may help to multiple illnesses and symptoms. GLA is produced in certain amounts by the body itself. The formation of GLA may be impaired at such diabetes, hyperactivity and Sjogren&#8217;s syndrome. GLA can alleviate these conditions described above and can also help against rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease, severe obesity, eczema, PMS and zinc deficiency.<br />
Although alcoholism, manic depression, aging symptoms, and schizophrenia may<br />
caused by GLA deficiency. GLA appears also anti-inflammatory.</p>
<p>Spirulina and Cholesterol<br />
Spirulina has been shown to reduce levels of blood fats in eight weeks without any<br />
change in food intake. Bad cholesterol LDL is lowered while the good HDL cholesterol is left unchanged. There is good cholesterol that protects cup veins of fat deposits.<br />
Studies were made only in rats, but now there are also studies in other animals as well as on people. Spirulina increases the activity of some lipases, which is why the<br />
cholesterol-lowering effect. Spirulina can also alleviate cardiovascular disease because reduces the amount of arteriosclerosis. The liver also showed a positive change.</p>
<p>Spirulina, the immune system and cancer<br />
There are studies about spirulina and strengthening the body&#8217;s immune system by<br />
response to infection becomes stronger. It is both the primary and the secondary<br />
defense is strengthened. Among other things, it has been shown in studies in cats and mice that antibody formation and the number of NK cells increased, the macrophages activity and phagocytosis stimulated. NK cells or natural killer cells &#8220;are leukocytes that may distinguish between endogenous and foreign cells and which plays an important role in defense against cancer cells. This immune-enhancing effect has in turn led to a better protection against cancer. The number of surviving mice increased significantly, which may be due to the increased cells observed, suggesting the stimulation of immune system.</p>
<p>Studies on the blue color pigment Phycocyanin in Spirulina has shown that it is this<br />
substance which partially accounts for the stimulatory effect on the immune system.<br />
Phycocyanin conserved and accelerated the body&#8217;s normal cell functions but<br />
inhibited cancer growth or resurfaced. The other protective substances such as Carotenoids help to achieve this effect. Spirulina also increases it which acts as a safeguard against infections and also stimulates the immune system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fatty acids and fiber in the acai berry<br />
Acai berry is a unique fruit that it is rich in fatty acids. This allows the berries add good calories (600 calories per 100 g of berries). Without a doubt, this is very useful in the poor areas where acai become staple diet. The concentration of fibers is very high. It is often mixed or combined with other fruits, juices, and made them energetic snacks, liquor, jelly and ice cream, which is actually more potent than in liquid form due to higher concentration of nutrients.</p>
<p>As we noted earlier, we not only consume berry alone, we use acai in combination with other healthy products in order to obtain the greatest benefits acai form. The most obvious benefit of acai berry and its potential economic value, has drawn a lot of companies that create and produce their brand of acai products to aid weight loss and other health issues. But each product is different. The formulations of existing acai products can be quite different, the composition of the choice of ingredients, sourcing of ingredients and preparation of ingredients. All factors can affect the quality of the finished products.</p>
<p>A lot of fat-soluble vitamins<br />
Acai berry is a pretty good source of vitamins. It contains as an investigation quite a lot of vitamin C while others suggest that the level is quite low. Some of the B vitamins are. Content of water soluble vitamins are generally not very high in comparison. </p>
<p>By contrast, an unusual amount of fat-soluble vitamins, which should come to the high content of fatty acids. According to a published analysis, 45 mg vitamin E and about 1000 IU vitamin A per 100 grams of fruit which is very unusual. </p>
<p>Many minerals<br />
Juice of the acai berry has a distinct metallic taste which indicates that the fruit contains a lot of minerals. It is also the case and it is a good source of most of the minerals we need to get into us. </p>
<p>The concentration of potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, copper, phosphorus, potassium and zinc are unusually high compared to other fruits. For example, calcium is 250 to 286 mg (from lowest to highest value in published tests) per 100 grams of fruit. For the iron content is 1.5 to 4.5 mg per 100 g. </p>
<p>Antioxidants and a mystery<br />
The purple color comes from the phenolic compounds and in which particular anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are antioxidant dyes such as also found in blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. The total content of known antioxidants are not particularly high, according to a published analysis. </p>
<p>The powder was used to make pills. It has been shown that this magical fruit is a natural metabolism booster, which is a major fresh answers to a lot of dieters. It does not suppress your appetite, you still eat the same amount of delicious enjoyable meal you want, what it does, in layman&#8217;s term, deburring more calories when you do your normal activities. Acai has been used initially by surfers in better shape because of its ability to increase metabolism. </p>
<p>Nevertheless, studies show that antioxidant capacity is measured in this is very good with acai. To use this device as the ORAC Acai in one study resulted in 102 700 per 100 g. The fruits and berries, this is a very high value. </p>
<p>Unknown antioxidants in acai berry<br />
It seems therefore not unlikely that unknown antioxidants found in acai berry. This is not unreasonable or even perhaps unusual because the quantities of various antioxidants found in fruits, vegetables and fruits. This is an important reason why you should eat a varied diet with different fruits, berries, roots and vegetables. </p>
<p>Antioxidants in fruits and berries is believed to include play a role in protecting them from UV light and various types of parasitic diseases. Fat can oxidize and become rancid and thus the process slowed by antioxidants. One can therefore speculate that the acai with its high content of fat, therefore, is developing more antioxidants and may therefore have an unknown Lipophilicity antioxidant. </p>
