AFA Wild Klamath Blue Green Algae
AFA Wild Blue Green Algae is used by film stars and top triathletes.
Called Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae (AFA) by scientists, this wild Klamath Blue Green Algae® sold by C & S Organics is the most nutrient-dense greenfood available for those seeking optimum health with wild wholefoods.
This wild blue green algae is starting to receive serious media attention: Newsweek magazine reported a few years ago that this wild wholefood from Upper Klamath Lake is one of the fastest growing items in the health food market; it has been described in the British press as the greenfood supplement of choice by various high-profile personalities; and most recently it has been promoted by Gillian McKeith on her UK television series, "You Are What You Eat". (For a Good Health Guide on this product containing more information, see the books section to purchase 'Miracle Superfood: Wild Blue Green Algae Book,' shown above.)
The surge in popularity of AFA blue green algae bears testimony to the wide spectrum of health benefits that people have experienced when taking the algae. And while vitamin and mineral supplements have become heavily promoted for nearly a half-century, wild greenfoods such as Klamath blue green algae are now becoming important components of leading-edge nutritional regimes. Healthcare practitioners - including physicians, naturopaths, homeopaths, acupuncturists and chiropractors - are using this particular algae as part of their patients' nutritional regimes.
- Klamath Blue Green Algae® is a convenient wild wholefood - which grows without pesticides or artificial fertilizers. Many believe wholefood vitamins, minerals and other nutrients are better absorbed and utilized by the body, even though they are present in small quantities.
- Freeze-dried to retain enzymatic and nutritional integrity. This also serves to highly concentrate its goodness, increasing its nutritional value by as much as 20 times. Freeze-dried algae is far superior to cheaper air/heat-dried brands, and, of course, to unconcentrated frozen-liquid varieties.)
- One of the only vegetarian sources of vitamin B12, providing 133% of the RDA.
- Contains 60% high quality protein.
- Highest beta-carotene content per gram of any food - a provitamin that boosts the immune system and scavenges free radicals that can cause oxidative damage in the body.
- Richest known source of chlorophyll, which can help our bodies in cell regeneration, blood purification and general detoxification.
- Its high nutrient content and low calorie count (4 calories per gram) make it compatible with weight-loss programs.
- Enzyme active for complete and easy absorption.
- Full spectrum of trace minerals.
- Source of fatty acids and nucleic acids.
- Klamath Blue Green Algae is completely toxin-free due to unique filtering and processing systems used only by the harvesters of this brand.

Wild AFA Klamath Blue Green Algae® (Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae) sold by C & S Organics grows wild in Upper Klamath Lake in the US state of Oregon. For centuries, this algae has traditionally been a source of nutrition for the Native American population living in the area, but it has only been since the 1990s that it has been available here in the UK. Klamath Blue Green Algae is now recognized as one of the most nutrient-dense wholefoods, able to give the body a level and quality of nutrition which both the Western deficient modern diet and artificial supplements are unable to deliver. For this reason it is now an increasingly popular and recommended food supplement. There are many reasons given below why Klamath Blue Green Algae is known as the King of Algae, but in the end each of us has to experience it for ourselves!
- One of the most nutrient dense wholefoods containing bioavailable vitamins, minerals and amino acids.
- Freeze-dried to retain nutritional integrity including enzyme activity (most algae harvesters use cheaper spray-drying methods which damage the nutrients). Freeze-drying also concentrates nutrients by up to 20 times, making this algae much more nutritionally valuable than frozen liquid brands.
- Just two capsules or 1 gram contains 8µg of bioavailable Vitamin B12. In fact, it is one of the only vegetable sources of this important vitamin. (Spirulina has analogue B12 which is unusable by the body.)
- Contains 1.4mg (2260IU) of Beta-Carotene per gram.
- Each batch is rigorously tested for quality and purity. It has also been tested by a government lab here in the UK.
- Undergoes a unique filtration system that separates off 100% of the microcystin content. (No other AFA brand undergoes this process.)
- Certified organic by Oregon Tilth. (In Europe, however, it is not legal for us to market it as organic as Brussels has recently decried that nothing grown wild can be labelled as such.)
- 68% high quality protein, more than animal sources.
- Each gram contains 30mg of chlorophyll. (Spirulina contains 11.5mg per gram, Chlorella 28mg, Barley Grass 14.9mg and Wheat Grass 5.5mg.)
- An alkaline food - most foods have an acidic effect on the body.
- Contains only 4 calories per daily intake of 1gram.
- This algae has a soft cell wall which makes the nutrients 98% assimilable.
- Helps to integrate brain and body function.
- Contains no GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms).

| The above is the full nutritional profile of Klamath Blue Green Algae. Many of the nutrients are present in very small amounts which is why they are not listed on the product label. However, because the algae is so easily absorbed, and because these nutrients are in an organic form, they may be more significant than the absolute figures suggest. Remember that Klamath Blue Green Algae is a wholefood and should not be compared with the artificial pills available in health food stores, which some evidence shows may be harmful in certain concentrations. |
As interest grows in this algae sold by C & S Organics, debate will continue over the spectrum of health claims associated with this product. One fact is certain; the number of individuals taking this unique and powerful wholefood supplement is rapidly growing, along with mounting evidence for its beneficial nutritional effects.
