The Tiny Spiral
For thousands of years microalgae have been used worldwide as a food source and cure for various diseases and ailments. Spirulina thrives in highly alkaline waters, such as those of Lake Texcoco near Tenochtitlan, today’s Mexico City. Multiple sources from the times of the Spanish conquest give evidence that the Aztecs harvested blue-green microalgae from the lake to prepare sun-dried cakes they called “tekuitlatl”.
For centuries now Spirulina has been a nutritious food source for the people from the Kanembu tribe who live on the Lake Chad. Even nowadays, it is one of their main protein sources. They use it to prepare hard cakes called “dihe”, which they dry in the sun in shallow pits along the lake shores. UN reports documented the better overall health status of the people living around the Lake Chad and eating algal cakes.
Spirulina Platensis
Imagine a food that contains potent antioxidant and has potent anti-inflammatory effects; food that strengthens the immune system, relieves allergies, stimulates the eyes and the brain; regulates cholesterol levels; discards the heavy metals from the body; gives energy to the body; has analgesic, rejuvenating effect. Scientific studies have shown that Spirulina gives the body even more.
THE GOLDEN APPLE’s Spirulina platensis contains over 68% easily absorbable proteins, thus becoming the most powerful natural source of protein. Spirulina is an excellent source of phytopigments, such as phycocyanin, chlorophyll, carotenoids (beta-carotene), zeaxanthin and other plant pigments that make it an exceptional food source. It contains all essential amino acids, unsaturated fat acids, Omega 3 and 6, a wide range of organic vitamins (mostly vitamin B 12) and minerals (iron, magnesium, calcium), and over 2,000 enzymes. It is also rich in sulpholipids, antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA).
Some of its most striking scientifically proven properties:
- Spirulina is richest in the blue pigment phycocyanin. Phycocyanin has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It is scientifically proven to block the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX-2), which in its turn is responsible for the synthesis of substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. It is known that inflammation impedes the movement of stem cells and their reaching the place that needs their help.

THE GOLDEN APPLE’s Spirulina platensis is the richest in the blue pigment phycocyanin when compared to other Spirulina and algae products on the market.
