About Algae
Klamath Blue Green Algae is the most
nutrient dense food on the planet,
containing glyco-proteins, vitamins,
minerals, simple carbohydrates, lipids
and biologically active enzymes. Due to
the algae's nutritious soft cell wall,
these nutrients are readily available to
the body. As the body uses only a small
amount of energy to convert this
superfood into fuel, consuming Klamath
Blue Green Algae is a fast, efficient
and energizing way to improve any diet.
The discovery of the incredible food
value concentrated in AFA, Aphanizomenon
Flos Aquae, an ancient blue-green
microalgae, has popularized this
nutrient dense whole food that contains
more protein, B12 and chlorophyll than
any other food source. Klamath Blue
Green Algae has such a complete
nutritional profile, available in forms
that are directly accessible and easily
superior to any other algae on the
market and has become the focus of much
attention in the health food industry.

Algae capitalize
on the direct energy of the sun more
than any other food. Primitive as they
may appear, most are highly efficient
photosynthesizers. Algae utilize light
energy from the sun (greater than 10%
conversion efficiency), carbon dioxide
from the air, and hydrogen from the
water to synthesize its bio-chemicals.
Klamath Blue Green Algae is unique
among all food grade algaes in that it
also metabolizes molecular nitrogen
directly from the air to produce
proteins and other nitrogen containing
bio-molecules.
Among the several families of algae,
Klamath Blue Green Algae is in the
class: cyano-bacteria. Like a string
of pearls, their cells have a
gelatinous cell wall surrounding the
chloroplast and a protoplast DNA
container. Algae are a class by
themselves, exhibiting the
characteristics of both plant and
animal.
Klamath Blue Green
Algae is a wild, fresh water algae
growing in natural abundance in Upper
Klamath Lake. The precipitation that
falls on the Southern Oregon Cascade
Mountains washes tons of mineral-rich
volcanic soil into the alkaline lake
annually. This mineral-rich water,
clean air, and high intensity sunlight
make the unique ecosystem of Upper
Klamath Lake the most perfect growth
medium for A.F.A.
Klamath Blue Green Algae, unlike
cultivated algae, is a naturally
occurring perennial. Its survival
depends on the heartiest strain
reproducing itself, and its uncanny
ability to communicate environmental
and other conditions to each strand in
the bloom. During Early Autumn, the
algae reproduces itself every four
days, creating a massive bloom of up
to 200 million pounds annually.
Klamath Blue Green Algae is harvested
fresh from the lake on a daily basis,
screened to remove debris and excess
water, fresh micro-filtered to be free
of potential contaminants, then flash
frozen and stored at -40º F until
processing. Klamath Blue Green Algae
is thoroughly laboratory tested, low
temperature dried, never heat
processed, and retains most of its
biologically active vital nutrients in
a naturally balanced profile.
