How is Nutrition 500 Marine Phytoplankton grown?
Our Phytoplankton is grown using reactor technology. This terminology appears complex, but in the world of food science,
it means that it is grown in an enclosed system, in a pharmaceutical grade sterile environment. It is grown in a bed of
purified salt water while protected from any outdoor pollutants or contaminants. The end result is an extremely clean,
highly concentrated biomass, which is then freeze dried into a very stable powder form.
What makes our Marine Phytoplankton so special?
Our scientists in collaboration with researchers in Europe have identified the most nutritious strain of phytoplankton
among the 40,000 known strains. Our team exclusively grows this unique strain to provide the best nutrition profile and
to ensure consistency in every batch.
What is the history of Marine Phytoplankton for human consumption?
Although phytoplankton for human consumption is a relatively new discovery it is well known as a primary food source for
fish and other sea life. It influences the levels of vitamins, minerals, and essential fats, with reference to the healthy
omega 3 fats, present in fish. It is highly recommended by leading health authorities that humans consume fish at least
2-3 times weekly for health protection. Many of the reported health benefits associated with phytoplankton may partly be
attributed to its provision of vitamins, minerals, and the healthy omega 3 fats.
How long will I have to eat the Phytoplankton before I experience "results"?
You may experience results immediately, or it may take longer to experience the results you're hoping to achieve depending
on your nutritional needs. It is recommended that you take Phytoplankton for at least a month before you make any conclusions
about its nutritional benefits.
Will Marine Phytoplankton interact with any medications?
Marine Phytoplankton is a whole food supplement. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, protein, and essential
fats. Since it is a green plant food, it is known to be a source of vitamin K which may theoretically affect the therapeutic
properties of blood thinners. If taking blood thinners, use under the guidance of your health care professional. If using
any other medications, consult with your health care professional for appropriate guidance.
Why is Marine Phytoplankton so expensive?
Growing Phytoplankton is a highly specialized and a very complex process. A football field's worth of land is required
to produce 70kg in a period of 2-3 months under 24 hour monitoring with state of the art computers and highly trained
professionals. Nevertheless, those who supplement with our Marine Phytoplankton find that the value of the nutritional
benefits far outweighs the price.
Why select Marine Phytoplankton over other green food algaes such as chlorella or spirulina?
Marine Phytoplankton is the origin of all plankton. It has pigments that are unique to marine phytoplankton which no other
plant material has. It is these pigments that scientists are looking at to find out why they are so beneficial to health. Also,
spirulina and chlorella grow in fresh water. Phytoplankton, on the other hand, grows in the ocean and therefore contains an
array of minerals and other nutritional elements not found in fresh water algae. Nutrition 500 Pure Marine Phytoplankton is the
only product available that is freeze dried; this is the most stable way of preserving it for the consumer.
