SPIRULINA FILIPINA : your true ANTI-AGING partner. Many studies have shown its ability to stimulate regeneration of tissue, accelerate the healing of wounds and inhibit the growth of some tumors. Spirulinas cell wall is also a useful source of fiber and in conjunction with chlorophyll, is valuable for detoxifying the bowel and for the treatment of constipation. Studies have also shown it can enhance the livers detoxification processes, and consequently, its reputed to be beneficial for hangovers! At Aston Villa Football Club a five-month trial compared the performance of players taking Spirulina with that of those who didnt. The results were significant according to coach Roger Spry The players taking the Spirulina seemed to have more energy and recovered from intense exercises more quickly than the others, he says. One unexpected effect was a noticeable improvement in the condition of their skin and hair. Some scientists think Spirulina may help to prevent degenerative disease and even slow down the aging process, while American researcher Dr. David Steenblock believes it has great potential in the treatment of cancer, AIDS, Epsteir Barr disease and other equally chronic viral illnesses. Chlorophyll, which you can take in supplements derived from green micro-algae and wheat grass, may also help detoxify the body. Because it absorbs and inactivates toxic materials, people have traditionally taken spirulina for their high chlorophyll content, says Ron Klatz, D.O., president of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine in Colorado Springs. The Spirulina alga has become popular because its high in chlorophyll and because of its nucleic acids, which may strengthen immunity. This research seems at best preliminary, but its reinforced by another Japanese study done with AIDS-infected mice that showed some increase in immune function when the mice were fed Spirulina (International Journal on Immunopharmacology, June 1995).
