All green foods are good for you, but Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica™ is by far the best. Hawaiian Spirulina has the highest carotenoid, antioxidant and phytonutrient levels of any green food, surpassing chlorella, wheat grass, barley grass, kamut and all other brands of Spirulina. Plus Spirulina is the only green food that contains phycocyanin, a water soluble antioxidant that has anti-viral properties and has been shown to help protect the liver and kidneys. Phycocyanin also has other important health benefits including immune enhancement properties and anti-inflammatory activity. Hawaiian Spirulina has been produced on the pristine Kona coast of Hawaii's Big Island for over 20 years. This location was chosen because it is an ideal place to grow algae, with plenty of sunshine, clean air and pure water to make the highest quality product. To protect key nutrients against oxidation during drying, the producers of Hawaiian Spirulina developed and patented the Ocean Chill Drying method, which dries Spirulina in three seconds in only 1% oxygen. The result is a product with much higher antioxidant and enzyme levels than any other Spirulina. Cyanotech uses two water sources to product Spirulina: Deep ocean water from 2000 feet below the ocean's surface that contains 94 minerals and trace elements, and drinking water from the Hawaiian aquifer. To our knowledge, Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica is the only brand in the world that uses water that Cyanotech pays for; other farms use river water or irrigation water. In order to get a pure, quality Spirulina, you must start with pure water - a critical difference between Hawaiian Spirulina and others. Lastly, Hawaiian Spirulina has obtained GRAS status from the US FDA. GRAS means "Generally Recognized as Safe" for use in all food, beverage or human supplement applications. Foreign Spirulina producers do not have this status--another clear indication that by buying Hawaiian Spirulina you are getting the cleanest, purest Spirulina in the world!
