Do you know why the supplementation with Spirulina had this affect? Is it the micro nutrients and or variety of minerals they provide that seems to help the immune system or something else entirely?
It is probably more than just micronutrients. Polysaccharides, phycocyanin, glycolipids and sulfolipids identified the spirulina platensis increase immunity by enhancing bone marrow reproduction, growth of thymus and spleen and biosynthesis of serum proteins. The spirulina also has been shown to have antiviral mechanisms possibly by inhibiting the virus from attaching and penetrating to cell membranes and thus cannot infect the cell.
C-Phycocyanin; the molecule that pinpoints NADPH oxidase as central to disease processes and its inhibition now therapeutic.
I really did not see this coming, I though Spirulina would have just been some hippy thing to consume for the B12 that is kinda healthy (like chlorella turned out to be) but then C-Phycocyanin showed up and rocked my world.
I love this compound.
And yes, there is a study saying this can reduce arsenic buildup in the body. Guess what compound actually has evidence for detoxification rather than just being needlessly said to ‘detoxify’? This guy.
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.
I give a special increased priority to my supporters who message me through Patreon, so please consider making use of their messaging system by pledging a small amount to support my website.
