Earthrise Spirulina
Spirulina is a “walking” green-yellow-colored vegetable!
Spirulina is a species of
seaweed belonging to the group of blue-green algae, to
which an indigenous algal species growing in Fukuoka and
Kumamoto Prefectures in Japan, called
“Suizenji-nori,”also belongs. (Regarding the academic
taxonomical classification, the spirulina variety grown
by Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, Inc (current name: DIC
Corporation) belongs to the species Arthrospira
platensis (formerly called Spirulina platensis) under
the class CYANOPHYCEAE.)
In addition to the nutritional
elements typically contained in green-yellow vegetables,
spirulina also contains high-quality proteins, and
therefore it is considered to be a holistic dietary
supplement; it has also an excellent digestive
absorption rate.
Since most of the dietary
supplement products made of DIC Spirulina are
distributed in tablet form, can be carried in the
pocket, and are easy to be swallowed, this form of
spirulina could be called a “walking” green-yellow
vegetable.
Is it the first plant or animal
which appeared on The Planet?
Blue-green algae are a group of
life forms which appeared on the Earth approximately 3.0
billion years ago, and spirulina belongs to this group.
Spirulina has since survived without much evolution
until today, and therefore it still displays primitive
features, but it is a thriving life form with an
extremely high vitality.
Spirulina is considered to have
been born before the plant and animal kingdoms split,
and therefore it is a very rare organism which has
characteristics of both plants and animals.
Spirulina is the “root of
life.”
The blue-green algae evolved
into creatures are able to assimilate the carbon dioxide
dissolved in water, which led to the formation of the
ozone layer around the Earth, and gradually they began
releasing great amounts of oxygen. This led to the
decrease in the amount of ultraviolet radiation reaching
the Earth’s surface, forming an Earth environment suited
for plants and animals to thrive. Then, the birth of
various kinds of life forms was triggered.
A blue pigment called
“phycocyanin,” which is specific to spirulina, evolved
not only into chlorophyll-a, which is essential to plant
photosynthesis, but also into the hemoglobin contained
in the red blood cells of animals.
Was spirulina used as a food in ancient times?
Spirulina is rich in protein
which is a core substance of any life forms, and the
constituent amino acids thereof are ideally balanced.
Historically, humans have
consumed spirulina as a food since tens of thousands of
years ago. Spirulina used to be a staple food, a protein
source for indigenous people inhabiting the areas around
the saline lakes in Mexico and Africa.
Is spirulina a food of the
future?
The United Nations has
conducted a research on the possible ways to combat the
upcoming population explosion and the resulting food
shortage. UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development
Organization) issued a statement in 1980, according to
which “spirulina will become an excellent food in the
future.”
NASA(National Aeronautics and
Space Administration) and JAXA (Japan Aerospace
Exploration Agency) have jointly launched a research
program to create a life support system which will allow
humans to survive in a closed space indefinitely.

Chlorella Vulgaris - South Korea
Chlorella is a single-celled
green algae with sizes of 2-10 microns in diameter. Its
high content of chlorophyll promotes vigorous
photosynthesis. Due to its superb capability of cell
division, Chlorella can survive deteriorated environment
by multiplying itself at an incredible rate. Chlorella
is a rich and balanced source of various nutrients such
as protein, essential amino acids, essential fatty
acids, vitamins, minerals and etc. By not cultivating
Chlorella outdoors in ponds but producing it in strictly
controlled indoor tanks, We ensure consistent quality
and superior hygiene. Chlorella has ranked as the top
dietary supplement in Japan for a long time. Research
suggests that Chlorella is helpful in preventing
osteoporosis and detoxifying heavy metals and dioxin.
Characteristics:
Chlorella is a single-celled
green algae with an excellent capability of cell
division.
Chlorella contains quality
proteins and approximately twenty minerals.
We ensure consistent quality
and superior hygiene by producing Chlorella in strictly
controlled indoor tanks.
Chlorella is a leading dietary supplement among Japanese
who are renowned for their longevity.
