Kona Spirulina Pacifica is a particular type of algae (specially bred
strain of the edible microalgae Spirulina Platensis) that is grown in
Kona, Hawaii. For easier reading on this page, we will sometimes refer
to this type of algae simply as Spirulina.

The Benefits of Kona Spirulina Pacifica
A full spectrum of nutrition from the sea: phytonutrients for endurance,
stamina and mental power, chlorophyll for cleansing, vitamins, minerals
& trace elements, enzymes, amino acids, essential fatty acids, carotenes
and sulfur-based phytonutrients support body's guarding against viruses
and cancer.
Kona Spirulina Pacifica is considered a longevity food.
Spirulina Pacifica delivers:
Antioxidant Vegetable Nutrition, Nature’s richest source of carotenoids
B-Complex Vitamins, Thiamin, Riboflavin and vitamin B-12
Iron, daily dose provides more iron than two cups of spinach
Organic Protein, richest plant source - three times that of beef
Essential Fatty Acids, nature’s anti-inflammatory.
Twice the B-12 content of liver
25 times more carotene than carrots
2 to 6 times higher in iron than beef liver
More antioxidants than regular whole food
The highest protein of any natural food (average 65%)
Easy to digest with all essential amino acids.
As a result, Spirulina is important for anyone needing additional nourishment
including dieters, athletes, convalescents and the elderly. Just six tablets
a day (3 grams) will help supply the nutrients lacking in most of our
diets.
Doctors and Scientists recommend we eat 7 to 10 servings of fruits and
vegetables every day. In real life, it doesn't always happen, and that’s
why you need Kona Spirulina Pacifica, to supply more concentrated vegetable
nutrition than any other whole food.
Nutritionists recommend increasing our intake of phytonutrients to protect
against the harmful effects of UV sunlight, pollution, and environmental
stress. Just a few grams of Kona Spirulina supplies the phytonutrients
contained in a whole salad.
This microscopic blue-green vegetable is aquatically cultivated, organically
grown, and has been used as a significant food source for centuries.
Spirulina provides a wide range of delicate phytonutrients with very
significant health benefits, including antioxidants that are known for
giving fruits and vegetables their orange and yellow colors.
The Production of Kona Spirulina
The development and perfection of this strain of edible algae started
in 1984. Kona Spirulina Pacifica has been extensively analyzed by molecular
biologists at the University of Hawaii, who identified unique enzymes
not previously found in other strains of Spirulina Platensis.
Our cultures in Hawaii represent the oldest, continuously cultivated
and harvested Spirulina in the world, made possible by Hawaii's year-round
growing conditions. An 80-acre Hawaiian oceanfront facility produces more
than 350 metric tons of premium-quality Kona Spirulina Pacifica per year.
Kona Spirulina is cultured in open, shallow ponds (approximately 8"
or 20 cm deep) adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. A combination of fresh water
and deep ocean water (source of calcium, magnesium, and all the essential
trace elements) is used to fill the ponds. A pipeline plunges 2000 feet
into the Pacific Ocean, drawing up ultra-pure, mineral rich water from
the world’s cleanest, deepest ocean. Only Kona Spirulina Pacifica
uses this nourishing source. Paddle wheels agitate the water, ensuring
even exposure of the algae to sunlight, for optimal growth and nutritional
value.
Oceanographers tell us this water has been below the surface since Old
Testament times. Deep water from the Pacific makes a very slow migration
which starts at the poles. This deep water stays in a distinct layer,
traveling like a very slowly moving river toward the tropics.
No other Spirulina is grown with such a rich source of
naturally occurring nutrients.
The other major components required for growing Kona Spirulina Pacifica
are food-grade baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and carbon dioxide. Food
grade fertilizers are used, and the deep sea water is added as a rich
source of minerals and trace elements.
Customers choose Kona Spirulina Pacifica because of the reliable supply,
consistent quality and excellent value. The Hawaiian environment and our
unique technology set Kona Spirulina Pacifica apart from the others.
Focus on Quality
The growers of Kona Spirulina Pacifica protect the algae's superb antioxidant
quality through all phases of production. We ensure that you have access
to all the nutrition available in quality Spirulina.
To reduce nutrient loss in processing, scientists developed and patented
Ocean Chill Drying. All Kona Spirulina Pacifica is dried with this process,
giving it much higher levels of nutritients. And we use glass packaging
with oxygen absorbers and sealing caps to deliver maximum quality to you.
More Nutritional Benefits of Kona Spirulina Pacifica
Spirulina is highly digestible and the most nutritious, concentrated
whole food known to mankind.
It contains a rich spectrum of available proteins and is the richest source
of beta-carotene and mixed carotenoids in the world.
It is rich in GLA, important B complexes and natural vitamin E, along
with Calcium, Iron and other essential chelated minerals and trace elements.
Spirulina is nature's richest whole-food source of the entire anti-oxidant
spectrum including: beta-carotene, vitamin E, selenium, methionine, cysteine,
super oxide dismutase, glutathionine peroxides, copper, manganese, zinc,
B-1, B-2, B-3, B-5, and B-6. It is the only source of phycocyanin, an
immune stimulant.
Spirulina is nature's richest whole food source of biochelated organic
iron: 58 times richer than raw spinach and 28 times richer than raw beef
liver.
Spirulina is nature's richest source of vitamin E: 3 times higher than
raw wheat germ, and its action in the body is 49% greater than that of
synthetic vitamin E.
Spirulina is nature's richest source of beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A)
it's 25 times higher than raw carrots! Beta-carotene in Spirulina is completely
non-toxic, even in mega doses.
Spirulina is nature's richest source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA, and
essential fatty acid): 3 times richer than Evening Primrose. The polyunsaturated
oils in spirulina contain 21% GLA (GLA is the active ingredient in evening
primrose oil - evening primrose oil contains up to 10% GLA.)
Spirulina is a rich whole food source of chlorophyll: equal to that of
alfalfa or wheat-grass.
Spirulina is nature's richest whole-food source of complete protein.
