Spirulina. The Super Food Of The Future. 螺旋藻。未来的超级食物。

Introducing one of the oldest organisms on earth and subsequently it is also debatably the healthiest single item food ever.
向大家介绍一种世界上最古老的生物之一,它也被认为可能是有史以来最健康的单项食品。

I wrote this post 2 years ago, how things have changed since then. I still want to share my past insights with you since many have not seen my older post back when Steemit was just a few months old. It was aback when I had my post translated to reach a larger audience.

Heal your body, enlighten your soul and boost your energy.
医治你的身体,启发你的灵魂,提高你的能量。

Spirulina is a type algae, it has been found in fossils dating back billions of years all the way to the dawn of life on earth. It’s no wonder why it’s so good for all life to eat, as all life evolved in tandem with this microscopic organism.
螺旋藻是一种藻类,从已发现的化石判断出它的历史可以追溯到距今几十亿年前地球上刚有生命的时候。这也难怪为什么对所有的生物来说吃它都非常有好处,因为所有的生物都和这一微生物一起共同进化。

What makes it a Super Food?
是什么使得它成为一个超级食物?

It’s loaded with more nutrients and protein per gram than any other food we know of. It’s 60% protein by weight!! The best alternative to eating meat and losing weight nature can provide. It’s even use to feed livestock due to its large amount of protein.
它体内所含的营养和蛋白质的比例比我们已知的任何其他食物都要高。它体重的60%都是蛋白质!!它是大自然所能提供的既吃能肉又可以减肥的最佳选择。由于其大量的蛋白质,它甚至可以用来喂牲口。

The United Nations declared it vital to human diet and will lead the way to fight malnutrition around the world. China is the world’s second largest producer mostly in Hainan for its ideal weather, after Hawaii the global leader.
联合国宣布它对人类的饮食非常重要,并将会对世界各地营养不良的问题提供解决办法。中国是世界上螺旋藻第二大生产国,具体产地主要集中在海南,因为那里的天气非常利于螺旋藻生长.而全球最大的产地是夏威夷。

Eating one gram of dried powdered Spirulina by adding it to a salad or smoothie, anything not cooked, is the same as eating 1 kilo of assorted veggies and fruits. Cooking kills its power like kryptonite and Superman. It’s an amazing way to stay slim and healthy.
将1克晒干的螺旋藻粉添加到沙拉或冰沙中,无需任何烹调,就相当于吃1公斤的各类蔬菜和水果。这真的是保持苗条和健康的一个神奇的方式但是要注意的是,如果你烹饪它效果往往会适得其反,这种关系就像氪石和超人一样。

Here are some of Spirulina’s Best Super Powers for your health.
下面是螺旋藻对你的健康所能产生的一些超级功效。
1st
Absorbs and dispels toxins.
吸收和驱散毒素。

First and most important I think is its ability to absorb toxins and heavy metals from your blood and remove them. Almost all drinking water around the world has trace amount s of heavy metals. Even the best state funded filtering systems are unable to remove all traces, this applies globally, none of the developed countries are 100% clean. Spirulina will remove those trace amounts from your blood.
首先,也是最重要的,我认为是它能够吸收你的血液中的毒素和重金属,并去除它们。几乎在世界各地所有饮用水中都能发现微量重金属。即使是由最好的国家资助的过滤系统也无法去除所有的痕迹,这在全球范围内都是如此,没有一个发达国家的饮用水是100%干净的。而螺旋藻可以从你的血液中去除这些微量重金属。

Second
Scientifically proven to help prevent cancer.
科学证明,可以帮助预防癌症。

Also helps reduce and in some cases has cured HIV. It is being supplied by the UN to AIDS effected places in Africa with amazing results especially in children.
也有助于减少并在某些情况下已治愈了HIV。它正由联合国提供给非洲受艾滋病影响的地方并取得了惊人的结果,尤其是对于儿童。

Lowers blood pressure and reduces Cholesterol
降低血压和降低胆固醇

This is good news for overweight and people who don’t exercise regularly. However please exercise; diets will never work without exercise.
这对于超重和不经常锻炼的人是个好消息。但还是请锻炼身体;饮食绝不可能在人们不锻炼的情况下起作用。

Fourth
Good for your eyes.
对你的眼睛有益。

OMG! That will be awesome. Did you make that? Good invention.

hi @ Solarguy ! the nice post about food and health!

The Spirulina I've known are already in food supplement bottles. It surely has plenty of health benefits. I'm really curious of trying the fresh ones, I just don't know where to find them here. It looks quite similar to algaes I see in our fish aquarium before when I was home.

I've had managed scrolling down to your post up to the intro lol =) So I thought of sharing this link for everyone too about your post 2 years ago: Growing Spirulina at Home. =)

https://steemit.com/science/@solarguy/growing-organic-spirulina-at-home

So many different types of Algae out there. Some have been genetically modified to do anything from be food to fuel and all the stuff in between. PH would be a great place to grow this outdoors.

I've been wanting to grow spirulina in Canada. I have everything I need, except for the cultures. And those are impossible to get.

Oh cool so since you have all the stuff what system you going to be cultivating with?

Since I don't have the most important part of the system, the living culture itself, I won't be cultivating anything.

One of the reasons it's difficult to buy live cultures is because so many strains are copy righted to specific companies. Even a little bit, like a ounces, an be cultivated into barrels in and than sold to the masses. So these algae companies want people to pay them more money if they produce more than they use themselves.

I was heavily invested in starting a spirulina farm a couple years ago and traveled to WuHan in China to meet some of the world's top scientists in the field. YOu can check out those posts here if you're interested. There maybe some links in there that lead to where you can live cultures.

https://steemit.com/science/@solarguy/bio-fuels-for-carbon-capture-using-algae

I know you can get small samples from a company in Texas but the name alludes me at the moment. Your best bet to get live cultures near you, is to get on some Spirulina forums, which you might be already, and ask people there if they can send you some from there own supply, make a deal. ^^

Also you can buy live cultures on Amazon used to feed fish. Though if it takes more than 3 days to arrive the culture could dead or most it. Best to do that in the summer as Spirulina dies in cold weather. The stuff they feed fish is the same people eat. ^^

I didn't about this food sir... but after your explanation i would say that it is surely good for health. I will try to find. Btw thank for the unique healthy food post.😊

It really helps your day if you take t with breakfast.

Thanks for sharing helpful post.i like this food.
Thank you
