Red Marine Algae - Gigartina One

From the makers of Modifilian comes another superb sea algae product:

Gigartina One™ Red Marine Algae

Gigartina One™ is pure Red Marine Algae, species of gigartina papaillata. This product is not a blend and contains no fillers, it is pure high grade red marine algae. Being a sea vegetable Red Marine Algae is rich in a variety of beneficial nutrients including vitamins A and B12, minerals such as potassium, magnesium, iron and calcium. Gigartina One is also abundant in trace minerals, fatty acids and essential amino acids as well as being a good source of iodine, which may benefit certain thyroid disorders. And it is also a source of sulfated polysacchrides.

Our Red Marine Algae is wild harvested in the Tasmanian Sea (off the coast New Zealand) and is bottled in Oregon, USA by Gigartina One.

Sulfated Polysacchrides

The sulfated polysacchrides is the real star nutrient in Red Marine Algae. So now you must be wondering what are "sulfated polysaccharides"? Good question. Sulfated refers to the mineral sulfur and polysaccharides translates to multi (poly) sugars (saccharides). In short these are sulfur containing multi chained sugars. And, these compounds have been found to improve the body's immune response.
 
One thing this product is noted for is its effects on reducing the incidences and severity of cold sores. Cold sores are caused by the Herpes Simplex Virus which affects millions of people. Cold sores can occur on the mouth, eyes or the face and is estimated to be present in 50-80 percent of the adult population. The HSV2 which causes genital herpes is estimated to be present in about 1/3 of the population, with approximately 500,000 new American teens being diagnosed every year.

Research has been conducted on Gigartina to study its calming effects on the Herpes Simplex Virus. This research has revealed that Red Marine Algae can stimulate an immune response that will fight the virus and keep it at bay. And it has also been shown to reduce the amount of colonies in an outbreak, thus reducing the severity of an outbreak.*

Directions:
Use Two capsules a day to prevent a possible cold sore outbreak and if you are suffering from an outbreak increase the dosage to 5-6 capsules a day. You can also open the capsule and apply the Red Marine Algae powder directly to a herpes lesions. Gigartina is natural and safe and can be taken with other western medications. If you are infected with the Herpes Simplex Virus, my recommendation is that you give it a try.
