Re:Win / Win... gender differences?

[Guest guest]

Could both positions possibly be true?

I can see that if other food is not available, algea is the most

complete wholistic food for the body...

And at the same time, it may not be as complete in the same way as some other

combinations of vitamins, etc.   It could really depend on how you both define

your terms.

Carol, I understand why algae is good for you, but not why you strongly

adhere to the theory that it is a complete nutritional solution and no other

supplement would be required, when the theory is unsupported by company

literature and nutritional analyses. Please tell us you're not " teaching " people

that, Carol!

all good,

Duncan

still attacking my " theory " , as you call it, because you just have no clue as to

the merits of the product. There is no way I can teach people about whole food

supplements if they are not willing to learn. You do not hear/understand what I

am saying.

Don, the reason both positions can't possibly be true is that the claim that

this particular blue-green algae was nutritionally complete without requiring

any supplementation, contradicting both the company data and the research data,

which agree that it contains only traces or less of some important nutrients,

like any other food or superfood.

I agree with getting the terms properly defined, so I got Carol to repeat her

claim of nutritional completeness without any supplemtation; this she did

without ambiguity.

As to being the most complete of the whole foods, all of whioh have their

deficiencies, maybe, maybe not. No direct comparison has been made between the

various genuine algaes, chlorophyll-containing bacteria such as blue green

algae, and other bacteria that are being used or being considered as food, but

there are a lot of research documents that laid down the data.

Regardless, it's all about concentration, and even at large servings the US

military could not use algae exclusively without running into deficiencies.

If one had to choose only one food to live on on the proverbial desert island,

mine would be full fat undenatured whey, which is a near-perfect match to the

biological requirements of mammals. I think it would allow me to outlast anyone

who is on exclusively algae, because I wouldn't be experiencing the dietary

deficencies in branched chain amino acids, essential fatty acids and bonded

cysteine, all of which are very low in algae and high in whey.

all good,

Duncan

Hi Duncan,

COMMENT:

Would not colostrum be a better choice? It is a complete food (as I understand

it) for both young and old, plus anti-aging.

I've never thought of colostrum as a staple food because an IGF-1 dose of 5

times what a body builder takes could be a problem. If it's not, then yes

colostrum would be a good choice but I don't have the details handy for a direct

comparison.

all good,

Duncan
