To Ethospete,
I have tried a few different forms of marine Phytoplankton in the past. The most popular here is "UMAC Core". Me and others i know did not see much difference taking the product. I have taking it in liquid and powder capsules.
Nothing against your product, just some of my experience. Also Phytoplankton can get pricey too. Not sure what the price of you stuff is. Do you have a link to the website.
Also your other recommendation "Endymion" seems to be an an amino acid. Please note that taking single amino acids are not always the best approach and should not be taking long term.
Also note that "Chia" is a complete protein, so it contains all the amino acids you body needs ;)
Phytoplankton may be something to add to the protocols one day. Lets find more success stories!
Hi Kevin
Yes, 100% pure Phytoplankton is very expensive and is also in very short supply. Because of this most companies mix it so that they can put 100% pure Phytoplankton on their label even though it only contains just a very small percentage of 100% pure phytoplankton due to a loophole in labeling regulations.
Unless it has changed since I last researched it, UMAC's 500mg 'Phytoplankton' capsules only contained 50mg of 100% pure phytoplankton and 450mg of spirulina which is a cheap and abundant micro-algae.
'Frequensea' is another supplier who sell a 100% pure phytoplankton drink which again contains only a very small token amount of 100% phytoplankton - you'd need to drink about 20 bottles a day to get our recommended daily dose and one bottle is sold as a months supply.
So people using these products will not see good results the same as the people sharing their success stories who have been taking much larger doses.
You can read more on my Phytoplankton website here:
http://marinephytoplankton.net/There's also another great success story there from Kelly Barrows:
http://marinephytoplankton.net/phytoplankton_testimonials.phpAlso, there are over 40,000 different strains of Phytoplankton and not all of them are good for humans.
Nannochloropsis Gaditana has been chosen as the very best strain for humans:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nannochloropsis'It is different from other related microalgae in that it lacks chlorophyll b and c. Nannochloropsis is able to build up a high concentration of a range of pigments such as
astaxanthin, zeaxanthin and canthaxanthin.'
This is what sets our product apart from all the other products out there on the market. So, when comparing costs, be sure to compare 'like for like' and make sure that you are getting
100% Pure Nannochloropsis Gaditana micronised-powder with nothing whatsoever added or taken away, exactly the way mother nature intended it to be.
I've also attached our certificate of analysis.
Regarding 'Endymion', it is a dipeptide of the two amino acids Beta Alanine and L-Histidine covalently bonded together. It is unique in the fact that it is the only product commercially available anywhere in the world which has been proved scientifically to actually rejuvenate human cells - it extends the Hayflick factor which is the number of times that a cell can multiply and divide before it dies.
It also increases the body's own stem cell production which are the basic building blocks of life as these cells can go on to become any part of the body where regeneration is needed the most.
It also increases the length of our telomeres. Telomeres are small ‘zipper-like’ capsules which bind together the genetic material of our DNA and enable precise cellular reproduction. Each time a cell replicates, its telomere shortens and this diminishes the overall life-expectancy of the cell; so it can be likened to a biological counter which counts the number of times that the cell has already replicated. When there is no more telomere left then the cell has come to the end of its life-cycle and then cell-death quickly ensues. A recent study, published in the journal of Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis & Vascular Biology, has found a direct coloration between the shortening of the telomere and the risk of developing heart disease, the chances of suffering a heart attack as well as premature death from all other causes. So, by studying telomere length, we can now help to diagnose and predict these things in advance before they happen.
So all these combined factors mean that it truly is anti-aging - for more information see the article on my health blog website I wrote back in March of this year on the subject -
http://ethos.ag/healthblog/l-carnosines-fight-against-premature-agingI've been taking high doses (10g+ per day) of it since I first learned about it and its many amazing benefits from Professor Gallant back in 2003 and many people say I look younger now than I did back then... and that's 9 years ago now! I truly believe that there are two types of people in this world; those who supplement with Endymion daily... and those who just don't have all of the facts yet. So do your own research and peel back the layers and hopefully you'll very soon start to agree with me.
I hope you find this interesting...
All the very best

It also works with pets and other animals which takes away the theory that it might just be psychosomatic or a placebo effect...
“the Labrador had completely recovered and the tumour had disappeared…”
We had a call today from Georgina, one of our customers. She told me about the family Labrador that had been diagnosed with a serious cancer that had created a tumour in its neck the size of a tennis ball. The Vet quoted around £10,000 to remove the tumour, although he said there was no guarantee of success. The dog was given just 6 weeks to live if the tumour was not removed. That sum of money was not affordable for the family and they began seeking alternatives.
Then the owner read about marine phytoplankton on the internet, and ordered our capsules. Within a short time – taking 4 capsules per day – the Labrador had completely recovered and the tumour had disappeared. The Labrador is now fit and healthy! The Vet described the recovery as a “miracle” as he had never seen anything like it before.
So what is the take-home message?…
marine phytoplankton does not directly treat or cure anything; it works because it supplies the body with a combination of phyto-chemicals that help the immune system – human or animal – to fight back against something even as serious as terminal cancer. Doctors who are not trained in nutritional therapy often try to persuade our customers to STOP TAKING nutrient-dense whole foods like marine phytoplankton because they say that certain types of foods could make their toxic medicines less effective. They are entitled to their opinion…
