your body and your brain will never stop, but you do have to look after them. We've got some great tips for you. Of course, taking algae is my number one tip and we'll explain why today. Yeah, I don't think that I could have done it without algae. And so I want everybody else to feel as great. I have an expression that says, it's never too late to feel great.
A little off the beaten trail. Well, I tell people I didn't pick algae, it picked me. And I couldn't imagine life without it, quite honestly. And that's why I'm so eager to help other people use it and learn about it. So I actually wrote a little book recently. It's a booklet actually called The Algae Love Story because...
My journey to discover algae and where I am now is definitely a love story. So we all love love stories, right? So it all started, I'm actually Canadian. I've lived in Boston for 35 years, although I am transitioning to Miami where there's a lot of wellness practitioners. Anyways, it all started with my love for my sister. I have two sisters.
My younger sister, 15 years ago, developed breast cancer. She's fine. I want everyone to know that. But as she was preparing for her chemotherapy, her oncologist, which is a cancer specialist, advised her to change her diet to an alkaline diet. They didn't tell her why or what it was. So my sister called me. I have an MBA.
I was doing international business, nothing to do with nutrition, but I'm a good researcher and I love my sister. So I said, I have no idea what this alkaline diet thing is, but I'll find out. And I did. And it turned out to be mostly a plant-based diet for two reasons. One is the plants have phytonutrients in chlorophyll, which have been proven to build your immune system.
And chemotherapy does cause havoc to your immune system. So I'm sure my sister's oncologist wanted her to have the strongest immune system possible. Number two, turns out that there was a German scientist by the name of Otto Warburg, who won a Nobel Prize back in the 40s for discovering that cancer cannot exist in cells that are alkaline.
And the range of alkalinity, we can get into this later in more detail. The range goes from 0 to 14. So your cells should be 7.1 to be slightly alkaline. So an alkaline diet is a plant-based diet, and the alkalinity would prevent more cancer from taking hold in other cells. So those were the two reasons I assume her oncologist wanted her to have an alkaline diet.
I did some research for her, found foods to eat, what not to eat. She did go through chemo, completely healed. And afterwards, I started reading more about plant-based nutrition, was stunned by the science I had found because I'd been always in business, not in science. And so I thought, somebody needs to tell the world about this stuff. So I'm very passionate.
I gave up my 25-year corporate career, back to school, studying nutrition.
taught nutrition, plant-based nutrition, but this is what led me to algae because as I was trying to encourage people to eat more vegetables and plants, I learned that, oh, it was too hard for them, it took too much work, or they gave them gas, or the kids wouldn't eat them, their husbands wouldn't eat them, and they went bad quickly. A thousand... you know, excuses or reasons, not excuses.
And I'm sure your listeners will feel the same way. So I thought, okay, I know what this nutrition does, this green nutrition. If I can't get people to eat more vegetables, I have to find a way to get the nutrition into them quickly, effortlessly. And so back to my research I'd done. And when I got to algae, that's when the miracle happened.
Because first of all, it's the most alkaline food in the world. That box was checked. It's been documented as being the most nutrient-dense food in the world. We have a quote from NASA that says, one gram of algae has the same nutrition as a thousand grams of vegetables. One to a thousand. That's pretty big.
The United Nations has endorsed spirulina algae since 1974, which is 50 years ago, as the answer to world hunger because it has the highest protein in the world. Not just protein, but bioavailable protein, and it's a sustainable crop. 50 years where they grow it as an agricultural crop. It's a multi-billion dollar agricultural crop there. It's been studied for over 100 years.
The benefits we're going to talk about today are documented in almost 100,000 scientific papers, none of which has been shared outside of eight. So the best part I can save to the last is that because it turns out that in Asia, they grow in freshwater. We're going to talk about that in a minute, not the ocean. And press it into little tablets like I'm showing you now.
They're about the size of a baby aspirin. And each one of these tablets has the same nutrition as an entire plate of vegetables. So while I'm talking to you right now... I just had a plate of vegetables. Wow. How easy is that?
So now you, your listeners, their family, their kids, their pets, they can have all of the nutrition that they need, plant-based protein, chlorophyll, 40 vitamins and minerals from one tablet. One tablet has the same nutrition as an entire plate of vegetables. Now there's no reason for someone to not get the nutrition that they need effortlessly. Wow.
alkaline, plant-based, high protein, 40 vitamins and minerals effortlessly. If you can swallow water, and we recommend 10 tablets of spirulina in the morning, we'll talk about why in a minute, and 10 chlorella in the evening, or for medicinal purposes, maybe 30 of each. But if you even took 10 tablets of spirulina, and we'll talk about how we sell them, That works out to a dollar a day.
We have a discount code for you. So a dollar a day to give you all the nourishment you need will replace most of your other supplements. It will replace a lot of food and it's effortless. I chew mine. I'm chewing it now. But most people do swallow it. But it's food. It's not a supplement. When we grow it, we'll talk about algae in a minute, but algae is everywhere.
It's in the oceans, the lakes and rivers and streams. But we grow it. hydroponically, which means in water, fresh water. And then we eat in Taiwan. So algae tablets are not a supplement. They're a food. They're a whole food. And we call them bits because they're bits of food.
Yeah. So algae is its own food category, first of all. Similar to, I think, mushrooms are their own food category. And within this category called algae. There's two main subcategories, macroalgae and microalgae. Macroalgae refers to that stringy stuff that you see washing up on shore, also known as seaweed. And it's called seaweed because it's only in the sea.
