Dr. Berzin, named one of TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People, shares insights from his journey from MIT's Center for Space Research to becoming a leading figure in sustainability and biotechnology. Dr. Berzin explains the unique properties of microalgae, emphasizing its efficiency in photosynthesis and ability to produce 100% nutrition with zero waste. They discuss the critical nutrients found in microalgae, such as Omega-3s, Vitamin B12, and bioavailable iron—essential for overall health, especially for women. Dr. Berzin highlights the shortcomings of traditional food sources like meat and plant-based foods, where much of the plant material becomes waste. He also discusses how fish derive their Omega-3s from algae, and how humans can skip the middleman by going straight to the source with microalgae supplements. The conversation shifts to Orlo Nutrition, where Dr. Berzin leads efforts in producing algae-based products sustainably. He discusses how VAXA’s innovative technology ensures a consistent quality of microalgae and eliminates issues like unpleasant taste and odor, making the products not only nutritious but also enjoyable to consume. Dr. Tassone and Dr. Berzin explore how algae-based products from Orlo are made with minimal environmental impact, emphasizing the use of geothermal energy in Iceland to achieve a carbon-neutral or even carbon-negative footprint.Key Topics Discussed:The nutritional power of microalgae: Omega-3s, Vitamin B12, and bioavailable ironMicroalgae as a sustainable solution with zero wasteHow Orlo Nutrition's algae products maintain consistent, high-quality nutritionThe innovative production process at Orlo that makes microalgae supplements more palatableThe environmental sustainability of algae farming with a carbon-neutral or carbon-negative footprintNotable Quotes:“Microalgae are world champions in photosynthesis—100% nutrition, no waste.” – Dr. Isaac Berzin“Iron in spirulina is 6.5 times more bioavailable than in beef.” – Dr. Isaac Berzin“The algae production phase is carbon-negative.
