What Is Aphanizomenon-Flos-Aquae (AFA)?
Once upon a time a life form known
as a fresh water seaweed or Aphanizomenon Flos Aqua began to grow upon the
earth. It was so hearty that it has lived through extreme environmental changes
up to this day! Because of its high nutrient content, it can pass some of its
fortitude on to any living thing that eats it. Aphanizomenon Flos Aqua, or AFA,
is at the base of the food chain. Klamath Lake in Oregon is one of the
only places on Earth that has the ideal ecosystem to support this wild food.
If you were to take some lava ash
and human ash, you would find them to be almost identical in composition. This
wild super food, Aphanizomenon Flos Aqua, feeds on up to a 35 foot layer of
lava ash in the lake bottom. It has recently been found that the composition of
this wild food closely mimics breast milk, one of nature's most powerful immune
enhancers.
About 7,000 years ago Mount Mazama,
currently Crater Lake, was a volcano that erupted with a force some 300 times
more powerful than Mt. Saint Helens. Through some many rivers and springs this
lava ash, packed with nutrients, brings this source of life down into Klamath
Lake, empowering this wild super food daily.
You see, the food we buy
commercially does provide us with some benefits, but it is also tainted with
commercial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides. Food that is
accessed via agri-business derives its source of nutrients from the soil. The
next best scenario is food organically grown, but still at best, it is only as
good as its nutrient source.
By combining AFA in our diets, we
access a source of nutrients that are derived from one of the most nutrient
rich substances on the planet (lava ash). This wild super food, actually fresh
water seaweed, being one of the highest sources of chlorophyll, may cleanse,
nourish, and rejuvenate the body along with the mind.
Does AFA cure? No! You can only cure
ham or leather. If the body has the ability to heal itself, the balanced
nutrients in this wild super food may support the body to do its own work. The
body always strives for balance, and even though fresh water seaweed does not
heal, it feeds the body what it needs so that it may maintain the immune
system. Even though a person does not dramatically change their diet,
eating this food can and may help the body to more easily achieve balance. You
may notice that you gravitate more towards eating vegetables as you eat the AFA.
Your body will tell you what it needs. Listen to it.
