Marine Phytoplankton contains high levels of antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory micronutrients to fuel metabolism and detoxification. Also, they stoke the fires of the Mitochondria, where cells make energy required to carry out their function. Through the process photosynthesis, marine phytoplankton harness life-sustaining solar energy.
Our in depth research has produced very compelling evidence that marine phytoplankton is highly beneficial for supporting cellular health and promoting energy and vitality.
The oldest, most complete form of nutrition available
Approximately 3.5 billion years ago, in the primordial oceans of our young planet, tiny microorganisms with the ability to convert energy from the sun into essential nutrients thrived. This marked the beginning of life on Earth. These organisms, are collectively referred to as phytoplankton.
And they continue to thrive today. The abundance of micronutrients in marine phytoplankton have been shown to help maintain human cell membranes in structure and function; a vital element for cell detoxification and the overall metabolism of human cells.
From the pristine temperate water of the Pacific Northwest comes UMAC-CORE, a concentrated blend of these minute yet mighty microorganisms. Our patent pending ingredient, Alpha 3 CMP (Concentrated Marine Phytoplankton), is a concentrated blend of marine phytoplankton species that contains dense micronutrients that support cellular health and promote energy and vitality.
COMPARISON OF PHYTOPLANKTON AND ALGAE PRODUCTS
Spirulina is blue-green algae and therefore is actually classified as Cyanobacteria. It is a
simple, one-celled form of algae that grows in warm freshwater environments. Even though
Spirulina is distantly related to the kelp algae, it is not a sea plant. The freshwater ponds and
lakes it favors are notably more alkaline than ordinary lakes and cannot sustain any other
forms of microorganisms. Spirulina is much like terrestrial plants except that it does not have a
cellulose cell wall.
Chlorella is a form of unicellular green algae found in still, freshwater; soil, or bark of trees.
Chlorella has a strong cell wall that prevents its native form from being adequately broken
down and absorbed by the human digestive system and so special processing is required to
break its cell wall.
Kelp are large macroalgae (seaweeds), belonging to the brown algae. Despite their
appearance they are not grouped with the normal aquatic or land plants. Kelp grows in
underwater forests (kelp forests) in clear, shallow, oceans, requiring water below about 20 °C;
it offers a protection to some sea creatures, or food for others. Of the more common algae
products currently on the market Kelp is correctly classified as a marine algae.
Alpha 3 CMPTM (Condensed Marine Phytoplankton) is a unique nutrient-rich blend of marine
phytoplankton harvested from the pristine temperate coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest.
What makes these temperate waters an exceptional cauldron of life is the way in which ocean
tides interact with fresh water, creating turbulence that draws even more deep water nutrients
and supporting a diverse array of marine phytoplankton species. National Geographic, (Aug.
2006). The proprietary patent pending process harvests natural seawater, capturing the
marine phytoplankton in million-liter tanks. This is the only known product to take natural
marine phytoplankton communities containing a complete suite of marine trace elements in
proportion to those found naturally in human tissue. Throughout this unique growing and
harvesting process, quality control and testing is employed to ensure the highest quality
product, providing assurance that no pathogens, toxins, heavy metals or contamination has
occurred to the natural marine phytoplankton. The concentrated paste contains a variety of
over 200 species (primarily from the larger, nutrient-rich Bacillariophyceae classification
commonly known as diatoms). Through the harvesting process the Company’s patent pending
proprietary technology breaks down the cellular walls, separating the silicate walls and
releasing the nutrients that are otherwise encapsulated. This process, unlike any other known
to man today, makes the nutrients immediately bioavailable. The raw paste at this point
contains approximately 85% water. It next goes to a state-of-the-art phytopharmaceutical
production facility, licensed and certified GMP (Good Manufacturing Processes) by Health
Canada, where it is further concentrated, passing through the highest standard quality
assurance procedures (sanitized and stabilized) to certify Alpha 3 CMPTM safe for human
consumption.
