Note:The testimonials on this website are not
intended to imply that Spirulina can cure or prevent any disease, nor
are they intended as an aid in diagnosing or treating any disease.
People taking Spirulina report finding relief from arthritis and
other painful conditions, seeing improvement in skin conditions, feeling
more energetic, losing weight, and generally experiencing an increased
sense of well-being.
Here are some excerpts from letters that were sent to the offices of
the manufacturer, Cyanotech in Hawaii. While these are not scientific
studies, they do show how people feel a difference in their health when
using Spirulina.
Arthritic Condition: Reiters Syndrome
I just wanted to let you know how Spirulina changed my life. Two and a
half years ago, when I was 29, I developed a painful arthritic
condition known as Reiter's Syndrome. My doctor gave me a prescription
drug which only upset my stomach and gave me vertigo. By this time, I
was finding it difficult to sleep, let alone walk, and I was forced to
quit my job. Then my doctor gave me another prescription drug which
brought me some relief during the acute stage. The main drawback,
besides its exorbitant price, was that it was very hard on my stomach. I
spent the next six months in a state of nausea. I was able to walk
short distances but it still hurt like hell.
Then one day a friend gave me some Spirulina; after a few days
something wonderful happened – I realized I had no pain. I didn't
attribute it to the Spirulina, however – I thought it was a natural
occurrence. After a few weeks, I ran out of Spirulina, and sure enough,
those nagging aches began to return. After a few painful days, I finally
hit myself on the head and said, "It was the Spirulina!"
Since that day, about 6 months ago, I've never been without
Spirulina. Not only has my arthritis disappeared, my overall mental and
physical state is better. Thanks to Spirulina, I wake up each morning
feeling fine and able to do things I was afraid I would never be able to
do again. What can I say? Spirulina is the greatest! (M. Simon,
Fullerton, CA)
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
These wonderful tablets gave me back my strength. I suffered from
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I will never quit taking your tablets. (H.
Nowak,Helen, GA)
Energy/Resistance to Illness
I seem to be more energetic. I have better resistance to illness—it boosts my immune system. (Carlene Kreetlove, Mazomani, WI)
Eyesight/Skin/Menstrual Pains
Spirulina in tablets and powder has helped me and my family a lot. My
eyesight has recovered from blurred vision. I have very tight sleep.
Most of my pimples are gone and my face became more beautiful, not only
because of moothskin, but my eyes sparkle and dark spots around my eyes
are gone. My menstruation pains are totally gone also. I feel really
better. Thanks to Spirulina and God for such a wonderful discovery.
(Ellen Dimabayao, Los Angeles, CA)
Body Pains
This is an excellent product which has put the desire to live back in
me. Before I started the tablets I was so iserable with pain of all
kinds all over my body, shooting pains, tired pain in my hip, aches in
my calves.
I am now improved so that I can exercise, which is also good for me. My
diet has not changed much nor my dication for diabetes and hypertension.
However, my feeling is vastly different. I have told many others and
started my two sisters and a fellow worker on it. I hope they are helped
by it too, although mine was an extreme case which medical doctors and
chiropractors couldn't seem to help. (M. Honmyo, Seattle, WA)
Energy/Appetite Suppressant/Mental & Cognitive
I am a Nutritional Health Advisor, Chef, Yoga Practitioner and
Teacher, 50 Drummer and Writer. In over ten years of veganism I have
tried many brands of Spirulina and Nutrex [Hawaiian] is by far the
freshest and most potent form available on the market today. This has
been confirmed by many nutritionist and scientist colleagues of mine. As
a raw and living foodist, I consume Spirulina almost every day and it
is one of my main sources of protein. I will never forget the first time
I tried Nutrex Hawaiian Spirulina; I had boundless energy, my appetite
decreased and I finally felt like my brain was functioning adequately.
This product has increased my mental and cognitive capacities
remarkably! If you want to understand what is meant by the statement “we
use less than 2% of our brain,” try this product and you will feel
yourself accessing the remaining 98%. (Shanti Devi Michal, New York
City)
Dark Spots on Face
A couple of months before I started taking Spirulina, my doctor
warned me to watch a couple of dark spots on my face. These spots were
presumably caused by sun exposure damaging my skin. After my wife saw
Spirulina ommended by a news letter, we both added it to our diet. To my
delight the spots on my face got smaller and disappeared after just a
few months. (Emil Eastburn, Westford, MA)
Leg Pain
I am seventy years of age. At the time [I started taking Spirulina
tablets] I was having severe pain in my knees and legs, which became
much worse when I would lay down. I couldn't kneel and had difficulty
even bending my knees. Now I am able to bend my knees and even do knee
bends. I am very happy to say I no longer have the pains in my knees. I
am so happy to have discovered these miracle tablets. I feel so much
better, not only with my knees and legs, but also in my general health.
(N. Behling, Palm Bay, FL)
Internal Hemorrhoids
My husband has internal hemorrhoids and Spirulina has controlled them remarkably. (Paula Cramer, Salt Lake City, UT)
Energy/Mental Acuity/Immune System
I have a higher level of energy and mental acuity. It appears to strengthen my immune system. (Pete Bauer, Mazomani, WI)
Neck Pain
Several years ago, I took [a prescription drug] for severe neck pain.
I stopped taking it when my sister told me about Spirulina. I seldom
have any discomfort in this area now. [The prescription drug] was not
nearly as effective as Spirulina. (N. Hawkins, Indio, CA)
Pre-Menstrual Syndrome/Appetite Suppressant
Nutrex Spirulina [Hawaiian] has been like a miracle cure for the
severe PMS symptoms I suffered with for years. It’s helped to ease
tension and insomnia. Also it has acted as an appetite suppressant. I am
very grateful. Thanks. (Victoria Yiannatsis, Rehoboth Beach, DE)
Arthritis/Energy
I am a 63 year old woman, have always been very active, and still
have a cleaning service where I do a lot of the work myself. I've known
for several years that I have the telltale signs of arthritis, the
swollen joints in my fingers and a very tender lump on one of my
knuckles. I was beginning to think I would have to give up my business
as I was in so much pain, especially in my hands. Also, my ankles made a
cracking noise when I walked. A friend of mine told me about Spirulina
and I thought, well I might as well give it a try. After taking
Spirulina for three weeks, the first thing I noticed was that all the
soreness and pain were gone from my hands and that my ankles didn't make
a noise when I walked. After my second bottle, I could work eight and
ten hours straight and still no pain. I was out of Spirulina after my
third bottle and after two weeks the soreness and pain had returned.
After starting back on Spirulina, within four days all the swelling and
pain are gone. I have more energy and just feel better all over. I've
stopped taking all my other vitamins. moning and three at bedtime works
best for me. I've recommended Spirulina to several of my friends and
family members who are now taking it with positive results. I know for
myself I don't want to be without Spirulina again. (A. Walls, Melbourne,
FL)
Strength/Energy
I wish to tell you how much I appreciate the introduction to your
Spirulina. I first became aware of the product when I asked a neighbor
what her secret was in keeping in such good shape and how she gets so
much energy. She told me that she had eaten your Spirulina for one year,
and gets the energy from this product. I was at that time in the
process of moving, and was afraid, by doing all the work myself, I would
hurt myself again, especially my shoulders (bursitis), and back (old
age, I guess). I am 59 years old. I started to eat 6 Spirulina tablets
daily, two weeks before moving. Needless to say, I got through all with
flying colors, experienced strength I had not known for a long time.
Thank you for making this product available to me. I feel younger,
better, stronger, can work better with more energy. I am recommending
your Spirulina to my friends, and for a good deed, I get them started
with a first supply. (E. Corderoy, Hilo, HI)
Resistance to Colds/Energy/Pain
I have been taking Spirulina for six months. Mostly six tablets a
day, sometimes more. I started taking your Spirulina when I had a
painful condition in my right knee from what I thought was arthritis.
Within two weeks, I had no pain left. It also gave me so much energy. I
have not been hungry between meals. I also noticed that I do not get
colds and that during the flu season, even though I was in contact with
my family who did have the flu, I did not get it. I know that when I
forget to take Spirulina my symptoms returned. I know this natural
product is from God. I recommend it to anyone. Thank you. (C.B. Lang,
lndiatlantic, FL)
Arthritis
I am 64 years of age and have had a bone density test. They
determined I have arthritis in two vertebrae, pelvic bone, and knee
joint. I was in so much pain it was hard to walk any distance and had
trouble sleeping, as I would wake with severe pain in my entire right
leg. When I first heard about Spirulina I did not think it would work
but I was willing to give it a try. After three weeks, I can now walk
two miles without pain. I thank God for Spirulina and for Clara who told
me about it. (L. Enmon,Ontario, Canada)
Stamina/Energy
I feel better in the mornings and have more stamina and energy. (D. Waki, Wailuku, HI)
Cancer/Macular Degeneration/Pain
When I was 65, I had a routine physical exam and blood test at the VA
Hospital in Honolulu. A few days later the doctor called me and said
something seemed wrong with my blood. He was sending the sample to the
military hospital (the Tripler Army Hospital and Medical Center). I
became scared. After that the doctors sent me for more tests at the
oncology department blood lab. They took ten blood samples during three
days of tests, including bone scans. These tests were sent for analysis
and profiles on the blood plasma cells. They found too many antibodies
and too much protein in the blood. The tests, the doctors said, meant
that I had multiple myeloma. He said to me, “I’ve got bad news, this is
cancer of the blood and there is no cure for it. You will be dead in
four months.”I not only felt rotten by this time because of the
diagnosis, I just felt rotten in my body. I looked like a scarecrow. I
had lost lots of weight. I often felt like keeling over when I was
standing. I had no energy. During this time I had to go to Honolulu
every month for analysis and treatment. I did that for about a year. The
doctor had not started me on chemotherapy in the first few months. I
had heard of wheatgrass and the effects its high content of chlorophyll
had on the blood. I had started taking wheat grass juice very early
after my diagnosis. I drank at least two, eight ounce glasses a day for
almost a year. I even grew the wheatgrass myself.
Tests showed that my health condition sort of maintained itself
during the wheatgrass time, but I still felt rotten. I prayed every day.
My tests involved bone lesions, nuclear isotope bone scans, and all
during the later six months he kept testing my blood, weight, and more
blood tests. The protein levels and antibodies had stabilized, and the
myeloma was not progressing. And I wasn’t dead. The doc said I didn’t
need any chemo right now. By this time, I had given up on wheatgrass,
and for three months had been taking Spirulina. I started taking six
tablets a day, but that didn’t seem right, so I took ten per day. Ten
made me feel stronger, less nervous, and I began to feel more relaxed. I
was physically stronger.
I think the Spirulina was working because of its whole food aspects:
The vitamin B complex, the proteins, the essential amino acids, and the
chlorophyll. The rotten feeling I had in my body never came back after I
started taking Spirulina. I started gaining weight back. I feel like a
25 year old, and I am 70! I think Spirulina cures and prevents cancer.
It is a wonderful supplement for anything. Chlorophyll helps clean out
the arteries, and Spirulina is very high in chlorophyll. It is grown in
such intense sun. I felt so good about Spirulina that when a friend of
ours for over twenty years began to have constant pain, I had to tell
her about it. This friend is 80 years old, the wife of a probate judge.
She began to have constant pain in all her muscles and she couldn’t
sleep. She saw four different doctors, but they could not figure it out.
Each time we saw her, she was worse. I told her she should take
Spirulina, and about the story of taking ten tablets a day. She started
taking the dosage. In one month she gained ten pounds. I asked her how
she felt, and she said she felt young again. She no longer sat with her
arms folded up or walked hunched over. Her husband started taking
Spirulina, and he feels much better too. I feel the Spirulina saved her
from a lot of pain and made the quality of her life better. One more
health benefit from Spirulina: For ten years I was going to the
Vitreoretinal Foundation in Tennessee for my eyes. I had a cataract
removed ten years ago and had a retinal tear and laser treatment. Then
three years ago I had a diagnosis of macular degeneration. I would see
telephone polls with a crook in them. My center vision was faded. I had
tunnel vision. The doctors said it couldnot be stopped; there is no
cure. During the time I had been taking Spirulina, and three years after
the iagnosis, I had my eyes reexamined for a determination of the
health of the retinal cells. The doctor looked it over and then he said,
“Amazing! Your retina is not worse. In fact, it’s better.” I can now
see poles with no center vision problems. I attribute the regeneration
of my macular cells to Spirulina. (David Schrieber, Keaau, HI)
Spirulina Testimonials from Around the World
Exhaustion/Energy
I have a 7:30 to 5 PM job. When I come home I still do my household
chores, and still have time to spend with my three children aged 22, 19
and 17. Thanks to Spirulina I have so much more patience from not
feeling exhausted anymore. I feel wonderful, energized, I feel l can
handle anything; I just take four tablets in the morning and four in the
afternoon. If it can help me in my serious condition, I am sure it can
help others with all their complaints. Once again thank you Spirulina by
Marcus Rohrer [Hawaiian]. (Mrs. Latiff, Johannesburg, South Africa)
Sports Training
I use Spirulina simply because it works and it is 100% natural. I
feel fitter, have a better resistance and recover more quickly after
exertion, whether it is a heavy training session or a match. My last
condition test showed clearly that I had more stamina than last year.
(Erwin Koeman, Dutch National Soccer Team, Holland)
Diabetes
I am a juvenile diabetic patient. After I have started taking
Spirulina Pacifica [Hawaiian], I have found an amazing result. My
fasting blood sugar count has come down from 294 mg to 120 mg. Thank you
very much. (Mohua Dasgupta, Kolkata, India)
Digestion/Energy
Over the past year I have been taking Hawaiian Spirulina to
neutralize ome serious health problems. About four years ago I
contracted acute and aggressive Ulcerative Colitis, necessitating the
complete removal of my large intestine. In my particular case, this
played havoc with my digestive system, especially in the area of
essential nutrients. During these last four years I have tried many
health products and supplements and have had few permanent benefits.
Most of these products helped for a short term, but were unable to
sustain that on a continuing basis. Since discovering Hawaiian
Spirulina, I have appreciated its benefits over an entire year. Its
effects have not diminished, and I have found this to be a major source
of my nutritional intake. Since taking Hawaiian Spirulina, I have felt
myself being able to increase my energy levels and feel it has helped in
my general lifestyle. (Marie Cleanthous, St. Georges, South Australia)
Feel Younger/Hair, Skin and Nails
I am 78 years of age and have been on Spirulina for over a year and
find it highly beneficial. Since being on Marcus Rohrer Spirulina
[Hawaiian], I have had no flu, my hair has stopped falling out and it is
shiny and healthy. My nails are not cracking and they are healthy. My
complexion, which was sallow, has become radiant. The tablets are
pleasant to take. I am very active with lots of energy and feel like a
man 20 years younger. I feel that this is largely due to Spirulina and I
can highly recommend it. Thank you Spirulina! (Bob Lipman, Cape Town,
South Africa)
Recovery from Operation
Last year I had to have a back operation. A big operation at my age,
because at 62 you are not young any more. My surgeon advised me to take
Marcus Rohrer Spirulina [Hawaiian] to help me get my strength back
quickly. I must say – it was a golden tip! (Mr. Verheyen, Lille,
Belgium)
Zest for Life
It was six months ago that my husband and I started taking the little
green pills every morning, while the ongoing reaction from friends
included remarks like “It’s psychological” – “It’s all in the mind” –
“Impossible” – magination.”Now, these same friends are also experiencing
the same zest for life thanks to Spirulina Marcus Rohrer (S. Kotze,
Kraaifontein, South Africa)
“Physical Enrichment Without Being Rich”
I am not affluent and cannot afford a rich diet for my family. But
Spirulina Pacifica [Hawaiian] has taken worries off e. Today with this
Spirulina Pacifica every member of my family is physically enriched
without being rich. Thank you Spirulina Pacifica. (Indranath Mondal,
Sonarpur, India)
Weight Loss
Taking Spirulina by Marcus Rohrer, I easily managed to lose 15 pounds
and I feel a lot fitter. I have a busy job as a representative and
often felt tired and was overweight. I had tried everything, also
homeopathic remedies, but nothing helped. I will certainly continue to
use Spirulina. (Mrs. Van Arendonk, Haarlem, The Netherlands)
Spirulina Worked a Miracle for Me
I am an 83-year old lady living in my own in a flat. Last year I
landed up in hospital after I fell one night and became very ill with
bronchitis. When I was discharged I was very weak and frail. I was able
to shuffle around with the aid of two crutches and only with extreme
difficulty; I was so weak I wished that I would die. My daughter-in-law
works in a pharmacy and she had heard all about Spirulina by Marcus
Rohrer [Hawaiian]. She bought me a little bottle and after a few days I
was truly amazed at the change in my condition. I have become more
mobile and hardly need to use the crutches anymore. My blood pressure
has never been so stable and I am certainly more alert. Several people
have remarked on the improvement in my condition and are amazed at the
change in me. I can only attribute this to the Spirulina and I want to
thank you for this excellent product which has truly worked a miracle
for me. (Mrs. Stevens, Durban, South Africa)
Energy/Endurance
I am a national level swimmer currently in the Australian Telstra
Dolphins Swim Team. I have been selected in the Australian Under 18 Team
that competed in the Sydney Youth Olympics 2001. I have only been using
Spirulina for a short time but believe it has helped greatly with
training and recovery. It gives me more energy and endurance. I recently
swam a 2 km time trial with a 30 second personal best. (David Cox,
Beechboro, West Australia)
Sports Training/Energy
I have been taking Marcus Rohrer Spirulina for over four years now. I
have been participating in sports since I was 8. At age 12 I was
training for football 5 times a week. I have been skateboarding for the
past two years and I train very intensively. After being on my board for
5 to 6 hours I can feel every bone and muscle in my body. I then often
take almost 20 Spirulina tablets and quickly feel energetic again.
Spirulina has helped me a lot: Injuries like bruising and grazes heal
really quickly and I am never troubled by growing pains. Before I go to
school in the orning I often just drink water and take a handful of
Spirulina. That keeps me fit all morning. (Felix Nissen, 14 years old,
Aurich, Germany)
Appetite Suppressant/Healing after Operation
I think Spirulina by Marcus Rohrer is the miracle pill in the dark
blue bottle. I had to have breast surgery in July and I wanted to be
strong and healthy beforehand, so I took 6 pills a day. A week after my
operation I had to go back to the plastic surgeon to see how I was
healing. Well you would not believe what he said. He said that in all
the years he has been in practice he has never seen anyone heal so
quickly after an operation. My scars had closed completely and there
were no complications. I put it all down to the effects Spirulina had on
my body. I never get colds or flu and I have also got my husband on
them. He was never a man for pills or vitamins and he swears by them. He
tells all his friends about them. Another reason why I use Spirulina is
the fact that it actually reduces my appetite the natural way. I seldom
feel hungry between meals. (Mrs. J. Joaquim, Durban, South Africa)
Energy
I study, work as a photo model and take part in sports often.
Combining all this takes a lot of energy. Since I have been taking
Spirulina by Marcus Rohrer, I have been able to cope easily with my
active lifestyle. To keep my energy level up I started to search for a
supplement. Preferably something that was 100% natural. Friends advised
me to try Marcus Rohrer Spirulina. A golden tip! You do not notice the
effects of Spirulina immediately. You must use it for a couple of weeks.
Then you really notice the effects. For 18 months now I have been
bursting with energy and can concentrate really well. Also, following a
busy day modeling or studying I still have enough energy left to enjoy
sport. Spirulina fits in perfectly with my lifestyle: Easy, natural and
very effective. Really great! (Charlotte van Zomeren, Amsterdam,
Holland)
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Hawaiian Spirulina! Have you heard of it? I would like to inform
every person out there of this wonderful natural health food that comes
in powder or tablet form. Some years ago after running my swimwear shop
alone for 13 years, I was completely exhausted and had chronic fatigue
syndrome. I had to sell up and take two years out of my life trying to
get better. Doctors can do nothing for you. My son had heard about
Hawaiian Spirulina and bought some. As each week went by I became
stronger and happier and got into lifeagain, my dark hair became shiny
again, my nails grew stronger. I SWEAR BY SPIRULINA and have been taking
it for 6 years now. I look at the cost as a wonderful way to eat
healthy. As I am now 61 years of age and want to always do the most with
my life, I will always take Spirulina. I have introduced it to all my
family and friends and have watched them all sparkle with health and
energy. Why don’t you do yourself a favor also? (Carol Prowse, Holloways
Beach, Cairns, Australia)
Olympic Swimmer
Spirulina gave me the recovery between sets to push even harder,
improving my focus and boosting my immunity. It enabled me to fulfill
the ultimate dream in any sportsman’s life…The Olympics! I am greatly
impressed with Spirulina and from my experience there is no equal. Thank
you Marcus Rohrer. (Theo Verster, Olympic Swimmer, South Africa)
Spirulina Brings Sunshine into my Life
When I take Marcus Rohrer Spirulina I notice that everything seems to
become easier for me. I have more energy and life moves smoothly along.
I am more cheerful and feel more optimistic about life. When I
experience disappointments, I am better able to sort things out. The
benefits of Spirulina are most noticeable when one stops taking it. I
then feel more tired and down in the dumps. Spirulina really brings
sunshine into my life. (Heidi G, 32 years old, Hoogstaten, Belgium)
Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar
I am 63 years old and have been suffering from blood sugar and high
blood pressure. Thank you for Spirulina Pacifica which has brought both
sugar and pressure under control. Thank you again. (T.P.V. Rao, Kolkata,
India)
Marathon and Triathlon Athlete
Real fitness is not about training – it’s the speed of recovery after
exercise that counts and determines one’s level of fitness. Spirulina
by Marcus Rohrer has been my helping hand through all my training and
competing. It gives me the recovery time and fitness that I need. (Nick
Bester, professional Ultra Marathon and Triathlon athlete, South Africa)
