Why is Klamath Lake Algae™ better than other blue-green algae products on the market?

Our expert harvesting management program and unique processing techniques are incomparable – no other harvester of Klamath Lake blue-green algae utilizes these methods. Upon extraction from the deepest waters of the lake, we immediately chill the algae and purify it through an exclusive filtering process. Solid algae is then converted to powder through our proprietary Refractance Window™ drying system. Our algae is subjected to a rigorous testing regimen at every production step to ensure our products to be the purest, freshest, and most efficacious Klamath Lake blue-green algae available.

Why is HealthyFlora™ better than other probiotic products on the market?

HealthyFlora™ is a proprietary formula containing the highest quality, most viable strains of probiotic microorganisms, specifically selected for their stability, tolerance of bile and variations in pH, and ability to survive passage through the stomach and adhere to the epithelial cells that line the intestine. Our custom formula is a blend of 2 billion colony forming units (cfu) of both Acidophilus and Bifidus per caplet– literally two products in one. Historically, capsulated probiotic health supplements have been plagued with short shelf lives when stored or displayed at room temperature. HealthyFlora is manufacturered using the LiveBac® process which results in a caplet with a one-year shelf life at room temperature. Over 20 shelf life investigations have verified the stability of LiveBac® caplets when used with a variety of lactic acid organisms. The LiveBac® technique represents a significant advancement in the evolution of viable health supplement probiotics.
