OK - Here it is again - apparently you did not see it before:

 

Response from the company to Health Canada Concerns:

 

(May 7, 1999) (like I said, these claims have all been addressed

satisfactorily some time ago)

 

A recent announcement by Health Canada should serve to remind us all

how GOOD it is to be associated with our company and to be confident

in the quality of our product.

 

The announcement says Health Canada plans to conduct " a survey of

products containing blue-green algae to determine how many are on

the market, in what forms they are sold, and the levels of

microcystins they contain. "

 

Microcystin is a toxin that can be produced by an algae called

Microcystis. It CANNOT be produced by Blue Green Algae. However, it

may be present as a contamination, which is why we test both its

harvest and its product to be sure regulatory guidelines are

enforced and there is no microcystin contamination of our products.

 

This was NOT reported in the Health Canada press release. Nor was

the perfect record of many algae manufacturers mentioned. The Health

Canada press release merely advised people that the agency believes

there may be potential toxicity associated with blue-green algae

products.

 

For more than 15 years we have been a leader in developing and

enforcing quality standards in the harvesting and manufacturing of

blue-green algae. Secondly, in the entire history of our company and

the millions of dollars of sales and the hundreds of thousands of

customers, there has never been an illness linked with any of our

products.

 

But even more importantly, over the last 5 years we have been

working in cooperation with the world's leading algologists and

several federal and state agencies to develop industry standards

based on our own quality control and demands for purity.

 

Not only are we in full compliance with the standards deemed

appropriate by the international scientific community for algae

products, we constantly monitor the lake to be certain the ecosystem

in which we harvest our algae is maintained; and we have been

congratulated by state authorities for our involvement in

maintaining and even improving that ecosystem.

 

Are there companies out there that are less attentive to quality

standards than we are? Perhaps. If so, we hope Health Canada

discovers and reveals them... just as we urge Health Canada to

report the quality of the products and the care taken by us at

harvesting and marketing blue-green algae.

 

That's why we support and encourage any study that serves to

strengthen the quality and standards of blue-green algae harvesting

and product manufacturing. We will always have the ONLY Super Blue

Green Algae... but we want everyone to adopt our standards for

purity and responsibility.

 

Until then, we will all continue to trust in the testimonials of

hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers and the nearly two

decades of FLAWLESS HISTORY. The bottom line is that we have

participated in some of the most profound transformations in

people's health and the quality of their lives ever witnessed as the

result of nutritional supplementation. To cause people to doubt the

experience of their own bodies is like yelling fire in a crowded

theater when there is no threat of fire: it's irresponsible.

 

All that we ask is that regulators be as responsible as we are. And

all you need to do to know how responsible we have been is to

read " The History of Quality Control in the Manufacturing of Blue

Green Algae of Klamath Falls, Oregon, USA. "
