Great stuff to build you up, especially if you get a good brand. Spirulina is grown in man-made ponds, so the nutritional value depends on the minerals used to fertilize it. Like all algae it is quite perishable, so quality varies from brand to brand. Cyanotech is probably the best. Mike Adams at http://newstarget.com has a free e-book on Spirulina and Chlorella.

As for natural sleep medication, remember to load up on the calming minerals Calcium and Magnesium. Herbal relaxants include Valerian, Hops, Passion flower, Chamomile, Lemon Balm. I just received a note from someone in my Amazon group. She told me her formerly insomniac husband gave a sample of Calmazon, which helps him, to a friend. The friend reported his first good night's sleep in many months. Please always keep in mind that different herbs/supplements react well with different people. But, I don't think you can go wrong with Spirulina! Don't be shy, it is food, eat lots. I love the list of your maternal relatives! Quebec is a fascinating place.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Hi Ien, Thank you for the wonderful information on Spirulina. When i walked in the health food store i was desperate for something to help me. One woman said to get raw sea weed...there was none there, only packaged. Then another mentioned the Spirulina, handed me the bottle and checked me out. She wasn't playing around and when i asked her where it come from she told me basically the same thing about the pond. I could care less where it's from really as long as i can take it and doesn't make me gag. The company is " NOW " , 500 MG grown in Hawaii. I have recently come off my Clonazepam and feeling ok. I tend to wake up in the morning drenched from sweating. I don't know if it's the dreams or meds or even pain i am having that does this to me. It's been going on for quite some time. I still worry with the central apnea and taking a low dose of narcotic. I have cut it in half after realizing what was going on. I have been sleeping alot thinking the lymphedema or lymes disease was doing this but now i feel differently. No wonder i was crashing on my computer waking with key board marks on my face. I had no idea it was the medication doing this to me since i use to take way more than i do now and this never happened to me. Well, now that i know the difference, i have changed afew things for the better. I still have a whole lot of work but cannot rush it. I just pray to regain some strength and hope to get out of this rotten rutt i'm in. I love working my genealogy. It's been maybe 7 years now and so much to learn. I have lost files afew diff. times due to the pc. I'll eventually get back with it in time. Time is all i have, lol. I wasn't sure what you ment by < Can you spell ADD? > Either i'm dense or just cannot think right or both, So, how many vitamins should i take? I'm taking only 1 until i hear different. I tend to not trust what the doctor's say and this will probably rub off on other things for awhile. But, you seem to know what Spirulina does and highly recommend it. I will take what you think is best for me. Thank you so much!!
