You love itThe energy-giving and healing properties of E3Live need to be experienced to be believed. This AFA algae, harvested from the wild in its 100% organic natural state, comes to you directly from southern Oregon's extraordinary Upper Klamath Lake.

The world's only truly live AFA algae

For the first time in history, AFA algae -- nature's most basic food -- is available in its most vitally alive, liquid form.

If you'd like to lift your life, then try E3Live now.

"There is no other blue-green algae that is as alive and active as E3Live. Of all the algae coming out of Klamath Lake, E3Live has the strongest positive effects."
-- Dr Gabriel Cousens, MD

What is E3Live?

Upper Klamath LakeMuch has been learned about the true value of this amazing food since it became available as a food source 20 years ago. There are more benefits being discovered every day as this algae is introduced to the medical and scientific societies.

Dr Gabriel Cousens, MD, in his article in Body, Mind Spirit in April 1995 said:

"The greatest value of AFA is not only its dense nutrient concentration or even its high neuropeptide precursors, but in its amazing positive effect on the nervous system."

People taking AFA have consistently reported:

  • an overall increase in mental alertness
  • overall increase in mental stamina
  • short and long term memory improved
  • problem solving
  • creativity
  • dream recall
  • greater sense of centeredness

He also reports that algae has helped his clients with many issues that (under UK law) we're not allowed to tell you about. We suggest you do your own research here.

Everyone, regardless of their state of health, could find it adds a boost to their lives. Older people may find their mental acuity return as a result of eating Aphanizomenon flos-aquae. Try applying it to wounds, and see algae's positive and fast acting effects.

Suggestions for use of E3Live

How do I eat E3Live?

Some folks love E3Live's natural taste and drink it undiluted. Others prefer to mix E3Live with their favourite juice or pure water. E3Live should always be kept cold to maintain its freshness, vitality and nutritional value.

How much E3Live should I eat per day?

No two bodies are alike. For most people on a "not so great diet," we recommend starting with a small amount, say, half to 1 teaspoon per day. Beginning with small quantities minimises any possible temporary symptoms associated with your body's "housecleaning" of stored toxins. On the other hand, some people may need to eat E3Live in more liberal quantities to really feel the difference and drink several ounces a day whenever they need a boost. Work your way up at your own pace. Trust your intuition.

How do I keep E3Live fresh?

When defrosted and kept in a refrigerator, E3Live's shelf-life is approximately 10 days. In your freezer, it will last a full two years or longer. When you are ready to defrost a bottle of E3Live, first let it thaw out in your refrigerator. Then pour off what you think you'll use for a week or so and re-freeze the rest until you need more. E3Live can be thawed and re-frozen several times, as it always remains sufficiently cold.

Complete Nutrition From E3Live
Klamath Blue Green Algae -- Simply the Best

The discovery of this ancient strain of blue-green micro-algae Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) has led to a new ecstatic food that contains more protein and chlorophyll than any other food source. Primitive as algae may appear, most are highly efficient photo synthesizers, even more so than plants. Algae utilise light energy from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and hydrogen from the water to synthesise proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. E3Live grows only in the wild and is far superior to any other algae on the planet. It is nature's perfect food.

E3Live is unique among all food grade algae's in that it also metabolises molecular nitrogen from the air to produce its proteins and other nitrogen containing bio-molecules. The AFA cell is truly awe inspiring. Although hundreds of times smaller than the cells of the plant or animal kingdoms, its wide range of sixty-four micro-nutrients is remarkable and unsurpassed by any known food. It should be no surprise that the nucleic acids of AFA algae also bio-stimulate the immune system.

About the brain

The brain is the most undernourished organ in the body. Although it comprises only 2% of the total body weight, it uses 20% of the body's available energy resources. Each of its estimated 10 billion neurons has an insatiable appetite which must be satisfied every minute of every day of our lives. AFA metabolises molecular nitrogen directly from the air. This growth pattern allows for the bio-synthesis of Low Molecular Weight Peptide Groups. These low molecular weight peptides are the precursors of neurotransmitters, which are used by various regions of the brain and body to initiate the secretion of other substances (such as hormones) that influence metabolic functions.

Neurotransmitters can be seen as the chemical link whereby neurons communicate with one another. The ability of the brain neurons to manufacture and utilize neurotransmitters is dependent upon the concentration of amino acids in the bloodstream. This largely depends upon the food consumption of the previous meal.

The importance of proteins and amino acids

All of the body's basic biochemical processes require energy to occur. It is from the ingestion of various food substances that the required amount of energy is obtained. The central part of the body's energy package that provides for the replication and repair of cells, organs and organ systems is protein. Next to water, protein is the most abundant substance in a healthy human body. It comprises a major portion of the blood and lymph and creates a natural immunity by giving the body a means of recognising invading foreign cells and viruses.

Proteins are made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks of the body. Proteins comprise 90% of the hemoglobin and form the backbone of the body's immune system. The algae contains more protein than any other organism (plant or animal). There are 22 amino acids; 8 of these are essential and must be obtained from our foods. Without proper quantities of all the amino acids, health cannot be maintained. When improper amounts of amino acids are consumed, the less important body tissues are "cannibalised" causing premature aging and possible severe deficiencies, such as lack of motivation, loss of memory, low mental alertness, poor intellectual performance and depression. What is truly unique about the algae is that its amino acid profile is almost identical to that found in our body, making E3Live one of nature's perfect foods.

Foundation food

Research has shown it's not only what you eat, but what your body absorbs and assimilates that is important. Micro-algae, existing at the beginning of the food chain, provide nutrition in its simplest form balanced whole food nutrition that is easily digested and absorbed. E3Live has a soft cell wall that is easily digested by the body. This allows rapid absorption of vital nutrients with 97% assimilation. This algae, harvested from the wild in its 100% organic natural state, comes to you directly from southern Oregon's extraordinary Upper Klamath Lake. Located at 4000 feet in elevation, the lake is far away from any large cities that might pollute the air and water, and it is also entirely surrounded by the Cascade Mountains. This unique ecosystem of mineral-rich water, clean air and high intensity sunlight makes Upper Klamath Lake the perfect growth medium for this nutrient-dense whole food.

Aphanizomenon flos-aquae from Klamath Lake is the very best that algae can be. It is the most fundamental food on the planet; there is simply nothing else like it. Algae has been harvested and eaten for centuries and yet, until recently, its immense nutritional value has mostly gone unrecognised. Now, science has begun to focus their attention on the nutritional potential of algae because of global hunger, shrinking resources, depleted lands, etc. The results of this research and testing have been impressive enough for UC Irvine scientists to call it a "Super Food, capable of contributing to the achievement and maintenance of wellness".

The importance of vitamins

Vitamins are essential to human life. They are organic compounds necessary in small amounts to promote growth and maintenance of life. They do not provide energy, nor do they construct or build any part of the body. They are needed to transform food into energy for the body. E3Live contains a complete balance of vitamins except for vitamins D and E. Spending time outdoors in the sun provides a source for vitamin D, where it is formed in the skin by ultra violet rays. Eating high chlorophyll foods helps produce vitamin E in the body.

Vitamins
(per 1 gram of algae)
Provitamin A (beta carotene) 2400.00 IU
Thiamine B1 4.80 mcg
Riboflavin B2 57.40 mcg

Choline 2.30 mg
Pantothenic Acid 6.80 mcg
Biotin 0.33 mcg
Vitamin E 0.13 IU
Inositol 0.35 mg

The importance of chlorophyll

Chlorophyll is a very important part of the algae. Its molecular structure is almost the same as that of the hemoglobin, which is responsible for carrying throughout the body. Oxygen is the prime nutrient, and chlorophyll is the central molecule for increasing the oxygen availability to your system. Chlorophyll is vital for the body's rapid assimilation of amino acids. Algae is the highest know source of chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll content
(per 10 grams)
E3 AFA Algae 300 mg
Spirulina 115 mg
Chlorella 280 mg
Barley Grass 149 mg
Wheat Grass 55 mg

The importance of organic minerals

Minerals are important to the overall functioning of the mind and body. They have two general body functions - building and regulating. Without minerals, vitamins have no function. Minerals help build the skeleton and all soft tissues, and regulate heartbeat, blood clotting, internal pressure of body fluids, nerve response and oxygen transport from the lungs to the tissues. E3Live contains almost every organic mineral in trace amounts, which is what the body must have to function well. Minerals can literally make all the difference to our health. While the minerals only represent about one percent or less of our daily food intake, without them we cannot utilise our food, and we would quickly perish.

Minerals
(per 1 gram of algae)
Boron 10.00 mg Calcium 14.00 mg
Chlorine 464.00 mcg Chromium 0.53 mcg
Cobalt 2.00 mcg Copper 4.00 mcg
Germanium 38.00 mcg Flourine 0.27 mcg
Iodine 0.53 mcg Iron 350.70 mcg
Magnesium 2.20 mg Manganese 32.00 mcg

Selenium 0.67 mcg Silicon 186.70 mcg
Sodium 2.70 mg Tin 0.50 mcg
Titanium 23.30 mcg Vanadium 2.70 mcg
Zinc 18.70 mcg    

The importance of beta carotene

The body uses beta carotene to produce its own vitamin A. Because the body converts beta carotene into vitamin A only as needed, there is no threat of toxic build up. The beta carotene in E3Live is probably one of the most powerful natural antioxidants known today. However, the potential healing properties of beta carotene are maximized ONLY when other precious carotenoids are also present. E3Live contains dozens of carotenoids, all able to neutralise the deleterious effects of dangerous free radicals. In the past 25 years, twenty-four worldwide studies have looked at beta carotene. All findings are consistent. Leading research authorities have shown that people who consume higher-than-average amounts of foods rich in beta carotene are healthier.

The importance of pure water

We can go without food for weeks but without water we die of dehydration in a few days. Over two thirds of our body is water, yet most of us don't clearly understand the importance of drinking pure water (no chlorine, no chemicals, no bacteria or chemicals.) Water is the most abundant compound in the human body and is necessary for:

  • Digestion of food
  • Regulation of body temperature
  • Transport of food to the tissues
  • Elimination of toxins and body wastes
  • Circulation of body fluids (like blood and lymph)
  • Lubricant in the joints and internal organs - keeping them moist
  • Permitting the passage of substances between the cells and blood vessels

Water is part of the blood system holding dissolved minerals, like calcium and magnesium, in solution and making them available to body tissues where they are required for proper health. When water consumption is limited, the body robs some areas to protect different tissues and organs, which results in pain, tissue damage, and a variety of common health problems. All too frequently we tend to confuse thirst with hunger and instead of drinking water, we eat, leading to weight gain. Your body needs a minimum of 1/2 ounce of pure water, per pound of body weight, per day.

The bottom line

The western food supply is highly refined, processed, genetically altered and nutrient deficient. All of these factors negatively affect our bodies over time. It is very difficult to eat and stay healthy on the typical UK diet. Over-production of our farmlands have depleted the soils, causing our foods to be nutrient deficient. If we don't get enough nutrients, we can't be 100% well. Dr Stanley S Bass, ND, DC, PhC says: "The closer the food comes to the natural state in which it occurs, or the closer we come to its raw, unfired form, the higher its quality is. In this condition, all the enzymes are found intact. The amino acids are in their finest form. The minerals, vitamins, trace elements, carbohydrates and life force are present. This life force is, in turn, capable of reproducing tissue which is full of life and longer lasting in structure. Eating organically grown unprocessed foods, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds provides your body nutrients that are free of herbicides, pesticides and preservatives."

E3Live Aphanizomenon flos-aquae is nature's most basic food. It exists at the beginning of the food chain, provides perfect nutrition and contains more protein than other whole foods. This super nutrition provides rich naturally occurring Chlorophyll. Chlorophyll has been shown to enhance your entire health and boosts the immune system. This amazing food can also help to purify the blood, promote intestinal regularity and naturally help heal the body.

Good nutrition is the first step toward a long and happy life!

Is all AFA algae the same?

The benefits of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (Blue-Green Algae) are directly proportional to the quality and exact source of the algae.

Unless you know the source of the algae, there is no guarantee of quality. E3Live has been harvested from the purest and healthiest algae from the deepest waters of the Upper Klamath Lake. We bring you the most potent algae available.

Testimonials and articles

Here are just some of the great results people have experienced with E3Live. But don't just take their word for it -- try it for yourself today!

Studies using AFA blue-green algae have been conducted.

One such study involved 109 children with an average age of 9 years. At the end of a ten-week study, parents reported "significant improvement in the ability to focus, follow directions, and concentrate... fewer symptoms of anxiety and depression and behavioral withdrawal." Teachers involved in the study also reported "an improvement in the ability to focus and concentrate"a reduction in aggressive and acting out behaviors." The results of this study indicate that "significant positive changes in children" were evident across a wide range of behaviors" [and] that all children might increase their ability to concentrate and focus as AFA blue-green algae is added to their diet."(1)

Hair, skin and nails

E3 Aphanizomenon flos-aquae = Optimal Health

Have you ever been complimented on the healthy glow of your skin, hair, and nails?

If not, you are not alone. Statistics show nearly 183 million Americans are deficient in the vitamins and minerals vital to beautiful skin, hair and nails.

The nutrients you receive from AFA make your hair, nails and skin beautiful and healthy.

It makes sense that if the body needs vitamins and minerals to maintain health, your hair and nails need them too. After all, hair and nails are an extension of the body. Like your skin, they are an expression of your overall health. E3 will stimulate hair and nail growth. Also, it provides energy and natural antioxidants to the skin, creating a younger and more supple look.

Not only can E3 Aphanizomenon flos-aquae be used as a supplement, but it will compliment and formulate into many topical applied products for skin care and hair nutrition.

"My eyesight started to change"

12th September 1998

"I have always required large doses of insulin, and for the past three years I am requiring an average of 50 units of insulin per day. My eyesight has grown worse the last few years, to the point that I was nearly blind. Five years ago, the doctor diagnosed me with Diabetic Retinopathy, and I was treated with Panretinal Laser Photo-coagulation. After this procedure I was able to see again, but the side effects of the laser surgery included loss of my peripheral vision and a complete loss of night vision. For an extended period of time I have relied on my family members to drive me around due to my blood sugar levels fluctuating so severely and rapidly. Since childhood my blood sugars have been out of control and I have even lapsed into a diabetic coma.

I began eating E3 algae two months ago. I started by taking 500mg per day, and by the end of the first week I noticed something truly amazing. My insulin requirement was cut in half! During the second week of eating E3, I increased my algae intake to 1 gram (1000mg) per day. At this point, my insulin intake is remaining steady around 30 units per day.

By the end of the second week, something even more amazing happened to me. My eyesight started to change. I started to get back some of the peripheral vision that I lost due to the laser surgery, and for the first time in five years, I am able to see my children in a low-lit room at night. Before I had to turn on the light or use a flashlight to check on my kids. Since then my eyes have continued to improve and I am able to drive in the dark again. I have much more energy than I have ever had before. (My son even tells people that they should take algae like his mom, so they have lots of energy to play with him.)

It has now been two months, and I have worked my way up to 2 grams of E3 algae per day. I have tried eating more algae, but I got to the point that I was requiring more insulin, so I went back to two grams per day. My insulin intake is remaining steady at 30 units per day with nearly zero fluctuation. The pain in my legs and feet from neuropathy is about half of what it was, and I now have energy to get up and go all day long. I am now able to go to town by myself without worrying about blood sugar reactions, or poor eyesight. The days I require more insulin are the days that I'm not getting enough exercise."

Sincerely, Tracy Slaybaugh

"Considerable reduction in my insulin"

3rd December 1998

(Susan L. has been eating E3 AFA Algae for four months.)

"I have always had trouble trying to keep my blood sugars regulated since I was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes 19 years ago. I have tried many of the diets, and none have ever came close to controlling the blood sugars like the E3 Algae has. I have had a considerable reduction in my insulin since I began taking the Algae a few months ago, and my night vision has improved as well. The Algae has made an incredible difference in my diabetes. I want every diabetic to have an opportunity to try the Algae like I have. Perhaps they will have some of the same benefits as I have received. Thank you to everyone at Vision, for sharing the Algae with me."

Yours truly, Susan Lynn

"My insulin doses have decreased"

2nd March 1999

"To all diabetics that are contemplating the use of E3 algae: I have been a diabetic for 29 years. I have had a number of different insulin's and a number of different doses in the past. About two months ago I started using the E3 algae and my insulin doses have decreased, as well as my blood sugars. I found that with the use of the E3 algae I had more energy as well as less stress due to the high sugar levels that I had occurring before the use of the algae. I would strongly recommend to any or all diabetics to try the algae and find out for themselves the change it can make in their daily activities as well as the change in their life styles."

Robert Strome

Note: Not every individual will respond to E3 AFA Algae the same manner. The nutritional benefits received will vary for each individual. We suggest that you work closely with your physician when eating the E3 Algae, because of the change in blood sugars that people have experienced

Grant HackettGrant Hackett -- Olympic long distance swimmer

4th August 2000

Leading up to the Olympics my training schedule is full on. After the last training session each day I feel pretty drained.

Since I started with E3 algae I've noticed a big difference. My recovery is so much quicker than before and I have a lot more energy.

About a week after I started eating E3, I swam a lead up competition in Brisbane. I had some E3 just before the 400metres. I was amazed at how good I felt throughout the swim but in particular the last 100m. I felt very powerful and even though I came home in really good time I had a little bit in reserve. I also felt really good in the 200m and the 1500m. Generally I felt excellent over the whole meet.

Usually competition takes a lot out of me. It's hard to recover after a demanding meet and almost impossible to get through the first couple of days training without hurting, but this time I'm doing it a lot easier.

E3 is helping me in a lot more ways. Apart from better recovery and endurance I feel it's easier to concentrate and my temperament is great. I feel calm and content even if things don't always go my way. I even noticed the difference when I missed having my E3 for only a day.

Because I have been training so hard I felt that I was losing weight and condition. After only 2 weeks on the algae you can notice the difference in my pecs and abs. I have a lot more muscle definition. I think it's because I'm getting so much protein and nutrients from E3 that I wasn't getting before. I'm not as hungry any more.

I'm so happy to have E3 as a part of my diet now. What I like about E3 is that it's totally natural.

It's a really awesome food.

I have always found the hard work on the training field come easily, however all the health and nutrition surrounding peak performance was the last thing on my mind at the end of a hard day.

E3 has made the uptake of many different supplements easy for me to manage by combining many of the different supplements I was preciously taking in one simple dosage.

Having used E3 now in my nutrition, I have found that I am far less susceptible to fatigue related sicknesses like common colds and flu.

E3's ability to be absorbed so quickly into my system, eliminates all the uneasy effects that most heavier supplement powders and slowly digesting pills can sometimes cause.

All these components combined have led me to believe that such a high source of sustenance, holds a benefit to anyone wishing to provide their body with a natural intake of the most nutrient dense substance's imaginable.

Horse Performance & Recovery

Within this section, you will find information on: Thoroughbred Race Horses, Farriers and Hoof Care, and even a little on Warmblood Horses.

If you, or someone you know has a horse with one of the following conditions, they need E3Live to heal the horse in a very short time of just 6-12 weeks in most cases:
  • Laminitis
  • White Line
  • Abscess
  • Fungal
  • Cracked or Shelly Hooves
  • In most cases significant recovery in Foundered Horses

Proven Safe ! Over 2 million pounds consumed - 96% by humans. Our E3 Earth's Essential Elements Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, wild grown and natural!

World Champion Athletes attributed Aphanizomenon flos-aquae for winning performances.

If we said that we discovered that E3 Aphanizomenon flos-aquae:
  • Allows your horse to perform at its peak
  • Supports the immune system, making your horse less susceptible to stress related illnesses and viruses
  • Aids in repairing damage from Laminitis, Fungal, Abscess, and Whiteline Disease
  • Improves Hoof Quality -- Dapples out your horse

  • Marked Improvement of baby and mother during weaning
  • Provides nutrition that no other food is capable of matching
  • Is part of the daily feed program of many of the nations top Championship Horses

Would you believe us? Don't just take our word for it!

Here is what a few of the experts will tell you about E3...

"If someone were to ask me the most significant benefit to our Thoroughbred race horses that are eating E3, is that E3 enables them to perform at their class level peak. Nutrition is everything."

Ian Wilkes
Assistant Trainer for Carl Nafzgarin Kentucky

"I have never seen anything like this. I can't tell you the difference the algae has made in the weaning of the colts and in the mothers. I had a case of Laminitis. It is gone and the hooves are better than they ever were before. Also, I feed E3, to my top Champion Fox Terriers. The 2 1/2 week old pups are so far advanced that I am amazed. I took them to my veterinarian and he said he has never seen anything like this either. I am feeding the algae to all of my animals. It has made a big difference."

Angel Usategui
World Champion Paso Fino Owner/Breeder, Florida

"My horses display a sense of wellbeing. E3 makes the horses better focused and prepared for training. They perform at their peak. Their coats and hooves have shown a marked improvement as well. They have increased stamina."

Carl A. Nafzgar
noted Trainer/Owner, author of "Traits of a Winner", trainer for Kentucky Derby Winner - Unbridled, Trainer of Eclipse Award Winner - Banshee Breeze, and Vicar Winner of Fountain of Youth, GR1 Florida Derby

I met Jean Brooks from the American Warmblood Society in 1998 at Equitana. She said that she would find a horse using E3, and tell the results; this is what she published in theAWB Whisperer: "The AWS National Breeding Director, Nikki Atwell, purchased a TB mare that was underweight and in the last trimester of her pregnancy in 1997. This mare ate twice as much as all the other horses and would not gain weight. The foal was born and they both were underweight. The E3, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae was started as soon as it arrived to help the foal and the mare gain weight soon after the foaling. After a couple of months the mare gained weight while nursing a now, large foal, and again in foal herself. Our Vet couldn't believe the difference in the mare's condition. The mare's hoof condition has improved, hoof wall improved dramatically, but the most noticeable change is her coat's iridescence. The E3 AFA has helped to create a healthy, vigorous horse from the inside out."

Quoted from Jean Brooks
Publisher

"Coat shines, eyes are bright, main and tail grow more profusely and hooves are strong and solid."

Captain Stephen B. Sloane,
USN, Ret., Professor of Political Science Owner of Rancho Luna Azul, Therapeutic Riding School for Mentally Handicapped.

"You will earn more money and your reputation will improve when your horses look their best, perform attheir peak, and their immune system fights off disease."

"Our horses have more stamina and they bounce back quicker after racing"

Carl A. Nafzger
Trainer of Eclipse Award Winner - Banshee Breeze andVicar - Winner of Fountain of Youth, GR1 Florida Derby

The nutrient composition of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae can be seen on the E3-Breakdown page. It contains every trace mineral, every amino acid, every vitamin.

That's over 64 Micro-nutrients ! A few examples include:

  • Glycine - Calms the nervous system
  • Glycogen - Increases physical stamina
  • Histidine - Enhances nutrient absorption
  • Selenium - Boost the immune system, relieves anxiety
  • B Vitamins - Provides physical energy

This list means nothing. Without assimilability (the ability of the body to utilise every bit of the nutrients) there are no results! Many scientifically formulated products can list as many components.

What makes E3 unique, is that it is 97% assimilable. Compare that to 5% - 25% from synthesised formulas.

Improve the quality of your horse's life! Give your horse the benefits of one of nature's most powerful nutrient-dense creations.

Vet Couldn't Believe the Difference

"The AWS National Breeding Director, Nikki Atwell, purchased a TB mare that was underweight and in the last trimester of her pregnancy in 1997. This mare ate twice as much as all the other horses and would not gain weight. The foal was born and they both were underweight.

What others have to say about E3 Aphanizomenon Flos Aquae

Laminitis

"Comparing E3 to other supplements...you can see results in 6 weeks instead of six months! The most experience I have had is with foundered horses. THIS HEALS THEIR FOOT."

Leroy Miller
FL "I noticed the animals and horses eating E3 were noticeably more healthy looking. When feeding E3 to horses with debilitating laminitis I was astounded! In six weeks they were better than I had ever seen or could have imagined."

Dean Bader DVM
CA

White Line

"Having taken Aphanizomenon flos-aquae myself and seeing the great results, I sent for the video. After watching it, I tried the product on my stallion. He had very, very shelly feet on the medial side of both front knees and was extremely crumbly. After 5 weeks, he had healthy white line and very nice pliable horn material on inside nail too! This is a dramatic improvement. I can't wait to see how much repair has occurred at the next shoeing!" 2/6/98

Brian Eastman
CPA Horse shoeing, NY

UPDATE: 1/23/99 I have always shoed this horse every 6 - 8 weeks. From the time I put him on E3 , his hoof has gained at least ¼" new material on the medial side where it had fallen off previously. The new growth is unbelievable! Very pliable, good quality, supple horn material. This foot started out where I could not drive in a No.5 slim. The sole of this particular horse was very dry and brittle. After E3 , the sole was apple-peel consistency. No more hard brittle, hard-to- work with sole.

Brian Eastman
CPA Horseshoeing, NY

Abscess

Reuben Miller is a farrier with a long-standing reputation as a laminitis specialist. This is his experience.

"I have never, in twenty-five years of treating lameness, seen abscesses clear up so quickly. Some of the things I have seen in such a short time, I wouldn't have believed it if someone just tried to tell me. I have not seen anything but good."

Reuben Miller Sullivan III

"The abscesses dry up faster and fill with clear pliable material."

Wayne Blevins
Horseshoer/Trainer, CA

Fungal

"The E3 eating horses in my clientele do not develop fungal problems. For those that had fungus, it went away in 6 weeks to 3 months."

Wayne Blevins
Horseshoer/Trainer, CA

Breeding Programs

"After feeding Chino, my world champion Paso Fino Stallion, E3 AFA from Klamath Lake his temperament changed. The biggest difference was in breeding. Instead of taking 45 minutes with a mare, Chino now takes 5 minutes and has a much better attitude toward the whole breeding. His hooves also have improved. I have been eating the algae. I am feeling good. I have much more energy, and I notice that my hair and nails are growing faster."

J.R. Morales
Owner/Trainer, FL

"I have been feeding the algae to my Champion Paso Fino horses, and to the mares that are breeding. The algae has helped very much. The foals are easier to wean, horses that were eating their tails stopped immediately, the mares that were nursing are in better condition and the horses coats look much better. Also a horse with laminitis cleared right up. I am amazed, and was very skeptical when you first told me about this food."

Angel Usategui
Owner/Breeder, FL

Overall Health

"Double L Zero is a 1976 AQHA stallion. We've owned him since February 1976. We've tried numerous additives and remedies to help his feet, as well as a variety of shoeing options with no real improvement. After initial skepticism about AFA, we decided to start him on it in August 1998. First noted improvements were in his overall health, better coat condition, lessening of chronic cough and walking better. After 2 months he was trotting like a 3-year-old not a 23 year old. We are very impressed with the results to date."

Joe and Jenny Decker
NY "Feeding your animals the essential minerals and vitamins they need will strengthen the immune system and aid cell regeneration. This means less sick and lethargic animals and a quicker, more effective healing process in horses that are injured or have any hoof problems."

An Interview With Gabriel Cousens, MD, (H) On Healthy Spiritual Living and the Benefits of E3Live Liquid Algae

Introduction to Gabriel Cousens

Dr Gabriel Cousens is one of the worlds foremost authorities on living food nutrition, holistic lifestyle and complementary medicine. He graduated from Columbia Medical School in 1969 with a specialty in biochemistry. He is a holistic physician, psychiatrist, homeopath and family therapist. Not only has Dr. Cousens made major contributions in the field of natural health, he is also a shining example of health himself. Dr. Cousens is the author of Conscious Eating; Depression-Free For Life; There is a Cure for Diabetes; Spiritual Nutrition and the Rainbow Diet and several other books.

The following interview is based on a film shoot that took place on February 1, 2000 at Dr. Cousens' Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center in Patagonia, Arizona. The interview was conducted by Eliot Jay Rosen, Los Angeles Times best-selling author of the book, Experiencing the Soul.

Background on Gabriel Cousens and his rejuvenation center

EJR (Eliot Jay Rosen) - Before we talk about E3 Live Algae, please tell us a little about this beautiful sanctuary in southern Arizona?

GC (Dr. Gabriel Cousens) - The purpose of the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center is to support the experience of complete rejuvenation, to offer people a "menu of awakened living," to become fully liberated from all limitations so that they can live their lives fully and experience their birthright of the sacred joy of living.

We focus on helping people absorb more of the vital forces of nature through living food, sunlight, fresh air, clean water, meditation, yoga and other practices. We encourage people, whatever their orientation, to go inside and get in touch with the part of their eternal self, so they can regenerate from that point of enhanced awareness. That's our function and that's our focus here.

EJR - You mentioned the term, " living foods." Could you give a brief definition of what living foods are?

GC - Living foods are foods that have not been altered by any particular process that negatively changes its biochemical structure and energetic charge in any way. Living foods are not subjected to heat they are uncooked and nothing essential is removed from the food by way of processing. Living foods are truly whole foods in that they still have their life-force intact. The best living foods are organically grown because the full complement of nutrients in the soil are essential to our health. As our health depends to a great degree on the quality of the foods we eat, eating as much living foods as feels right to the body, is the direction we want to go.

EJR - What motivated you to become a medical doctor?

GC - My interest in becoming a doctor started when I was four years old when I already knew what I wanted to be when I grew up. Being a physician is "part of my sacred design." I have consciously dedicated my life to the healing and transformation of people and the planet.

EJR - Your center is clearly more than a health rejuvenation center spirituality seems to be a strong component. Could you share a personal experience of how you've been touched by spirit?

GC - For myself, I had a transforming spiritual awakening in 1975. I experienced the truth beyond the body/mind complex. I was literally being able to transcend the physical body and mind and go "into the Light" in meditation. Today, I am regularly able to contact this same essence, which is at the core of who I am, and we all are what is called "the Higher Self." When we experience that essence, whatever religion or tradition we may be following, we become empowered to move to a higher quality of life, including deeper levels of health, love and joy on all levels physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

EJR - Please tell us more about your own personal lifestyle. Is it really working for you?

GC - First, let me say that a truly holistic lifestyle involves every aspect of life right diet, right livelihood, right company, right spiritual practice, etc. The most important aspect is actually living it in everyday life. The "Tree of Life" is a "living principle" and not just a physical place to rejuvenate. It's not a theoretical or intellectual endeavor, either.

As a result of the combination of these and other lifestyle factors, and God's continuing blessings, my flexibility, strength and endurance continue to increase. As an example, I'm 56 years old, and Iam doing 400 push-ups at a time. As far as flexibility, in high school as an All- State football player, I could barely touch my toes. Now, I have excellent flexibility. (Gabriel now demonstrates for the camera several difficult yoga postures perfectly synchronized, in duo, with resident yoga teacher and partner in life, Shanti Golds)

Allegiance to Quality

EJR - As far as I know, you've been eating and recommending Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), the species of blue-green algae that grows in Klamath Lake, longer than any other medical doctor in the world, almost 20 years, which in my book, makes you an expert.

GC - That's true. However, I want to make clear from the very outset that throughout that time, my commitment has been, and still is, only to the highest quality algae and not to any company. I have no affiliation or financial interest in the company that is behind E3Live. In this way, I can have the cleanest, most scientific approach. I can switch to better products and not compromise my integrity when it comes to recommending what is best for my clients. I've shared AFA algae with thousands of my clients throughout the years. The reason I'm speaking with you today is because I've experienced that E3Live is a qualitative leap compared to the other algae coming out of Klamath Lake.

On the Nutrition--Health Connection

EJR- In the most general way, why is nutrition so important to our health?

GC- Nutrition is so vital to health because eating is our main way of getting energy, besides breathing and increasing our spiritual connection which fills us with life-force. When we put nutrients in our body, we are taking in a gift from God. We're taking in a gift from the living planet. The sad thing is that most of the members of our society don't eat naturally, and we have a consequent degeneration physically, mentally, morally, AND spiritually.

People are mistaken if they think that you can pop a vitamin or eat junk food and that's enough to keep healthy AND ALIVE. When you take natural, live, organic, whole foods into the body, foods that do not have pesticides and herbicides, it makes a huge, huge difference in the quality of life, in the quality of energy, in the quality of health. Eating a poor diet is like taking a car and putting diluted or impure gasoline into it and thinking that the car is going run the same as if you put in premium grade. And when the car breaks down because it's not getting the right fuel, some people, even traditional medical doctors, still don't get the connection.

Superior nutrition specifically enhances our ability to excel as human beings physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Poor nutrition contributes to what I call a "biologically altered brain" in which we function at an inferior level. The result is increased drug addiction, alcoholism, increased hyperactivity, increased attention deficit disorders, and depression.

Do you know that there are 40 million people in the U.S. who are clinically depressed? The above conditions are all as a result of the biologically altered brain which comes as result of poor nutrition and which is amplified by poor genetics. E3Live is specific for our nervous system, brain function and the quality of our consciousness. E3Live is specific food for drug addiction, alcoholism, increased hyperactivity, increased attention deficit disorders, and depression. More than any other food, it enables us to make a paradigm shift and enjoy a sense of well-being. There's a quality of joy that's really subtle that many people experience with E3Live.

EJR- Perhaps when some people hear the words "algae" and "food" in the same sentence, it may be a new concept for them to think that certain algae are edible.

GC- Not only are certain algae edible, but they are truly superfoods. Algae has been eaten by indigenous people for thousands of years. I don't know if they are still working on the project, but the U.S. space program, NASA, was at one time developing food growing systems in space that used algae as a staple protein source. Today more than ever, algae is thought of as a wholesome food in wider and wider circles. It's not thought to be so unusual anymore.

E3Live's Energetic Properties

EJR- How does E3Live compare to store bought vitamins and minerals?

GC- I don't see E3Live as a collection of vitamins and minerals. In nature, there are certain energies that were given to us by God to use for our human development. For instance, the herb milk thistle has an affinity to the liver. Siberian ginseng is a specific for the adrenals, etc.

In the same way, E3Live has a unique energy that has an affinity to improving brain function. We now have clinical research showing AFA algae balances EEG readings and improves central nervous system functioning. So I don't like to equate AFA algae as just being a good source of certain vitamins and minerals. Sure, it has the most reliable and plentiful amounts of B-12 than any other non-animal food I know, but this in itself is just an added bonus to the gift that AFA really is in the grand scheme of Gods creation. But I think this algae is so much more than that. To compare it to man-made supplements is to minimize the value of AFA algae. And now that AFA algae is available in its liquid, live form, this for me is really the exciting part.

EJR- You were one of the first physicians to recommend E3Live Liquid algae even though you were already using the powdered version of the same species of algae?

GC- That's correct. I'd been eating algae from Klamath Lake since 1982. I happen to be at a Live Food Expo in San Francisco where I met the developers of E3Live. My first experience with E3Live was quite dramatic and wonderful. I felt the difference immediately. I felt such a paradigm shift compared to the other AFA algae I'd been using, that I am now recommending E3Live to my clients, and the response has been wonderful for so many different health concerns.

The following portion of the interview moves to the Tree of Life's greenhouse. Dr. Gabriel is showing the interviewer some young lettuce plants

GC- What you see here is our "living" greenhouse, which is an essential part of The Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center. We also have an extensive outdoor garden. All that grows here goes right into the kitchen to create our organic living food meals. It's all part of a natural cycle and way of life. Do you see these young lettuce leaves growing? (Interviewer nods affirmatively) In our busy world, people lose this kind of direct contact. Many people forget that food doesn't grow on the grocery shelf. We also grow sprouts and give people E3Live liquid algae. These are all examples of getting a direct, powerful experience of nature's life-force.

EJR- What's the difference between a garden vegetable and the way AFA algae grows?

GC- AFA algae grows more primitively than the domesticated plants we typically use for food. In the case of E3Live, which is 100% AFA algae and no other ingredient, it grows in a natural lake. It's wild-crafted, and not cultivated in any man-made way other than being filtered for purity.

EJR- So "primitive" is good?

GC- Yes, primitive means it has more life-force. So that's why I include E3Live algae in our healing and rejuvenation program. So when people eat fresh organic salads, though it's very alive, the vegetables are still domesticated foods and aren't as alive.

EJR- I've heard that algae captures nitrogen from the air and makes it into easily absorbable amino acids?

GC- Not ALL algae. But the AFA algae in E3Live does capture nitrogen in this way. This is an indication that this algae is more primitive, closer to original creation. The beauty of it all is that in the mystical Kabbalistic teachings of Judaism, it is taught that the closer an organism is to the Divine and the beginning of Creation, the more powerful it is, the more energy it has to elevate us spiritually. When we take this ancient, primitive algae into our bodies, it begins to generate this extra primordial life-force energy within us.

When we learn how to absorb more of this primordial life-force energy, and then use this life-force in conjunction with consciousness expansion methods such as meditation, then these two major streams create a powerful synergy which supports our overall spiritual evolution, which of course has to include our health as well. For me, that's very exciting. What I've been working on all these years is to combine time-honored spiritual traditions with developing new ways to amplify these energies that are appropriate for modern life.

EJR- So even though we can't "eat our way to God" as I've heard you say numerous times, what we eat does have a very important role.

GC- Absolutely. Eating living foods, E3Live, and other superfoods, especially when selected appropriately for our constitutional and biochemical individuality, has the potential to enhance every aspect of our lives.

EJR- So you're saying not TO make a "religion of eating," but eating in a way suited to our unique needs will help our spiritual receptivity?

GC- Exactly. It's one of the foundations of the spiritual process, and it helps us to experience what I call "full body enlightenment. Yet, I don't want to leave the impression that you can simply eat E3Live or eat in a certain way and become spiritually enlightened. It's true that those attracted to making other positive lifestyle improvements will usually experience spiritual growth, but it has to be seen in a larger context, as part of that which enhances your original sacred design, why you are here to begin with, your mission in life, these kind of big issues.

EJR- Will people still benefit from using E3Live even though they may not want to improve their diet, even if they know there is a better diet?

GC- Yes, absolutely. E3Live is going to help you whether or not you improve your diet. Obviously, to get the most positive changes, you'll want improve your diet and lifestyle. Yet there are many people who just want some- thing to make them feel better. That's OK too. And yes, these people will also benefit. I wouldn't want people to think that to take E3Live one also has to adopt an unfamiliar lifestyle or have to do things that are not comfortable for them. Everybody has a choice as to what they want to do, or not do. However, what seems to happen is that when you begin using E3Live, you begin to feel a greater sense of well-being, then you naturally start to get interested in making improvements simply because you feel better.

EJR- Tell us something about the nutritional aspects of E3Live?

GC- The nutrients found in E3Live are about 97% completely assimilated by the body. There are 64 nutrients we know about, that we have names for, but there are probably many more nutritional factors we haven't discovered yet that are actively beneficial in AFA algae. I'll give sort of a run-down on what scientists do know about. First, E3Live has sort of an endorphin-like effect in the sense that it can give us a wonderful sense of well-being, a sense of joy, a sense of expanded awareness.

Another aspect is that the algae has an incredibly broad-based nutrient profile, and possesses a complete complement of all the essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, in just the right pattern for optimal absorption.

The AFA algae in E3Live has the highest concentration of bio- assimilable chlorophyll than any other food. E3Live has five times more chlorophyll than Wheatgrass, and double the amount of chlorophyll in Spirulina algae, and slightly more chlorophyll than Chlorella algae. The benefits of chlorophyll are vast. Most people know that chlorophyll eliminates anemia but it does a lot more than that.

Fifty percent of E3Live's essential fatty acids are in the Omega-3 form, which many people are deficient in because it is hard to find in most foods. Every cell wall in the body needs some essential fatty acids to function properly. AFA algae is extremely rich in hard to find trace minerals, which many people are also deficient in. Without trace minerals, enzymatic reactions do not take place.

E3Live has all the B vitamins, most notably it is extremely high in B-12, which solves a big issue of a reliable supply of this vitamin for Vegetarians, Vegans and Living Fooders. The average daily amount of algae that people will eat will more than satisfy their daily B-12 needs. That's great news!

E3Live is very good in balancing blood sugar levels, reducing the need for insulin in diabetics, supporting the immune system, and has many other generalized beneficial effects throughout the body.

In my mind, the most important quality of all that singles out this algae as being unique is that it provides raw materials for the brain to manufacture serotonin-based neuro-transmitters, which in turn supports the glands of the entire endocrine system. When the master glands of the endocrine system are nutritionally supported, this creates an inner environment for us to feel happy.

Just as some foods and herbs are for the liver, some foods and herbs are for the kidneys, this species of algae works specifically to help open expanded consciousness and a certain quality of creativity and enhanced awareness. My clients report an increased sense of enhanced well-being, clarity of mind, improved cognition, focus, and a certain hard to describe quality of "beingness," of expanded consciousness.

EJR- How can E3Live function in the body in so many different ways?

GC- There's still a fascinating mystery of "how the algae really works" which isn't fully explained purely by the biochemical nutritional story of what's in it. There's clearly a synergistic effect going on of all the discovered and undiscovered nutrients in the algae, as well as the energetics of where it comes from, which I'd like to address.

I've been involved with this species of algae for over 18 years, eating it myself and recommending it to clients, family and friends. It seems to me, that in the case of E3Live, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. I would bet you anything that if somebody tried to substitute man-made quantities of what we know is in the algae in an synthetic test-tube setting, we would not be able to get the same results. I can tell you that there is something special about the forces of nature in the environment where the algae grows that contributes to the high energy it imparts to us when we eat it. Some of this cannot be proven scientifically, but I believe it is never- theless taking place.

For instance, there is something significant about the water in the lake and the pristine environment where the algae grows. There's a tremendous amount of beneficial minerals in the water that the algae feeds upon, but it's more than that. There are sub-surface currents in the water, and a certain hard-to -pinpoint "volcanic energy" that's there that has a lot to do with the vitality in the algae.

Another factor is the great care the harvesters of E3Live take in bringing the freshest and most alive algae to us. E3Live is the only really live algae we have now, and I know the life-force aspect of E3Live is probably the most important factor that singles it out among all the rest of the algae products from Klamath Lake.

For me, this algae is nothing less than God's gift for us to help us enhance and support our overall evolution. As we enter the new Millennium, the timing of it all is exquisite!

Scientific Research

EJR- To scientifically prove that a food, supplement or even a medicine is good for a particular medical condition takes a lot of money. In certain scientific circles, it takes a special type of test to be validly called a double-blind, cross-over study. What studies have been done with AFA algae?

GC- There have been some excellent studies, some of them double blind cross- over studies and some of them not. However, I read in one of my medical journals that only 1% of all the medical research is really scientific, really rigorous, not to mention the overwhelmingly unscientifically proven procedures that are routinely done on patients themselves. So I think it is not really to our advantage to insist that we absolutely need double blind studies to know if something works or not. What I am saying is that this so-called gold standard of experimental design may be an artificial scientific standard which slows up the acceptance of nature's gifts, foods that we could be using to help more and more people.

That having been said, an excellent double blind study WAS done in Nicaragua, South America, which showed increased cognition in school children. Though it did not state it in the study, it is my opinion that the algae helped undiagnosed attention deficit disorders in these children. In the study, the children's grades went from 64% to 85% over a period of two years.

I've personally treated clients with Alzheimer's disease using AFA algae, and published the findings in a medical journal. It was in a somewhat controlled setting in that AFA algae was the only supplement that was given In one case, my client had lost her ability to talk, she couldn't walk, she didn't have enough focus to watch TV, and she couldn't dress herself. After using AFA algae, these symptoms reversed themselves. She was thereafter able to dress herself, able to talk, able to walk, able to focus enough to watch TV.

Another client also went downhill with the typical symptoms of Alzheimers. He responded miraculously quickly to the algae, and his symptoms improved significantly. However, at a certain point, his wife, who was his caretaker, ran out of AFA algae. She didn't completely understand that she needed AFA algae and not just any other species of algae. So she went out and purchased Spirulina algae from someone else, and his degenerative symptoms quickly returned. When I finally became aware of the situation and got him back on the AFA algae, his symptoms reversed again. Now this isn't a double blind study, but it was enough evidence for me that something good was going on WITH AFA ALGAE!

I also want to be clear that the Spirulina wasn't bad for him, it just didn't have the same properties that supports the mental, cognitive functioning that AFA algae has to improve brain functioning.

Autistic Children

EJR- I've heard E3Live works with children as well.

GC- I've had excellent results using the algae with children who've been autistic. One of the main characteristics of autism is the absence of verbal talking. These children only make grunting and other such noises. I remember one child case that began to talk in only one month after beginning using the algae. Unfortunately, if you can believe this, the mother really didn't want the child to talk. She started complaining the child was talking too much, and made some excuse to stop giving the algae to the child, which is very sad when you think about it.

For Depression

EJR- As a psychiatrist, do you sometimes use more traditional treatments for depression such as Prozac?

GC- I've had people who've been depressed for years and years, and literally, within a few days after receiving AFA algae, their depression lifts. This is because the algae gets to the roots of helping heal the addictive brain chemistry which is behind a lot of depression. I discuss this at length in my new book, Depression Free For Life.

People do not have a Prozac® deficiency. This approach doesn't get to the root of the problem. My depression healing rate using natural foods, including E3Live, nutritional supplements and basic lifestyle changes, without the necessity of using any pharmaceutical drugs, Prozac® or anything like that, is over 90%. No drug can compete with that, period.

For Meditators

EJR- What about E3Live and meditation? It would seem to me if E3Live is good for mental clarity it might actually help people improve their focus in meditation.

GC- In my first book, Spiritual Nutrition and the Rainbow Diet, I was very focused on what is the best diet for meditators. I found that an uncooked live food diet is best, not that one cannot make spiritual progress without it, just that the living food diet is extremely helpful. Along with this I found that AFA algae was a specific for meditation. And now, with the new liquid form of AFA algae "E3Live" its positive effect is even more pronounced. So yes, I find that E3Live is a specific food for enhancing one's ability to focus in meditation. E3Live helps keeps the mind clear, light and joyful.

Other Species of Edible Algae

EJR- Could you compare the energetic and nutritional differences between E3 algae and say, Spirulina algae, or Chlorella algae.

GC- For those who know about edible algaes, there's a tendency to want to compare algae in a competitive way. But this isn't the way I look at it. Each of these algaes have their proper roles. Chlorella is very specific for getting mercury out of the system. Spirulina is very good for hepatitis. Although Chlorella or Spirulina may help mental functioning a little bit, it's nowhere near the effect that AFA algae has on mental functioning. So Spirulina works more on the physical body, and E3Live's real gift to humanity is that it works more on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels, yet, still has tremendous effects physically, as I've been mentioning. But it's the mental functioning where people really feel the difference.

AFA Algae Boosts the Immune System

EJR- What about E3Live and the immune system?

GC- A recent study showed that AFA algae activates up to 40% more of the immune system's beneficial natural killer cells. Natural killer cells hunt out viruses and bacteria, even seeking them out deep in the body's tissues. One of the nice things about AFA algae something I've intuitively known since 1982, is that it significantly enhances the immune system. If I feel any kind of viral imbalance coming on, I take E3Live and it always takes it away. I also use E3Live for my clients, not only to get rid of symptoms of disease, but as a preventative measure. I've actually know of two or three cases where people took the algae and healed themselves. This is not to say that AFA algae is the primary immune stimulant to use above any other to fight illness, but that this algae has some qualities. Scientists already know that AFA algae has some anti-HIV effects, but we need to do a lot more research in these areas.

On Weight Loss and Appetite Control

EJR- Have you had any clients that have responded to using E3Live for weight loss and appetite control?

GC- Yes, I have, but let me say that in my practice, I don't focus on these issues in particular. What I find is that when I help people improve their nutritional intake, especially in the direction of a living food diet, they naturally gravitate back to their natural, normal and healthiest weight. Appetite control becomes much less of an issue with most people because when people's bodies and brains are well-nourished, when they self-regulate and normalize, they no longer feel depressed and so they don't need to eat compulsively as a result of depression. As E3Live balances blood sugar levels, they're not eating to compensate for low blood sugar.

For Alcohol and Drug Problems

EJR- Have you used E3Live successfully with alcohol and drug problems?

GC- Yes. E3Live is an essential part of my treatment program. Almost everyone I see, I put on E3Live because it helps with the underlying depression and helps heal the biologically altered, addictive brain aspects behind these destructive behaviors. I believe E3 Live is God's gift for people with a biologically altered brain because of poor diet and poor genetics. These people suffer a lot in this world. One way they cope with the suffering is alcoholism and drugs. There are obviously better, less destructive ways to cope.

In alcoholism and drug addiction, we find subtle and not so subtle changes in brain chemistry and brain waves. In many of these people, the pleasure centers of their brains, the dopamine receptors, are not working correctly. We find that by using E3Live along with other dietary changes and specific amino acid supplementation, we can normalize the electroencephalogram (EEG) readings and balance the central nervous system at the root of the disorder.

For example, if someone's brain function is off, not dramatically in the sense they are having epileptic seizures, but "subclinically" and out of balance, their EEG isn't really quite right, and we can normalize it with E3Live, proper nutrition and other supplements. E3Live helps people eliminate the craving for alcohol and drugs in part because blood sugar levels are being normalized and the brain is also functioning better.

There's another hidden aspect in all this that very few people know about. The hypothalamus is a vitally important gland of the endocrine system. It is often not functioning properly in drug addiction and alcoholism. It's very hard to heal the endocrine system, which is almost always out of balance in drug and alcohol addicted individuals. It turns out that E3Live is the only vegetarian source I know that brings hypothalamic function back to normal.

So as you can see, I'm particularly excited about E3Live. It is clearly the best of all the algaes on the market right now for healing and bringing the hypo- thalamus back into functioning.

EJR - Because E3Live is perishable, it has to be frozen. Is there a difference between freezing vegetables and fruits and freezing algae in terms of its maintaining its nutritional and energetic properties?

GC - This species of algae is genetically prepared for extreme alterations in temperature. In winter, parts of Klamath Lake freeze over, including the live algae growing in the water. But when the weather warms up, the algae comes out of its frozen dormancy phase and resumes its active growth cycle. Its genetic structure protects it from the effects of the cold, which is unlike fruits and vegetables, which are destroyed in frost. This is because AFA algae is high in lipids and free fatty acids, which protect it from crystalizing in low temperature conditions. Bee pollen works the same way, you can freeze it and you don't damage the nutritional value. So the good news about is that the algae it is significantly protected against the effects of freezing.

EJR - The term "adaptogen," usually refers to an herb which has many different ways of working in the body. Could we apply this term to a food such as E3Live, as it's been reported to be effective for many different health conditions?

GC - Yes, I think it is very appropriate to use the term "adaptogen" in connection with E3Live. It's both a physical adaptogen as well as a mental adaptogen. In my own life, sometimes I'll have to speak for an entire day at conferences. I take E3Live as sort of a mental adaptogen for the stress of putting out so much energy.

AFA algae is also a physical adaptogen in that it increases physical energy. There are world-class athletes who eat AFA algae because they feel it gives them a "competitive edge."

EJR - Dr. Cousens, you've been incredibly generous with your time. Do you have any last words for us today?

GC - The essence of my message is this: it doesn't matter what our chronological age is, we can be youthful at any age. But more important than staying youthful is to understand that one-sided physical health will never give us the lasting happiness and love we seek. We want to draw into our lives anything and anyone that nourishes supports and enhances our spiritual and overall growth. Life is a great blessing. Health is a great blessing. True gifts of God are a great blessing, and worthy of any effort or expense.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between E3Live and man-made nutritional supplements?

E3Live is a whole, organic natural food found in the wild that has both discovered and yet undiscovered nutrients. These nutrients are 97% fully assimilated. Only a fraction of the vitamin content of even more expensive "health food vitamins" are actually absorbed by the body. Man-made supplements only contain what the formulators choose to include.

How is E3Live different from other brands of the same AFA algae from Upper Klamath Lake?

E3Live is the only AFA algae that is frozen live and delivered to you closest to its natural state. E3Live is selectively gathered by our expert harvesters and collected only from the deepest, most pristine waters of Upper Klamath Lake. E3Live is harvested only at peak times of optimal growth when the algae is the heartiest, healthiest and most vibrant.

Harvesting AFA algae is an art AND a science. We discovered that the strongest, freshest algae is located only at the heart of the algae bloom, where the algae possesses its highest life-force.

The benefits of AFA algae are directly proportional to the quality of the harvesting source and how the algae is handled at every step of the process. We take pride in knowing that we bring you the most potent, purest algae in the world.

How are Vision Inc's harvesting and filtering methods superior?

E3Live's superior harvesting and proprietary filtration methods ensure the absolute highest quality algae. The algae is harvested a few inches below the water's surface so that only the purest algae is gathered. We always keep E3Live cold to preserve its natural vitality and highest nutritional value.

How is the consistent quality of E3Live assured?

From the moment we harvest the algae, to its final packaging, we work with only the most highly trained and qualified staff. E3Live is tested thoroughly by independent USDA certified labs for food safety, shelf-life and various other water purity tests.

Can I feed E3Live to my pets?

Absolutely. In fact, E3Live is a favorite among veterinarians who successfully treat dogs, cats, birds and other small animals for nutritional deficiencies and all sorts of ailments.

Horse owners, breeders and trainers use E3Live to heal serious hoof diseases and to increase performance. George Bond, the proud owner of "Buck's Boy", the 1998 Breeder's Cup winner, is presently using E3Live for this prize thoroughbred horse.
