Does anyone take an algae suppliment? If so which brand do you use--I don't want to get some janky brand that doesen't even contain what I want to buy!

So nobody uses blue green algea?? Seriously??*blerg* :(
I use it on occasions, I am not fond of the taste. But I make effort to use it in shakes. I use the powder form. The pill s I have tried and are to expensive.
OOppps sorry forgot to mention the name brand.....EARTHRISE its 100% vegetarian. (spirulina natural)
OH! Thank you so much! I was planning on getting the pills--I don't make smoothes very often andI take a bunch of other suppliments I just figured I would take them all together.
Do you think they help you?
OK! I just ordered my blue gree tablets and I got a cacao berry clarity thingy--it sounds yummy and has a ton of algea in it soI figured it would be worth trying too--I hope it is worth the $1.49 I spent on it!

Hope those are good also. Let me know if they're better than what I use. Use to get pills from Japan. Don't know if they were vegetarian or not. So I quit buying them. They are awesome(amazon.com).So many choices to make, nowadays.
Here's the place i got mine from-- it's from a place in Oregon where the algea grows :) so it should be really good (you would think).

i used to use living fuel but supposivley they changed one of their ingredients and it messed with the entire blend...i loved that stuff though...
hope this helps!
I mix in spirulina into my soy milk with my flax in the morning.

Oh! So it's just blue green algea by a different name...OK--and it tastes good sprinkled on food?
My algae just came in the mail today!!!! I'm so excited--I want'ed to try it today--but the website ssid that people have reported staying up longer when it is taken later in the day--and i already have insomnia issues--so I will be starting them tomorrow--I will also be testing out the chocolate algae thing too--so I'll report back on how that tastes too :)
I'm gonna have to try it like you do. Sounds really good and yet different.(soy milk flax~spirulina)mmmmmm....good

the only seaweed/algae supplement i use is nori with my sushi. should i invest in some good ol' algae? the health benefits sound both endless and amazing!
I'll be your product tester :) I can't wait to start taking it to see if it really does all those great things! I will defintely report back in a few days!!! You know what is yummy though that I just thought of--sea weed salad at japaneese restaurants, your sushi comment made me think about it--OMG that stuff is seriously YUMMY! I think I'll stop and get some on my way home tomorrow :)

i was going to get some at my market and then i read the ingredients and found out that that particular type was made with jellyfish! wtf!!?!?!?
What was made with jellyfish--the algae tablets or sea weed salad? either way that is GROSS and shouldn't be in there!!!

They sound so de~lish, a little bit high dollar side. If they are really as good as they sound let me know. I might be able to order them. (with fingers crossed) How many do you eat for a days worth? Can you contain yourself from eating too many?

I only ordered one on the chocolates to try--because like you said, they are a little pricy--I haven't tried it yet--but I think one has two days worth--they are 1 oz each and it seems like I remember seeing that a days worth is .5oz--but I'm not sure--I know with the tablets they reccomend you take 1 daily the first week, 2 daily the second week and so on till you are up to 4 daily--but I am just sticking with 1 daily untill I know how it works with my body. Plus i don't want to buy more so soon since they are a little pricy too--I never spend money on things besides food so dishing out $20 for supplements was big for me!
