We have all heard the marketing hype, "Revolutionary Product, Nothing Like This Product, The Only Product You Will Ever Need, Get the Fountain of Youth, This Product Cures All..." I have lived a "wholistic" lifestyle for over 65 years (in 2017) now and I cannot say I have seen it all but I have seen too many products make the same claims and not deliver. These products are usually sold by multi-level companies and do not last more than five years on the market. I have developed a certain level of skepticism after 65+ years. Such was the case when I was first introduced to bio-algae concentrates (Spirulina pacifica, Spirulina platensis, Dunaliella salina and astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis) at a local holistic health fair in 2002. We were both vendors at the first Golden Holistic Health Fair and the crowd was so sparse, vendors were talking to each other. I listened politely and watched the PowerPoint presentation on the fellow vendor's laptop and agreed that it all sounded nice but I did not have a current need for his revolutionary quantum leap in super cellular nutrition (bio-algae concentrates). My wife (Margaret) had another idea, so she purchased a bottle and took all the vendor's literature.
In 2002, we had a 17 year old cat, Tabby (yes, we know she was not a tabby-coated cat but it was short for Tabitha), that was dying of kidney disease (CRF-Chronic Renal Failure). Margaret was poking the cat twice a day with subcutaneous fluids, crushing up supplements (Standard Process RenaFood) to mix into her food and stuffing homeopathic pills down the poor cats mouth all day long. Since all the bio-algae concentrates' cancer research was done on animals, she wanted to try this new 'wonder' product on Tabby. Here is what we observed the first week of giving Tabby, bio-algae concentrates. Tabby was more affectionate, had more energy and asked to go outside more. The same week I saw a black cat jump up on the picnic table on our porch and walk along the railing. Since we had two black cats, I assumed this was the younger one, until the younger one rubbed up against my leg inside the house. It was then, that I realized the black cat outside walking along the railing was Tabby, our 17 year old dying of CRF, with increased flexibility. Tabby had stopped jumping up on furniture several years ago because of a lack of flexibility. With this total transformation in our cat dying of kidney disease, I decided I had better look at the manufacturer's research and claims regarding bio-algae concentrates more seriously now.
In addition to being exposed to a holistic lifestyle since before I was born, I also benefited from the knowledge my mother had as a biologist working for the Atomic Energy Commission back in the 1940-50's. She used her scientific knowledge to decide that was not a career she wanted to pursue and transferred her wisdom into the holistic arena. The word "holistic" didn't even exist then. Back then it was called counter-culture, hippie diet, natural foods, health food nut diet, rabbit food, etc. I, personally, have a B.S. in geophysical engineering, I am a Certified Reiki Master and I have taken aromatherapy training but have no formal training in the health field per se, just 65+ years of living a holistic lifestyle based on my mother's knowledge. My dear mother was known as the "Herb Lady of Hempstead." She was reading books by Adele Davis, Dr. Carleton Fredericks, Rachel Carson and Rodale long before they were fashionable. People from Manhattan and all over Long Island came to see her for her knowledge of herbs, kinesiology, polarity treatments, nutrition, essential oils and holistic supplements (she was the largest distributor of Standard Process supplements in Nassau County). It is with this background that I founded Optimum Choices, LLC with my wife, Margaret (who also has a biology degree, hmmm...), in 2002. It is with these credentials that I poured over the manufacturer's claims of this new revolutionary holistic product, bio-algae concentrates.
Algae are miniature factories producing over 4,000 enzymes, vitamins, essential fatty acids, minerals, amino acids and protein. Algae can help animals to:
The special algae blend in bio-algae concentrates (Spirulina pacifica, Spirulina platensis, Dunaliella salina and astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis) are unlike any algae or Spirulina product you can buy in the store due to the unique combination of 2 algae and 2 Spirulina grown under special conditions used to optimize the nutrients. Bio-algae concentrates are a proprietary blend of specific algae that has a synergistic effect not found when taking these algae separately. The synergism of the blend promotes complete assimilation of food so that animals absorb the vitamins and minerals from it and you can either reduce or eliminate other supplements. For example, absorption from external calcium supplements is only 18-23%. Absorption of food calcium and calcium from algae when taking bio-algae concentrates is 90-95%. Bio-algae concentrates promote balancing of the body by feeding the brain, which then directs the rest of the body to heal whatever is wrong with it, using the innate intelligence of the body.
Bio-algae concentrates (BAC, generic name of research product) has more than 20,000 people-years of research and development behind it in the former Soviet Union. The award-Dr. Michael Kiriacwinning pioneer in biotechnology, Michael Kiriac, Ph.D., was tasked with finding a nutritional way to reduce cancer and improve productivity in animals. More than 20 animal species were used in research including rats, rabbits, mink, birds, fishes, cats and dogs, sheep, goats, horses and cows. His proof of concept is due to these 100% blind study cases and the sheer number of animals involved (over 20 animal species with some numbering over 1.5 million subjects per case study). Dr. Kiriac successfully stopped the ongoing epidemic of cancer in controlled trials with chickens, mink, pigs and cows in the former U.S.S.R.
An informal study of hundreds of dogs (mostly German shepherds) was observed over several years on the poultry research farm in Moldova with the following results:
So that is my story. I am 65+ years old and I intend to live to be over 100 years. I feel with BioSuperfood, Cellular PSP and NingXia Red I can easily accomplish this. By the way, there are 400% more centenarians (people age 100+) living in the Ningxia province than the rest of China. The Chinese wolfberries in our NingXia Red juice infusion come only from the NingXia province which has earned this area the title of "herbal medicine valley" because of the efficacy and potency of all the wolfberries, plants and herbs they grow.
"We had a cat that came to our hospital that had not eaten in 4 days. All lab tests and blood work were negative. Further examination found absolutely nothing wrong with the cat but it was still dying. At the suggestion of Russell Louie, owner of Optimum Choices, I gave the owner some bio-algae concentrates and told him to mix it in water and squirt it into the cat’s mouth. The cat started to eat and drink a little by the end of the day. By the next day the cat was eating normally and totally recovered. I never figured out what was wrong with the cat but the owner was very thankful that bio-algae concentrates literally saved his cat’s life."

"My purebred boxer, Gator, developed anemic symptoms two weeks after a car accident. The bone Zach & Gatormarrow disorder was eating his red blood cells. His blood count was down to 16% and he had to have two blood transfusions within a month. I have spent over $4000 on my dog and the vets had given up on him. Gator was on several different medications including high-powered steroids and he was only maintaining life, barely. I did some research on my own and found the bio-algae concentrates product, so I called to inquire and after hearing the information decided that I had nothing to lose. I initially gave Gator 4 capsules per day of the bio-algae concentrates along with the steroids and other medications and he started to improve almost immediately. After a month or so we discontinued all medication except for the bio-algae concentrates at 4 per day and Gator was not only maintaining life, but actually recovering. His blood count was increasing with every vet visit. One year later Gator is still on 4 capsules per day, but he is the healthiest he has been in a long time. I just had his yearly check up and he checked out with normal blood count and no sign of the anemic disorder whatsoever. I owe it all to the bio-algae concentrates - it truly saved my dog’s life."

"Our cat was dying because it was not manufacturing red blood cells. The vets could not diagnose the source of the problem. After starting on bio-algae concentrates he now is doing GREAT. He told me that he seems to have weak cells in his digestive track. They have difficulty absorbing nutrients and releasing waste. The bio-algae concentrates really feeds these cells and supports their healthy function. Cool, huh?"
