BAC for appetite suppression and reducing cravings
Bio-Algae Concentrates are known to satisfy many nutritional deficiencies.
As soon as people start consuming them they start noticing a reduction in
craving for carbohydrates and sweets.
I've engaged in hundreds of hours of nutritional
research over the years. Here's my educated guess at
the factors at work here:
Magnesium content: These micro-algae contain high levels
of magnesium and other minerals that are frequently deficient in
modern diets. Magnesium deficiency is known to produce intense
cravings, especially for chocolate sweets (which contain magnesium).
By eating micro-algae, the body is supplied with magnesium, and so
the cry to "feed me magnesium" is silenced.
Protein content: The protein content of these micro-algae
(especially spirulina) provides for steady levels of blood sugar
that counteract any tendency for a hypoglycemic response, which
would of course induce severe cravings for sweets. In other words,
the high quality protein in these superfoods blocks the hypoglycemic
appetite response.
Fatty acids content: The healthy fatty acids found in these micro-algae,
promote steady blood sugar levels through
their slow digestion, as with any good fatty acid. GLA, for example, helps
regulate the insulin response of the pancreas, and therefore
eliminates the primary cause of sugar cravings even before they can
occur!
Vitamins: Some part of the cravings experienced by people
consuming a modern "Western" diet are due, I believe, to
deficiencies in the B vitamins. Without adequate supplies of these
vitamins in their natural form, the body's hormonal signals
get distorted, and the body orders the person to keep eating. What
the body really craves, most likely, is adequate nutrition, not
empty calories. Once this nutrition is supplied by the micro-algae,
the body's hunger signals quiet down.
If you begin to supplement with these micro-algae,
the appetite suppressing effects of Bio-Algae Concentrates
will take very little time to be noticed. You can sometime expect to take
Bio-Algae Concentrates for one day and suddenly notice a reduction of your cravings.
Now that is not a permanent and stable situation. Its a taste for what is to come.
It may take weeks or months for your body to adapt and adjust to your new
nutritional habits. Hormonal changes, especially, take considerable
time, since your body is probably in "the habit" of releasing excess
insulin in response to the refined foods you've been consuming.
And that brings up another point: a few grams of Bio-Algae Concentrates
can't counteract hundreds of grams of white flour, corn
syrup, soft drinks, cookies and breads. While micro-algae can
certainly help, the fact is that you probably won't eliminate your
intense carbohydrate cravings until you manage to remove those
carbohydrates from your diet in the first place. Bio-Algae Concentrates
will help you in that decision, but they can't override a
tidal wave of poor nutritional choices.
