  • Important Spirulina Info

    Spirulina Nutritional Composition

    PATHS is a unique energetic tool that assists your mind (aka the subconscious) to reach goals that your conscious mind has set for yourself.

    Because PATHS is going to be instructing your mind to help you enhance your abilities, a certain amount of increased brain activity is expected, and the brain, to function properly, needs adequate nutrition. Amino acids and minerals are of particular importance in getting the most productivity out of your unconscious brain.

    Research has shown that spirulina (available at most all health food and vitamin stores) and a good multi mineral will make a world of difference in how effectively your mind works on your new PATHS. Typical amount of Spirulina ranges between 2000 - 3000 mg's per Module.



    Inside the Network of Your Brain

    The communication network in your brain is a multi-trillion maze of connections capable of performing 20 million-billion calculations per second. How does this network operate? There are three major players: Neurons, which power the message, Neurotransmitters, which create the message and Receptors, which receive the message.

    (some amino acids are the precursor of neurotransmitters)

    A single one of your neurons can produce almost a tenth of a volt, and the total electrical activity in your brain is easily measurable with an electroencephalogram (EEG). Within a neuron, a bioelectric impulse (action potential) travels toward the cell body through the dendrites, the intricate branches of nerve fibers that receive information from other neurons.

    The impulse then travels at a speed of up to 150MPH away from the cell body through its antennae, called the axon. The axon is a single insulated fiber that sends the bioelectric current out to the cell's terminals, which can be several inches (or feet) away. The size and quality of the axon determines how fast the bioelectric impulse travels.

    Within the cell body of a neuron, many different types of chemical neurotransmitters are manufactured and shipped out to the end terminals of the axon. Here they're stored in bubble-like structures (vesicles), where they wait to cross over the space between neurons, called the synapse (from the Greek word for "junction").

    The bioelectric impulse signals the vesicles to burst and the neurotransmitters to spill out across the synapse, where they're caught by receptor molecules on the membrane of the target neuron's dendrites.

    Mixed results

    I take on average 6 to 10 capsules a day of Spirulina in addition to a multivitamin and have seen a significant improvement in mood etc. On the days that I neglect the Spirulina I have noticed a dip in mental clarity. I watch my theater daily and have been doing so for a little over a month and totally dig it.

    My wife on the other hand had begun to take Spirulina at the same time and after about 3 weeks started to become pale and had a reduction in energy and felt mentally foggy. When she went to the doctor they told her that her blood pressure was super high and her iron count was super low at a 9. They were even surprised she had made it there.

    She quit taking Spriulina and noticed dramatic improvements within just a few days and is now also taking an iron supplement. Has anyone had similar reactions?

      Not feeling great using Spirulina

      I have been taking Spirulina for a while now. I have been using Paths for about 3 months. I wasn't getting the desired results with Paths but I figured it was due to me not taking Spirulina. I had problems with it keeping me awake at night. I started taking it about 1 month ago daily (4 grams). I haven't been feeling myself lately. I have felt tired, headache, severe heartburn (which I've never experienced except when pregnant), jittery, foggy. I'm now wondering if it's the Spirulina. I really want Paths to work so I'm afraid to stop the Spirulina but I think I may try to go without it to see if my physical self feels better. I'd love to hear if anyone else has felt this way. And if you have any other suggestions for supplements to take that support brain function while using Paths. Is a good multi vitamin and multi mineral not enough?

        Thanks PATHS for the info

        for me, feeling "foggy", "irritated" or getting headaches always means i need more Spirulina ... I increase the doze - the symptoms disappear, as simple as that ..

        currently im on (24 grams) of Spirulina daily .. I have been doing this for more than a year now and Im very happy about it and the results .. I am on many many modules so i need this much or even more sometimes, .. at some stages I used to take up to (34 grams) of Spirulina daily ... i don't know how, but my body's need seems to vary from time to time, sometimes i need more sometimes i need a bit less ... so i keep watching myself ..

        I agree with Paths so much on the multi-minerals and how much they improve getting the most of paths .. didnt believe it until i tried it .. i always thought my multi-vitamin was enough .. but adding the minerals really helped ..

        one more thing ive got to mention here, .... you need to get enough sleep at night .... if one night i didnt sleep well it affects my whole day ...

        adequate water intake too makes a difference to ur overall well being and energy level and mind clarity during ur day ..

        hope u all get the best out of what u do ..

        Love.

          Excellent post!

          When I started with PATHS I had to take 10g per day and had to drink 2l of water. I think you should use a lot of spirulina at the begining and than try to see what is the best for you.

            DISCLAIMER: I am not a doctor, nor in anyway giving advice.


            I find it interesting that the inference from the doctors (I guess) is that spirulina was somehow related to a low iron count.

            If one looks at the typical analysis of Spirulina (Please click on this link: Spirulina Nutritional Composition ) you will see that on average there is 15mg of Iron in 10 grams of spirulina. This is 80% of the US Daily % dictated by allopathic medicine.

            Perhaps I am missing something, but how could taking Iron cause a deficiency of Iron?


            Now there are some factors that could cause a person to not have a good reaction to ingesting spirulina. Here are a few:

            Since spirulina is an algae, it could be contaminated like so much of our other foods.

            As noted in the PATHS website, persons taking blood thinners should NOT eat spirulina because it will thicken the blood.

            Also, persons with PKU should be careful how much spirulina they eat.



            I know that PATHS recommends spirulina because it is such a good source of Amino Acids.

            Some Amino Acids are the precursor to neurotransmitters.

            Additional neurotransmitters are preferred by people using PATHS to help process all the RDT instructions.

            I have read on the site here that some people are not taking spirulina, but getting amino acids from other sources. Here is one link: http://www.energeticforum.com/health...ino-acids.html


            I, myself, began an experiment yesterday. I stopped taking spirulina and have begun taking a different supplement with amino acids in it.

            If it appears to work, then my wife and daughter will try it also. If it works for them as well, then I will post info about it here.

              Have you tried a different brand of spirulina?

              Also, check out this link: http://www.energeticforum.com/health...ino-acids.html

              Also, I will be posting results (if they are good of ) of my test of a different source of amino acids.

                thanks

                Thanks for all of the info. Maybe I should try taking more Spirulina and see if that helps. I do worry about contamination, lead, etc. I've heard that you have to make sure you are taking a really good brand. Can anyone make suggestions as to some really good brands?

                Also, is there any risk of toxicity from taking too much Spirulina? I always get concerned with vitamin mega dosing.

                Is anyone else taking any other form of amino acids besides Spirulina that they can recommend?

                And do I need a multi vitamin as well as Spirulina and my multi mineral?

                    I have had quite a few problems with Spirulina giving me stomach cramps and diarrhea so I finally got some E3Live and I love it! I have been taking the freeze dried form because the frozen one seemed too complicated. You can find on e3live.com. I only have to take a teaspoon of it in some lemon juice first thing in the morning. You might have paths boost your sleep program if you are not sleeping well.

                      e3 live

                      It's pretty expensive. Looks like about $150 for 5 bottles. How long does each bottle last?

                        Hey Kevin,

                        The recommendation to quit taking Spirulina was not from my wife's doctor but from me. It was more a test than anything else. She had started feeling a loss in energy and mental clarity right around the time she began taking it and so I thought this would rule out the most possible causes. The day after she quit taking it she began to feel better. The iron pills were given because her iron count was so low.

                        We have both been sharing the same bottle of pills, so I'm pretty sure it isn't a bad batch but as suggested she could be sensitive to this brand. We are interested in the other suggestions given and will look into trying them out.

                        Thanks.

                          Braggs Aminos

                          Hi Samcor,

                          I use Braggs all the time on whatever food it goes good with. It is a great amino source but not as much as spirulina. You would have to take quite a bit and that would be pretty salty!
                          Sincerely,

                            Aaron,

                            I know you use the E3 live. How long does the 5 bottles last? Is it just a month supply?

                            Also, why do you like it better?

                            Thanks, Amy (aka: Samcor)

                              E3Live

                              Hi Amy,

                              The liquid E3Live is:
                              " Each bottle (480 ml/16.2 fl. oz.) contains 100% Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA)"

                              I'm not sure exactly how long each bottle lasts but I know a 5 bottle supply last me longer than 3 months. I think the average is about 1 month per bottle. I took about 6 tablespoons a day. 2 on an empty stomach right when I woke up with a glass of water, 2 before lunch with water and 2 more half way between lunch and dinner so I wasn't taking it too late.

                              I am currently using the capsules and take 8 a day. I feel the effects more stronger with the liquid than with the capsules so there is a trade off for convenience.
                              Sincerely,
                              Aaron Murakami
