We now know why E3Live™ is so effective - and for more than just raising energy levels and increasing mental clarity - below you will find an excerpt from the book "Primordial Food" authored by Christian Drapeau, MSc.

Mr. Drapeau, a foremost scientist in the study of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, holds a Masters of Science degree in Neurology and Neurosurgery from the Montreal Neurological Institute, an affiliate of McGill University, Montreal, Canada, and has been extensively involved in the study of nutrition, naturopathy and various natural therapies.

Most significantly, Mr. Drapeau collaborated with many scientists affiliated with Harvard University, McGill University, the University of Illinois, Oregon State University, the University of New Mexico and the University of Mississippi in the study of the effects of blue-green algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae) on human health. Mr. Drapeau continues his involvement in the clinical study of AFA:

"The health benefits of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) have been reported for more than two decades, yet it is only recently that science has revealed the mechanisms by which AFA acts on the body, and the astonishing health benefits of AFA. AFA contains a wide variety of phytonutrients that promote health, such as chlorophyll, carotenoids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. AFA contains unique molecules that modulate various aspects of human health such as:

• Phenylethylamine (PEA) known as the "molecule of love." Beside enhancing concentration and attention, PEA is a natural mood elevator and anti-depressant.
• Phycocyanin, the blue pigment in AFA, which is a natural selective COX-2 inhibitor with strong anti-inflammatory properties.
• A polysaccharide that stimulates the migration of immune cells in the body; the only natural compound known to stimulate immune cell migration.

But the most extraordinary discovery is the ability of AFA to stimulate stem cell release and migration, making AFA the first natural compound known to stimulate the natural innate phenomenon of healing, regeneration and repair in the human body."

E3Live™ - Optimal Health for Hair, Skin & Nails

Imagine being complimented for the healthy glow of your skin, hair and nails! Statistics show that nearly 183 million Americans are deficient in the vitamins and minerals vital to beautiful skin, hair and nails. The nutrients present in E3Live™ will 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 also. After all, hair and nails are a part of your body.

E3Live™ - Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is E3Live™?
There's only one ingredient in E3Live™, and that's 100% Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA for short), an edible freshwater plant. AFA is at the very foundation of the entire food chain.

Although it has been eaten for centuries by indigenous peoples, for the first time in history, AFA - nature's most basic food - is available in it's complete, vital, fresh frozen, LIQUID form.

Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), (means invisible flower of the water) is a fresh water nutritional plant referred to as cyanophyta. Cyanophyta are living water plants that grow in nearly all droplets of sunlit water and in every gram of soil, on the bark of trees and the surfaces of rocks. It is estimated that there are as many as 50,000 species, including various seaweeds and plankton.

Collectively, cyanophyta are responsible for 90% of the Earth's oxygen and 80% of its food supply. Perhaps the most interesting of these unicellular plants are the cyanophyta community, of which there are about 1500 species--the Upper Klamath Lake, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, or AFA for short, being one of them. AFA is a very special form of cyanophyta. All foods reflect the environment in which they are grown. The beautiful, unpolluted Upper Klamath Lake-one of the few remaining alkaline lakes on the planet holds the key to it's remarkable potency.

This lake has an astonishingly high mineral concentration due to a massive volcanic eruption that occurred in the vicinity over 7,000 years ago, covering the area with millions of tons of mineral ash. Seventeen streams and rivers deposit into the 140 square mile lake an annual average of 50,000 tons of the mineral-rich silt from the surrounding 4000 square mile volcanic basin, making Upper Klamath Lake one of the richest nutrient traps in the world.

Much has been learned about this amazing food since it became available as a food source over 20 years ago. There are more benefits being discovered every day as this cyanophyta is introduced to the medical and scientific communities. AFA has been available in powders and capsules, but now, for the first time in history, AFA is available in its much more potent and vibrant frozen LIQUID form.

2. How do I defrost E3Live™?
Keeping E3Live™ Fresh: Keep frozen until ready to use, then place bottle in refrigerator to partially defrost. Pour off the thawed portion (only pour off enough for a 7-day supply). Place remainder of bottle back in freezer until ready to defrost again.

For immediate defrosting, place bottle in cool water for 15 minutes.

Insider's Tip: Find one of those plastic ice trays that has a lid (to keep freezer odors out) and fill the tray with your thawed E3Live™ (make sure that you measure so that each cube equals one serving for you). Put the tray back in the freezer. When you want to add E3Live™ to your juice you can use an "E3Live™ Cube" as your serving size.

3. How do I eat E3Live™?
Some folks love the natural taste of E3Live™ and drink it undiluted. Others mix E3Live™ in non-citrus juice, such as apple, grape, etc. You can mix in into a delicious fruit smoothie or a green drink, too.

Many of our clients tell us that adding the Renew Me!™ Emerald Blend™ to their E3Live™ in the same smoothie or juice drink (or water) really produces a synergistic effect that enhances the benefits of both products.

Try making your own drink recipes with the E3Live™, just do not expose it to hot temperatures as that will destroy the natural enzymes in it.

4. How much E3Live™ should I eat each day?
No two people are alike. For most everybody, we recommend starting with 1 teaspoon per day. Some people will eat E3Live™ in more liberal quantities, even several ounces a day, whenever they need an added boost. Work your way up at your own pace. Trust your intuition.

5. How can E3Live™ help with my specific medical condition?
As with anything concerning your health, it is best to consult with your healthcare professional prior to consuming E3Live™ or E3AFA™ if you have any concerns regarding your health or a specific medical condition.

6. I accidentally thawed the whole bottle of E3Live™ - what do I do now?
If you defrosted the bottle of E3Live™ in your refrigerator or in a cool bowl of water, and it hasn't been thawed for more than a few hours, it should be fine. Just pour off the portion for the week that you need, then refreeze the rest. Alternately you can pour off your week's worth, then make single-serving E3Live™ ice cubes by pouring into ice cube trays that have resealable lids (to keep freezer odors out). Add the single serving cube to your water or juice as your daily dose of E3Live™.

If the E3Live™ has thawed out in a very hot room, has been out for many hours, has thawed outside in the sun, or some similar undesirable condition - check it for color and smell. If it spoils, it will turn a muddy brown color and have a "skunky" smell that will tell you that it has spoiled. If this happens - you can always mix it with water for an awesome plant fertilizer!

7. What's the difference between E3Live™ and E3AFA™?
Both are 100% Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) a freshwater plant harvested from Klamath Lake in Oregon.

E3Live™ is the frozen/liquid form of the AFA which is superior to all other forms of AFA. Vision is the only company to offer AFA in this fresh frozen form.

E3AFA™ is the Refractance-Window dried crystal flake form of the AFA, which comes as either vegetarian capsules or loose powder-like crystal flakes.

Both are excellent foods. E3Live™'s live liquid form is closest to its natural high-energy state found in nature and is the ideal way to consume AFA. Our Refractance-Window drying method retains much of AFA's original nutritional and energetic properties. We recommend our Refractance-Window dried E3AFA™ to Further boost nutritional intake, as well as for your convenience at work and while traveling if refrigeration is not available.

8. What's the difference between E3Live™ and man-made nutritional supplements?
E3Live™ is a whole, organic freshwater plant found in the wild that has both discovered and undiscovered nutrients. These nutrients are 97% fully assimilated. Only a fraction of the vitamin content of more expensive "health food vitamins" are actually absorbed by the body. Man-made supplements only contain what the formulators choose to include.

9. How is E3Live™ different from other brands of AFA from Klamath Lake?
E3Live™ is the only AFA that is live, liquid and delivered to you closest to its natural state. E3Live™ is selectively gathered by our expert harvesters, and collected from only the deepest, most pristine waters of Upper Klamath Lake. We harvest only at peak times of optimal growth, when the AFA is the heartiest, healthiest and most vibrant.

Harvesting AFA is an art AND a science. We discovered that the strongest and freshest AFA possesses the highest life-force.
The benefits of AFA are directly proportional to the quality of the harvesting source, and how the AFA is handled at every step of the process. We take pride in knowing that we bring you the most potent and powerful AFA in the world.

10. How are Vision's harvesting & filtering methods superior?
Vision's superior harvesting and proprietary filtration methods ensure the absolute highest quality. Our AFA is selectively harvested so that only the purest, most vibrant blooms are gathered. Starting at our harvest site, E3Live™ is immediately chilled to preserve its natural vitality and highest nutritional value. We work hand-in-hand with the most experienced, conscientious harvesters and knowledgeable researchers in the world.

11. How is the consistent quality of E3 products assured?
From the moment we harvest the AFA, to its final packaging, we work with only the most highly trained and qualified staff. We handle our AFA with such care from start to finish. Factors contributing to this quality include: where and how we harvest, keeping the AFA cold at all times, superior filtration and storage, and ongoing quality-control testing of all of our products. All E3 products are tested thoroughly by independent USDA certified labs for food safety, shelf-life and various other purity tests.

The benefits of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae are directly related to the care and attention given to sourcing and harvesting the product. Our quality care begins with the selection of the freshest AFA "blooms" from pristine Eagle Ridge. The harvesting is quickly followed by rapid chilling of the AFA to 34 to 37 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, our E3Live™ is Further purified by careful centrifugation, leaving a product chilled and scrupulously clean. E3Live™ is handled more expeditiously from harvest to freezer than any competitive product. Our quality control parameters, coupled with our proprietary final processing, yields the Lake's most potent source of AFA.

Unless you know the source of your AFA, there is no guarantee of quality. E3Live™ and other E3AFA™ products are harvested by the most competent harvesting team, and staff of engineers in our industry.

12. Can I feed AFA to my pets?
Absolutely. In fact, both the liquid E3Live™ and our E3 Refractance-Window dried form are favorites among veterinarians who successfully treat nutritional deficiencies in dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, horses, and other animals. Benefits are especially seen in older animals, bringing back youthfulness and a higher quality of life.

Horse owners love E3Live™ for the changes seen in hooves, coats and the overall health of their horses.

If you love your pet, you'll love E3Live™. There is no other pet food that dares to give an unconditional one-year guarantee that you will "See the Difference!" Read about other pet owner's experiences with E3Live™ in our "Success Stories" section.

13. How does E3Live™ & E3AFA™ work?
Because people report AFA helps such a wide range of physical and mental symptoms, it's easy to fall into a "magic bullet" mentality associated with pharmaceutical drugs. AFA doesn't work that way. Aphanizomenon flos-aquae is an extraordinary food, not a drug or synthesized vitamin.

Artificial drugs are synthesized in the laboratory to produce specific effects on targeted cells, organs, or body functions. Though some drugs save lives, unfortunately, some drugs also create unwanted side-effects.

In contrast, Nature's innate wisdom works through AFA's full spectrum of over 64 perfectly balanced, naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, amino acids (protein) and essential fatty acids. AFA helps restore overall biological balance and nourishes the body at the cellular level. AFA is 97% absorbable by the body, compared to man-made vitamins which are only 5% to 25% absorbable. Without any toxicity or side-effects, this is how AFA can have so many beneficial nutritional and energetic effects throughout the body.

14. When (after eating E3Live™) will I notice a difference?
The beneficial effects of E3Live™ and E3AFA™ in your body can be subtle as it works to provide long-term protection and well-being.
Some people may experience noticeable changes within a few weeks of use – others may notice differences right away or, conversely, notice no effect whatsoever.

It is important to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly in order to reap the full, long-term benefits of AFA. And, while the benefits of consuming AFA may not always be visibly manifested, be assured its phyto-nutrients are working "behind the scenes" throughout your body’s internal systems.

15. Can pregnant or nursing mothers use E3Live™?
We recommend that pregnant or nursing women consult with their medical or healthcare practitioner.

Researchers

“I’ve shared AFA algae with thousands of my patients for 24 years. There is no other blue-green algae that is alive and active as E3Live™. E3Live™ is the only really alive algae we have now. The life-force aspect of E3Live™ is the most important that singles it out. E3Live™ has the strongest possible effects, and represents a qualitative leap compared to any other algae coming out of Klamath Lake. I find that E3Live™ specifically aids the nervous system, brain functioning, depression, drug addiction, alcoholism, weight loss, blood sugar problems, increased hyperactivity and attention deficit disorders. The positive response for these and other health problems has been extraordinary. Eating E3Live™ has potential to enhance every aspect of our lives.”
Gabriel Cousens, MD, holistic physician, psychiatrist and internationally respected author of Conscious Eating, Depression: Free for Life, and other books. Founder and Director of Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center in Arizona.

“E3Live™ has more bio-available chlorophyll than any other food. In biochemical research circles, the presence of chlorophyll in such high quantities is a clear indication of the algae’s extraordinarily high life force. This inherent vitality helps keep the algae’s wide spectrum of nutrients at their absolute nutritional peak. This partially explains the mystery of how E3Live™ can have so many positive health benefits.”
Karl J. Abrams, Professor of Chemistry, nutrition researcher and distinguished author of Algae to the Rescue and ADHD-A Nutritional Approach.

“I contribute much of my rapid recovery from child birth, my high energy level and my baby’s wonderful development to AFA algae. I have since become the World’s leading advocates of wild AFA from Klamath Lake, Oregon."
Gillian McKeith, Ph.D. and author of Miracle Super food: Wild Blue-Green Algae

“I don't usually endorse products but I've found the response I've had to E3Live™, in just a few weeks, has been noticeable and positive. I think it's a unique nutritional product which has great potential to help those with chronic illness due to toxicicity/impaired detox capacity, malabsorption,and sluggish metabolism. Having had CFS for many years along with severe immune/endocrine problems, and currently being only partly functional, I've tried just about every treatment and product on the market. I noticed a difference within a week of taking E3, primarily a slight boost in energy and greater mental clarity. My cognitive processes are consistently better, mood and concentration especially, and best of all, my 'down time' to recover from activity is far less than before. I can only attribute the benefits to E3 as nothing else has changed in my regime. I believe that E3 has some particular advantages in respect to heavy metal toxicity & detox: Being an algae and water-borne, I was at first skeptical that it might have absorbed toxic metals into the cell wall, primarily mercury, from the surrounding water and air. However, I've seen independent lab reports stating that the product is free of toxic metals and chemicals. (My body would certainly have told me otherwise if it was not.) Therefore, this leaves it free to absorb YOUR toxins, and in a similar manner to the chlorella algae, it may assist in removing them from the body.

As well as assisting with detox, being so comprehensive in its makeup, I believe it's an all-in-one daily supplement, which can replace a number of others. If you're going to try this product and your health has been seriously compromised, you need to be aware that due to its high nutrient density E3 may trigger the release of toxic metals and chemicals from intracellular storage sites (but should also correspondingly help the body to neutralize & eliminate them). In order to minimize potential detox reactions I suggest you begin slowly and build up gradually. Also very important is to drink at least 2 liters of water/day and to support the body's detox systems and elimination pathways (esp. liver, gall bladder, kidneys, and gut). The first couple of weeks I did notice detox reactions, and I can only advise that for those with seriously impaired detox capacity you may need to not only take it slowly (and if necessary also be under the care of a practitioner who understands these limitations), but it may also be necessary to take additional vitamin C (poss. as sodium ascorbate), extra water, and ensure the body's elimination channels are working well (ie. don't become constipated as it will increase the risk of re-absorption via the gut).”
