Dr Ripley Fox's landmark book
about spirulina
|
Spirulina has been known for hundreds of
years but it's only been a few decades since Dr Ripley Fox published
the first in-depth study of its potential. Since then, the use of
Spirulina as a healthy complement to diet has soared and Spirulina
tablets can be found quite easily in health stores. 5g of spirulina
bring the proteins, vitamins needed by a 15 years old teenager. The
CSV has built a full installation in a village and health statistics
show a spectacular improvement amongst the local people. Even is this
installation cannot yet function without proper supervision of the
CSV personnel, lots of progress has been made towards the design of
simpler plants that could be built in quantities in villages, providing
local inhabitants with much-needed vitamins, proteins, etc...
Spirulina grows in troubled water and in tropical countries. The
CSV has successfully acclimated spirulina and designed a low-maintenance
spirulina growing plant. This plant produces spirulina with an acceptable
quality.
