Hey Dave, I hope you had a great Turkey Day! And
wow, you're quick, and good, hehehehehe.
Thank you I'm going to read all these. From the
date on the original email I reckon it was
originally posted before I joined the list. Thank
you again for posting these. I appreciate the time
and effort you put into reposting them:) And this
first email answered some of my questions, LOL.
I'll be saving these to my Hard Drive:)

The recent posts relating to algal species prompt me to make some
comments as to effectivity in human health.....especially for their use
as prophylactic supports. We have used and evaluated, numerous members
of this class of plants in multiple evaluations throughout the past 20
years. One comment I can make with high confidence.....from the
microscopic types to the giant kelps, the most, consistently useful, has
presented from the representatives from the "larger-fronded" types; and
from among them.....the finest has proven to be the Icelandic
representative known as Thorvin (the trade name).
Chromista is a Kingdom-level taxonomic group which does not store their
energy in the form of starch. Additionally, the photosynthetic chromists
frequently carry "pigments" in addition to chlorophyll. It is these
pigments which give them their gold, reddish, or brown color.
Actually, there are 3 types of chlorophyll;
Type A....All plants, algae and cyanobacteria which synthesize, contain
chlorophyll A.
Type B....Occurs "only' in green algae and in plants.
Type C.....Is found only in the photosynthetic members of Chromists and
dinoflagellates.
While it is true that in certain specific cases, representatives such as
Angel's Hair Seaweed (fucoidan containing),some of the Brown seaweed
representatives....and gold colored varieties, exhibit more pronounced
health effects----generally, they do not justify their additional
expense (in our opinion). Also, the cost differential between many of
these, and Thorvin-type kelps.....is enormous.
Without question, in my mind, the most useful recommendation for
supporting human health which I have ever given this list
membership....has been to encourage the inclusion of Marine Kelp in
their daily diets. We, categorically contend, without the full-spectrum
of required minerals (in assimilable form)....complete utilization of
the vitamin family is not possible. Kelp, alone, among present
life-forms....
avails us this treasure for human health.
Do forgive this lengthy post, but it is well-meant.
Sincerely,
Brooks Bradley.
P.S. I do not mean to minimize the value of Maxicrop or any of the other
English or Norwegian kelps presently available. They are all useful
products....just not up to the quality of the Icelandic material....at
least in our opinion.
