Catharine Arnston: Harnessing the Power of Nature | Spirulina and Chlorella, the Ultimate Superfoods for Vibrant Health
Algae have been around for over four billion years, and there are hundreds of thousands of scientific articles demonstrating their benefits to human health. Yet they are almost completely overlooked in Western societies! Helping bring this new super-duper food (because they're so much better than just a superfood), is Catharine Arnston, founder and CEO of ENERGYbits Inc. When Catharine’s sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and told to shift to a plant-based diet, Catharine was enlisted to help do some research into the foods she could and couldn't eat. Catharine stumbled across algae, and after going down the rabbit hole, she concluded that algae are equivalent to mother nature's breast milk! Join us today as we dive into the two major algae that contribute to human health (spirulina and chlorella), and the ENERGYbits products that contain these. Catharine breaks down what algae are, how they differ from plants and all of the many benefits they have in human health over traditional vegetables. We also find out how spirulina and chlorella differ from each other as algae and the unique health issues that they target. Andrés shares his experience when taking ENERGYbits, while Catharine addresses the nutritional value of each of the different ENERGYbits products, and who should be taking what, when. Find out more about why ENERGYbits is so unique as a company, and why you should be taking Bits today!
