             Algae
                 When I am wrapped in a wet and green mass, with the smell of
             the sea, I let myself be carried away by that sense of total relaxation,
             that feeling of “letting go” of everything that no longer serves me and
             allowing myself to receive all those nutrients and food that a seaweed
             packaging is giving the body through the skin. I just love the feeling.
                 There is an effect that a seaweed wrap has around my body, covering
             my skin completely up to my neck, and my body sticking to the table
             where I am lying and the music that helps me to relax even more.
             What a treat!

             our diet. Algae generally have a very high percentage of plant protein.
             Algae have the peculiarity of transforming chemicals around them into
             vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, and enzymes, etc. Algae
             are a complete food source, containing around 50 or 60 nutrients.
             My preferred algae are Chlorella and Spirulina.


             Chlorella

                 Chlorella is one of my favorite algae. It has very special qualities.
             The most important quality is that of being a food with alkaline
             properties. Therefore, it does not cause acidity in the body but the
