Some of the finest blue green algae on the planet. Our Klamath Lake AFA is wild harvested at peak season from the pristine, mineral rich waters of Upper Klamath Lake, then gently dried to keep its nutrition intact. It is packed with plant protein, chlorophyll, B vitamins, beta carotene, trace minerals and omega fatty acids, a true whole food multivitamin from nature that nourishes the body while it does its own natural cleansing and detox work.
 
Klamath Lake blue-green algae is one of the most nutrient dense foods you can put in a jar. Klamath Lake blue-green algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae or AFA) is a nutrient dense superfood wild-harvested from Oregon's Upper Klamath Lake. It is a rich source of vegan protein, chlorophyll, B-vitamins, and antioxidants.
 
Many people take it for energy, for focus, and as part of looking after their immune system. Klamath Lake blue-green algae, primarily wildcrafted Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) from Oregon, is best known for the molecule of love (PEA), which is what a lot of people take it for when they want a lift in mood and clarity. It is also rich in phycocyanin, the blue antioxidant pigment, along with protein and vitamins.
 
What Exactly Is Klamath Lake Blue Green Algae?
Klamath Lake Blue Green Algae, also known as Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), is a naturally occurring organism that grows in freshwater lakes. The most well-known source is Upper Klamath Lake in Oregon, USA.
 
This is not a man-made environment. The lake is fed by mountain runoff, rich in natural minerals, and benefits from long periods of sunlight throughout the year. These conditions allow the algae to grow naturally in seasonal blooms, without the need for artificial intervention.
 
At the right time, these blooms are carefully harvested. What matters most is that it's a single-ingredient whole food. There are no fillers, no binders, no synthetic additives. What you get is simply the algae itself, gently processed into a safe, usable form.
 
What's Inside Klamath Lake Blue Green Algae?
This is where it becomes particularly interesting for people who are already taking multiple supplements. Klamath Lake Blue Green Algae naturally contains:
Protein
Biotin
Folic Acid
Vitamin A (Beta-Carotene)
Vitamin D
Vitamin B complex including B1, B2 and B12
Minerals including Iron, Magnesium, Calcium and Potassium
Chlorophyll and plant pigments
Essential fatty acids including Omega 3, Omega 6 and ALA
Essential amino acids including Phenylethylamine (PEA) and Tryptophan
Non-essential amino acids including Alanine and Arginine
 
Why People Take It
Mood and Mental Clarity: Rich in phenylethylamine (PEA), a compound many people take it for when they want a brighter, clearer day.
Antioxidant Support: Its blue pigment, phycocyanin, has been reported to help the body handle everyday oxidative stress.
Immune Support: Contains polysaccharides, and is traditionally taken as part of looking after general immune health.
An Area of Active Research: Early studies have looked at AFA extract and adult stem cell activity. That work is preliminary and it does not show what the algae will do in any one person, but it is part of why researchers keep returning to this organism.
Nutrient Dense: Provides a robust profile of plant-based protein, chlorophyll, essential fatty acids, and trace minerals.
