As we kick off the new year in 2024, many of us have made resolutions that we hope will stick this time around. According to Time magazine, 80% of people quit their New Year’s resolution by February as people lose their motivation and resolve <1>.

Other causes of this failure include unrealistic goals and plans, lack of accountability, and losing focus. It’s easy for life to get in the way and derail your commitment to your health.

At ENERGYbits®, we’re about empowering everyone to achieve their health goals with accessible science-based tools. In this article, we will share why algae tablets can be a real game changer when it comes to helping you reach your goals.

Spirulina and Chlorella for Weight Loss

If losing weight is a big priority for you in 2024, algae tablets might help!

While diet and exercise are still crucial, algae tablets can be very helpful for weight loss in various ways, such as by improving nutrient status, boosting motivation and energy, helping with post-holiday detox, and more!

Let’s dive into why algae tablets can help you have your best year yet! Stay motivated, energized, and disciplined with algae tablets

A lack of motivation and energy to pursue healthy habits could be more based on your biology than your mentality. Both can be symptoms of lifestyle-related low-grade inflammation and oxidative stress that inhibit cellular energy production <2>. This low-level inflammation can also impact dopamine, a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood, pleasure, and behavior <3>. Suboptimal dopamine can make you feel lazy, and less ambitious, making your resolutions harder to achieve.

Both spirulina and chlorella can help mitigate these effects by acting on the gut microbiome and through glial cells in the brain <4>. Also, by boosting your mitochondrial energy production and antioxidant status, ENERGYbits® will energize you without causing crashes or sleep disruption. These mechanisms can help boost dopamine, giving you that extra edge you need to stay on track once and for all in 2024.

Nutritional insurance against cravings and fatigue

First, algae tablets are packed with micronutrients that could be low in up to 90% of the population <5>. These nutrients help your cells produce energy efficiently and mitigate cravings that can arise from nutrient deficiencies.

These surprisingly common micronutrient deficiencies can derail your success by worsening hunger, cravings, and suboptimal metabolism. As a whole food, algae tablets can be a great supplement to your current routine and help ensure that you get all the nutrients you need without side effects. They can be particularly beneficial if you have any dietary restrictions or have trouble getting all the nutrients you need from food.

While on the go, VITALITYbits® can help you ensure you get the nutrients you need to support overall health.

Boost your lean gut bacteria with algae tablets

Aside from filling up your stomach as a dietary fiber, the prebiotics in our algae tablets can very powerfully increase lean bacteria in your gut <6>. Many clinical trials found that 1 – 2 grams (4 – 8 ENERGYbits® tablets) daily spirulina supplementation combined with a caloric deficit resulted in a significantly greater reduction in the following than caloric deficit alone <7>:

• Appetite
• Body fat
• Waist circumference

These trials also consistently found that spirulina boosted metabolic health and promoted healthy blood lipids. Animal studies have also suggested that spirulina and chlorella can protect the gut lining and gut flora following occasional indulgences <8>,<9>.

Boost your workout performance and fat loss results

New Year’s resolutions often include increasing physical activity levels. Algae tablets might be the game-changer you have been looking for. They offer a unique blend of essential nutrients that provide sustained energy, and might improve workout performance <10>,<11>.

In fact, in one 8-week study involving 46 healthy overweight or obese women, 900 mg/day (~4 RECOVERYbits® tablets) of chlorella improved the benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). The most significant result was that the HIIT + chlorella reduced waist circumference by around 2 – 3 cm (~1 inch) more than the placebo + HIIT group <12>.

By enhancing your endurance and promoting quicker recovery, spirulina can help you push your limits at the gym. A meta-analysis in athletes, trained, and untrained people found that spirulina enhances:

• Endurance
• Recovery
• The body’s antioxidant response
• Muscle damage protection from exercise

As a result, it helped with exercise-related fatigue and temporary dips in immune function <13>.

High doses of spirulina (6 – 7.5 grams/day or 24 – 30 ENERGYbits® tablets) also increase hemoglobin, a protein in your blood that brings oxygen to muscles and other tissues in trained cyclists <14>. This may improve the oxygenation of your tissues, improving your energy and overall performance.

Spirulina and Chlorella Detox from the Holidays

The liver is one of your main fat-burning organs, so having a high toxic load can make it hard to shed fat <15>. Algae has been used for centuries as a detox and liver support. This can make them a great tool for after the over-indulgent holiday season.

Algae tablets are also rich in chlorophyll, which gives plants their green pigment and has detox properties <16>. Chlorophyll can bind toxins in the gut, preventing their absorption into the bloodstream and helping your body remove them. Chlorella also has chelating properties – meaning it can bind heavy metals like mercury and lead. This process makes it easier for them to be eliminated <17>.

Algae also contain plenty of antioxidants, including beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and other polyphenols <18>. These can help neutralize damaging oxidants that may result from unhealthy meals and alcohol. By reducing oxidative stress, algae tablets protect your cells and liver.

Finally, algae contain plenty of dietary fiber, which can contribute to healthy digestion <19>. Efficient digestion and regular bowel movements are essential for the elimination of waste and toxins from the body.

Final Notes

As we head into a new year, let’s make sure those resolutions finally stick. Achieving optimal health becomes a top priority, and algae tablets might be what you’ve been missing.
