Klamath Lake Blue-Green Algae (E3 Live) Review

If you’re a first-time visitor, you may have missed my recent delivery of packages and upcoming reviews, Sunday fun and news or ShimmerOrganics. You might also enjoy A Package and a Story – this one is dear to my heart…  Be sure to check ‘em out!

Note: E3Live sent me samples, but I have not been paid to write this review. The thoughts I share in this post are my honest opinions.

Why E3Live?

As most of you know, I talked quite a bit about E3Live during my 30-day juice fast (and some afterward).

It wasn’t my intentions to “up and stop mentioning this fantabulous product” – I’ve just had a lot going on and got swamped with all the incoming packages and other freelance projects I’m obligated to.

There’s actually a story about me and E3Live….

A few years ago, I met a raw foodist. I was fascinated by this man. His skin was pure perfection. His hair was dark and shiny and luscious. His eyes were clear and bright. Totally amazing.

And, no, not that kind of fascination – he was married! I’m talking about just being mesmerized by the overall picture of perfect health. I still can’t get over it!

We talked about how he’d lost a significant amount of weight and improved his health dramatically, and how I’d done the same. While I was a LOT healthier than I used to be, I still didn’t have that pristine appearance he did, and I still wasn’t as healthy as I wanted to be. The difference? You’re thinking it was the raw food, right? Nope. I had been a 100% raw foodist off and on and was high-raw, even then. So, while raw food plays a HUGE role in my health improving, there was something more.

So… what was the difference in our health journeys? E3Live. Yep. That’s it. He was a dedicated E3Live customer; I wasn’t. Actually, I’d never heard of it until he introduced me to it that day.

There was another difference in us, though: He was able to spend money that I didn’t have. He was a successful business man and I was climbing my way out of financial ruins (due to barely surviving domestic violence and enduring so many health issues I wasn’t able to work).

And THAT’S why I was sooooooooooooo very honored to have the opportunity to receive samples of E3Live and BrainOn – what a blessing!

Now, on to the review of E3Live (BrainOn review will be next)….

About the Company

E3Live was founded in 1991, by President Michael Saiber. Dr. Ann Wigmore introduced him to the raw lifestyle over 30 years ago — he’s 67, but certainly doesn’t look it! (See, I’m telling you… it’s that LOOK of pristine health!)

President

Michael Saiber, President of E3Live, benfits of algae

Michael enjoys a variety of exercises. He’s huge on health and fitness, is a lecturer, and has a genuine heart for helping people – particularly those suffering from chronic illness and birth defects. He thrives on consuming the blue-green algae he’s so passionate about, and is known for truly “walking the talk.”

In a world filled with deceit and people who don’t practice what they preach, I’d say that’s quite the honorable man who lives what he says he does!

CEO, Owner

Tamera Campbell, CEO, Owner, E3Live

Tamera has over 20 years of business management experience and has had the amazing opportunity to work closely with Dr. Brian Clement (of Hippocrates Health Institute), Dr. Gabriel Cousens, and Dr. Fred Bisci, and others.

She also lectures and is the creator of some of the best-selling green health products out there. Well-known doctors and clinics use Tamera’s formulas. (How awesome is that?!)

Oh, and Tamera is 46 – and radiantly beautiful!

E3Live’s blue-green algae is harvested from Klamath Lake in Oregon:

“Upper Klamath Lake is free of adverse bacteria, heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides. The lake receives an average 300 days of sunlight per year which provides a perfect growing environment for the world’s richest strain of wild AFA blue-green algae, scientifically known as Aphanizomenon flos-aquae. The alkaline lake water provides more than 60 times the nutrients needed for the algae to grow to its full potential each year. Under the right conditions, AFA algae can reproduce every 20 minutes, which provides a plentiful abundance of this organic, high life-force, miracle super food.”– www.E3Live.com

From my research and my experience with E3Live’s customer service, I have found them to be passionate and kind people who strive to not only represent themselves in a professional manner and create quality products, but they genuinely care about us wholeheartedly!

Read it out for yourself:

“Thanks to you, over $250,000 worth of products have been donated to clients and patients of our clients. The recipients of these donations have serious illnesses rendering their financial condition unable to purchase anything not covered by medical insurance. By supporting our products, you can help us continue this effort.”www.E3Live.com

E3Live was mentioned in People Magazine!

This blue-green algae is overflowing with goodies for our bodies to gobble up!

I love that the company is so dedicated to quality:

“We are very critical and selective when it comes to harvesting, filtering, testing and formulating all our products. Our harvesting and purity testing is of utmost importance to us. We not only meet, but exceed quality and safety standards for harvesting processes.”– www.E3Live.com

Pros

The pros of E3Live are endless, really. It’s loaded with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and all sorts of healthy goodies our bodies are crying out for.

From E3Live’s website:

  1. Increase endurance and stamina
  2. Lift and balance mood to reduce stress
  3. Increase mental focus and concentration
  4. Balance blood-sugar levels
  5. Speed up recovery time
  6. Restore overall biochemical balance (1)
  7. Enjoy long-lasting energy boost (2)
  8. Grow healthier skin, nails and hair
  9. Truly enhance overall well-being

That’s a LOT of pros!!

Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids!

E3Live health benefits

For Pets!

The caring people at www.E3Live.com didn’t forget – you can share the benefits with your furry friends!

E3Live is fantabulous for your PETS!! Pet lovers, I know you’re happy right now!! :-D

Cons

The only cons I can find that you might not see as “Pros” are three things:

  1. The price. Now, while I absolutely believe in this product and have seen for myself how taking it daily enhanced my health, energized me, and just made me “feel better,” I do absolutely understand that $150 isn’t pocket change. And, honestly, I couldn’t have enjoyed its benefits if I hadn’t received samples to review. However, you DO get 5 bottles for that price. Because of having to make special shipping arrangements, the company has found that shipping 5 bottles in each box results in the best freshness and transport success.
  2. The taste. I’m personally used to the wonderful “green” taste health products often have. I’ve chugged potent herbal tonics, teas, and all sorts of concoctions. So, some of you may not like the taste. But the good news is… you can disguise it by tossing a serving into a smoothie or other recipe and enjoy its health benefits while your taste buds enjoy something yummy!
  3. The preparation. I freelance, so I’m at home, but I can understand someone who works outside the home a gazillion hours a week being afraid they might not have time to thaw and prepare the upcoming week’s servings. To ease your conscience, I’m sharing directions below to show you this isn’t really a con – you just might think it is…

How to Thaw E3Live Products

You don’t have to be nervous about how to thaw and consume E3Live. It only takes a few minutes to prepare your servings for the week.

E3 Live, Brain On

  1. Simply take your bottle out of the freezer.
  2. Pop it in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes.
  3. Then pour 7 tablespoons of the melted liquid into a small jar or container with a lid.
  4. Put your bottle back in the freezer, and your small jar in the fridge for easy access during the week.
  5. That’s it!

See, I told you it’s easy!

How to Take E3Live

I personally just take a tablespoon straight up, but I’ve also added it to my green juice (as shown above) – especially during my 30-day juice fast.

You can also add it to smoothies or other recipes (think: raw fudge, etc.)

The possibilities are only as limited as your imagination and ingredients! :-D

Verdict/Grade?

I’m sure after reading all this, you know I’m going to give E3Live an A+ grade. I have to, ya know? With such dedicated, caring people striving to help make the world a healthier place, only the highest grade applies. I give them extra points for donating their products to the less fortunate, who’d never be able to afford them. That speaks loudly of their character and what their business is all about. That, to me, shows they care more about us than they do about sales.

Thank you, E3Live, for being generous with samples – and with your heart!!

Have you ever taken E3Live supplements? What did you think of the taste? What kind of results did you have? Would you like to try it, but don’t have the extra money to? Stay tuned…

The Surprise?

After my review of BrainOn, E3Live is sponsoring a contest so one lucky winner can be rich with FIVE bottles of their awesome, blue-green algae (3 bottles of the original formula; 2 of BrainOn + a shaker cup—over a $200.oo value!!!). Get ready!!!

Thanks Michele for posting this review. Soo thorough as are all your reviews. I dont think I could do the taste (or the price!) :( Sadly I have actually gotten wimpier not heartier when it comes to chugging green foods. Weird, I know. Anyway thanks for the great review!

You’re welcome, Averie! And thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed it! I do believe it is a wonderful value (5 bottles for that price) and I think it’s fantabulous for those who are able to work it into their budget. I most certainly would buy it regularly if I could!! :-D

I once saw a video on youtube showing where E3 Live is harvested and bottled. It was super interesting and I’ve been infatuated since!
I recommend finding friends or family to share the purchase price and healthful results!
My favorite about this amazing product is I feel lucky to be in the Pacific Northwest where it is harvested!
Thanks for sharing Michele!

By the way, I find the taste not too bad and easily masked. Personally I could go either way, straight or in smoothies, etc. Have you tried it in raw soup yet? mmm! Gorgeous color!

No, I haven’t tried it in raw soup – fantabulous idea!!! Thanks, Renee!!! :-D

I hadn’t tried this until the other day where I had a big shot of it. I felt GREAT! I do think it is expensive so at this point I’d rather have it once in awhile.

Actually, it has a mild “green” taste to me. Ah, but there’s a huge distance between us. I’d make you a green smoothie with E3Live if you were closer, though! :-D

Michele,

Yikes, that is a bit spendy, but I think about trips to the doctor and prescriptions and all of a sudden $150 doesn’t seem too bad.

On my list this goes!

Hey, George!

Yeah, just a little. If you’re looking at the whole $150, it seems too costly, but if you break it down that’s only about $30 per bottle. If there was a couple of friends you could go together with on cost and shipping and then split the bottles, you could perhaps get ya some of this green stuff! I realize budgets are tight these days, though. Totally understandable!! :-D

This review was great – I loved your description of the fascinating man! I could seriously picture him.

I’ve read about the wonders of algae but have yet to try it – probably because of the price and the fact that it’s not easy to find. Thanks for the review and your thoughts, this was great!

I really-really-really want to try this stuff. If it weren’t for the price, I would have whipped out my credit card and ordered it after reading your review. The testamonials on their site are glowing…but most of all I trust your opinion. If you say it works, I believe you. Now I just need to figure out how to scrape together the cost during the costly holidays! :)

Hi, Cyn! I know you want to try this badly. I know not everyone can afford extra supplements like this for their health and that’s why I’m SO honored and excited to be able to host this contest sponsored by E3Live. The winner of this contest will be truly blessed! :-D

Wow, I had heard alot of praise for E3 Live, but now I know why. I don’t think you can have a great company without great people running it. I love everything about this company. Do you happen to know if they have a Canadian site? I’m going to go check out their site now. Their is so much to learn :)
