UMAC Core stands for Unique Marine Algae Concentrate. What this means in more simplified terms is that UMAC Core is made up of microscopic salt-water algae. In fact under ingredients, “proprietary blend marine phytoplankton” is the only one listed. The algae is harvested from the Georgia Straits off the coast of Vancouver Island and the product is made in a nearby Vancouver Island.
Why would anyone want to make a dietary supplement out of algae, you may ask? The philosophy behind UMAC Core is that all life began in the ocean, and as a species we are missing vital nutrients and antioxidants that cannot be found in land food. This is primarily because we as humans are composed of nearly 75% water, much of which is found in our circulatory system, a part of the body that has to be at its most efficient in order to adequately supply the rest of our bodies with needed oxygen. The advertisement on the bottle promises that UMAC Core “supports cellular health, promotes energy and vitality,” and is an “excellent source of micro-nutrients.”
The product, which typically comes in a 500 mg or 90 count bottle, must be taken three times a day. It has been hailed as an herbal cure for everything from enhanced vitality to decreasing asthma breakouts.
So the question one might naturally ask in the face of these claims is “does it work?”
The answer is a resounding yes.
UMAC Core is unique because it is able to provide a combination of amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that are not found in other sources. Additionally, like the healthy plant foods we have long been advised to consume, UMAC Core is rich in chlorophyll.
A thirty day trial resulted for me increased energy. The days of being sluggish from the time the alarm clock went off to about mid-noon and then again from 6 p.m. to bedtime were a thing of the past once I began taking UMAC Core. I noticed a discernable difference almost immediately, and after a week, my days were going much more smoothly than ever before. Imagine actually being able to get up when the alarm clock went off, and not grump my way through the morning before becoming fully alert!
I also noticed a definite change in my immune system. Normally, I’m the first to fall down with any sickness that passes by the office, but the month I was taking UMAC Core, my business came down with a nasty bout of flu. At least, everyone did except for me. I was able to escape it, due to my little wonder immune booster.
The health care market is an increasingly complex place full of new products that come out every day. Our natural inclination is to avoid the new products as “shams” or “rip offs.” While that urge is understandable, particularly in a financial market such as the one we are currently in, it would be a definite mistake to categorize UMAC Core in such a fashion.
