Original Limu - 3,000 year-old Secret Revealed

The Limu Company.

The search for “new” natural remedies has been going on for a very, very long time. The pursuit for such health remedies has stretched from the windswept plains of Siberia to the jungles of South America. Once in a while, the quest reveals a plant with such rare nutritional qualities that scientists from many continents undertake intense research to study and document its benefits. Such is the case with limu. However, this unique plant won’t be found in Siberia or in the jungles of South America, it grows in the nutrient rich waters of the South Pacific.

Natives of the remote Kingdom of Tonga have consumed the brown-colored sea plant for more than 3,000 years. It grows in abundance in the pristine waters surrounding the Tongans island paradise. The limu plant must endure challenging conditions to survive in its harsh environment, and as a result, has evolved to form a unique protection. It has its own slippery moisture barrier, thanks to an ingredient in its cell walls known as fucoidan. This unique compound protects the plant from the turbulent oceans and intense sunlight. It is a remarkable sulfated polysaccharide with unique health-protecting properties.

Fucoidan was actually isolated in limu over 30 years ago which has not been found in any land-based fruit or plant. It has only been found in the sea and only in certain types of brown seaweed. Tongan limu is the richest source of brown seaweed in the world. Fucoidan has been the focus of over 700 scientific clinical studies. Following a discovery of its unique capacity to regenerate cells, the number of published fucoidan studies has increased exponentially, and all yielding scientific proof of what the Tongans have known for centuries.


Multimillion-dollar Extract

The painstaking research and development that resulted in Original Limu began in 1987. Several scientists embarked on a mission to extract fucoidan and other nutrients from the Limu plant, while preserving nutritional potency. Thousands of research hours, many millions of dollars in funding, and 15 years later, they developed a chemical-free extraction process, only available from The Limu Company (TLC).

FUCOIDAN appears to address some of our most urgent health concerns, including many that confound modern medicine.

From sea to bottle, each step of the Original Limu manufacturing process is characterized by a commitment to optimizing nutritional value and ensuring the highest standards of quality control. The sea plant is harvested from the pristine waters around the Islands of Tonga, which are free from heavy metals and other pollutants. Adhering to the strictest environmental standards, no motorized boats are allowed in the harvesting area. Government-licensed harvesters paddle out in canoes, dive into the crystal-clear waters and harvest the limu, taking care not to damage the delicate coral reefs in the area.

The harvested crop is inspected, then flash-frozen to preserve its nutritional potency and prevent spoilage. The harvested limu then undergoes TLC’s proprietary, chemical-free extraction process. This results in a liquid that is “pre-digested”, making the limu nutrients highly bio-available. The extract is tested and analyzed to ensure it’s free from pollutants and bacteria.

Next comes the blending. To blend the limu with the other Original Limu drink ingredients, TLC uses a proprietary, chill-blending process, which takes place in an FDA-inspected facility in strict accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices. Once blended, each batch of Original Limu is tested to ensure it’s free from contaminants, and analyzed for nutritional content. Finally, the product is packaged in sterilized glass bottles by a hygienic automated bottling system. It is then ready to be shipped around the world.

Nutritious and Delicious
While many liquid nutritional supplements sacrifice taste for nutritional potency, Original Limu delivers both. Each bottle of Original Limu is 83 percent reconstituted pure Tongan Limu, blended with papaya, mango, pear, and apple. The golden nectar includes all the goodness only nature can provide, with no added sugar, and no artificial flavors, sweeteners or colors. The result is a nutrient-packed beverage with the flavor of a tropical punch.

Doctors recommend Original Limu to their patients to enhance energy, immune health and overall well-being. Considering the many health benefits of fucoidan, as well as the other antioxidants and glyconutrients in limu, its little wonder that experiences of Original Limu product users span a range of health issues. Customer reports include:

Restful sleep
More energy
Improved joint mobility
Healthy immune function
Healthy cell growth
Healthy gastrointestinal function
Healthy blood glucose levels
Healthy cholesterol levels
Smoother, softer skin
Improved overall health and well-being

The good news about Original Limu has not only spread rapidly by word of mouth, but has also caught the attention of national media outlets. The product has appeared in several prominent publications, including the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Biomed Business Journal, Natural Health and Women’s Health and Fitness. Original Limu has also been featured on all four major television news networks: ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX.

As more and more people turn to whole-food natural supplements to help keep their immune systems strong in a challenging world, Original Limu emerges as the obvious solution for ongoing good health. The Tongan people have always been known to be robust, healthy and full of life and vigor, even in old age. Now, thanks to The Limu Company, the Tongans’ ancient secret is out. Drinking just two to four ounces of the delicious nectar each day can strengthen our immune system and deliver the health rewards of fucoidan, antioxidants, glyconutrients and more. Without needing to dive for limu, or chew your way through mounds of seaweed, you can enjoy the same vigor, well-being and longevity as the Tongans – straight from the bottle.

The product lets the body heal and rebalance itself at the cellular and sub-cellular level. I am able to keep many of my patients off pharmaceutical medications, or at the very least, decrease or minimize their use.” - Donna Antarr, M.D.

“Original Limu is the one product I have gotten the most results from in all my years of practicing medicine. I have been using it with my patients for six months and have seen amazing results. I was initially drawn by the numerous published studies on fucoidan, showing a broad range of benefits. I became impressed with the company’s purity testing, ensuring that toxic elements are not present. It fits into my concept of a ‘superfood’, which people of all ages can take on a daily basis, deriving benefits from the unique nutritional components. The most common benefit is a greater sense of well-being and stamina.”

“I have found Original Limu to be very useful to me personally and with my patients, offering a wide range of benefits to people at all levels of health. My experiences with patients support the findings of various in vitro and animal studies. Real-life results are incontrovertible, without negative side effects. The product is not a drug, but awhole food and is non-toxic. I believe it works primarily because the fucoidan and antioxidants in it help boost the immune system.” - James S. Grant, M.D.

“In my opinion, I have in my hands the greatest health discovery of our time, even surpassing the discovery of penicillin and antibiotics. My opinion derives from my own health-enhancing experience with Original Limu as well as the dramatic positive experiences of well over a hundred people with whom I have shared it.”

Limu, Fucoidan, and the Immune System?

nutrition, LIMU

Inside Your Immune System

The immune system is the body’s natural defense against infectious organisms and other invaders. It consists of a complex network of specialized cells that defend the body against attacks and can also fight cancers. This battle by our immune system is continuous, and without it we would quickly be ravaged by diseases.

A healthy immune system recognizes antigens that threaten your health and, through precise cell-to-cell communication, marshals forces to defend against and attack any “invaders”. After absorbing the foreign invader, special cells called macrophages secrete growth factors that promote a controlled inflammatory reaction to initiate the wound healing process.

Sometimes our immune system attacks our own cells. When that happens, the result is an autoimmune disease, such as Lupus erythermatosis (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis. Unfortunately, modern medicine has no cures, and treatments, such as steroids, can damage tissues, bones, and our immune system.
