After a moment, though, he changed the subject. "I think this is a pretty good bet, this planet. You think it's no good. I'm going to talk to the chlorella companies. They grow edible yeast in tanks, and chlorella in vats, and they produce an important amount of food. But they have to grow the stuff indoors and they have a ghastly job keeping everything sterile.
He went back down to the communicator to contact the chlorella companies of Earth, to find out if there was any special data they would need to pass on the proposal. And so presently the ship took off for home. It landed on the moon first, and Johnny Simms was loaded into a space-suit and transferred to Lunar City, where he could live without being extradited back to Earth. He wouldn't stay there.
Here I should also mention the "lemon juice/cayenne pepper/maple syrup cure," the various green drink cures using spirulina, chlorella, barley green or wheat grass, and the famous Bieler broths vegetable soups made of overcooked green beans or zucchini. I do not believe that monodiets work because of some magical property of a particular food used.
Here's a place where they can sow chlorella in the oceans! They can grow yeast in lakes, out-of-doors! Suppose they use this world to grow monstrous quantities of unattractive but useful foodstuff in a way wild? It will be good return-cargo material for ships taking colonists out to our other planets. I suppose," he added meditatively, "they'll ship it back in bulk, dried." Holden blinked.
"There are some things that a computer can't do as well as a human being, and one of them is farm the foods on which humanity is accustomed to feed. A man'll pay two credits for a steak. He could get a Chlorella substitute for half a credit, but he'll still buy the steak if he can afford it. Same thing goes for fruit, vegetables, grain, and garden truck.
Try to buy the kind of lecithin that has the highest phosphatidyl choline content because this substance is the second benefit of taking lecithin. Phosphatidyl choline is another precursor used by the body to build acetylcholine and helps maintain the nervous system. Algae. Spirulina or sun dried chlorella are also great food supplements. Both make many people feel energized, pepped-up.
