Spirulina is a microscopic blue-green algae that exists as a single celled organism turning sunlight into life energy. It was first eaten regularly by North Africans and the Aztecs centuries ago.
Spirulina is a wonderful, antioxidant nutrient that helps to tone and beautify the complexion of the skin. Taken regularly, it promotes skin glow, stronger and healthier hair and nails.
The content of protein in Spirulina is higher than any other food source. Its protein content is 60-70% higher than any other natural food and most nutritional products. Unlike other forms of protein, the protein in Spirulina is 85-95% digestible, one of the highest available.
Spirulina’s outstanding nutritional profile also includes Essential Fatty Acids, GLA fatty acid, lipids, the nucleic acids (RNA and DNA), B complex, vitamin C and E and phytochemicals, such as carotenoids, chlorophyll (a blood purifier) and phycocyanin (a blue pigment), which is a protein that is known to inhibit cancer.
Many people that use Spirulina tend to feel more energized. It also helps to balance blood-sugar levels, which contributes to easier weight management.
Ingredients: Spirulina, pesticide and chemical free and grown to ecological standards.
Directions: Spirulina powder is best taken at or after breakfast, as a smoothie or with citric juices. You can take Spirulina all at once or several times a day. Some people like to take it an hour before eating to satisfy their appetite. Light sleepers may find that its energizing effect inhibits sleep, so you may want to avoid taking it late in the evening.
