Spirulina Powder, Certified Organic, Natural,
Unflavoured
What is Spirulina?
Spirulina is a form of blue-green algae that grows in both fresh-
and saltwater. It’s also commercially
produced for use in food and supplements.
It is often confused with chlorella, but the fundamental difference
between the two is that spirulina does not possess the hard cell wall that
makes chlorella difficult to break down compared to the Spirulina algae.
Spirulina is a great source of all the basic nutrients you need
such as protein, vitamins and minerals and high in chlorophyll. Research suggests that spirulina has
antioxidant and inflammation-fighting properties, as well as the ability to
help regulate the immune system.
What’s more, it’s a good source of healthy polyunsaturated fats
and the antioxidants C-phycocyanin and beta carotene.
As a supplement, Spirulina is touted for its antibacterial,
antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting, and cholesterol-lowering
potential.
Use &
Benefits:
Spirulina offers a variety of health benefits because of the
protein, minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants it contains. For example, it has a lot of magnesium, which
is the fourth-most-common mineral in your body. Magnesium is a key part of more than three
hundred enzyme reactions, making it essential to your health. Magnesium is particularly important for energy
production and glucose control.
Chlorophyll
Spirulina is high in chlorophyll, which is the pigment that gives
green plants their colour. Chlorophyll
is often referred to as "green blood" due to its oxygen potential. Chlorophyll is also thought to have remarkable
cleansing and alkalising properties to assists in the removal of toxins from
the body.
Antioxidant-Rich
Spirulina is rich in vitamins A and C, which act as antioxidants. These vitamins help fight off free radicals
that can damage your body. They help
carry free radicals out of the body and lower your health risk.
Better
Digestion
Spirulina is a great source of dietary fibre. The soluble and insoluble fibre that Spirulina
provides helps digestion in two ways: First, insoluble fibre feeds the “good
bacteria” living in your gut, helping you digest food efficiently and keeping
your intestines healthy. Second, soluble
dietary fibre helps your stomach absorb sugar more slowly, keeping your blood
sugar and cholesterol levels lower.
Bone
Health
Calcium is the main building block of bones, and having a good
source of calcium in your diet is vital for bone health. The calcium found in Spirulina
can help prevent or reverse osteoporosis. It can also help keep your teeth healthy.
