Alive Foods Organic Spirulina 120 grams

Description

Spirulina is a freshwater microalga. Spirulina is one of the earliest life forms on Earth and is incredibly rich in nutrients. It is called a blue-green alga thanks to the presence of chlorophyll and phycocyanin.

Chlorophyll is what makes plants green and is known to help with tissue growth and repair, have antioxidant properties, and optimize the body's absorption of many vitamins and minerals.

Spirulina provides a broad spectrum of nutrients with many benefits. Its cell walls contain no cellulose, which allows its nutrients to easily pass through the intestinal wall and benefit our cells. Spirulina's impressive nutritional content is therefore easily absorbed. Spirulina contains protein (all essential amino acids), carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins (except C and D), gamma-linolenic acid, chlorophyll, phycocyanin, and antioxidants. It is a complete protein and is easy for the body to digest.

Today, spirulina is known throughout the world and is used by millions of people. Modern science has found that it is a true superfood, and the Japanese government classifies it as a functional food in its own right.

Dosage for adults: Take 1/2 - 2 tsp maximum per day (preferably 30 minutes before a meal); in a glass of water, in a smoothie, in a dressing, or in another way. Start with a smaller dose and gradually increase to an amount that feels right for you. Athletes and other high-performing individuals can experiment with even higher doses for optimal effect. We use it ourselves in sauces, dressings, smoothies, soups, etc.

Dosage for children: If you want to hide the "fishy taste" and give it to adults who do not like the taste or to children, for example in a green smoothie, sweeten it with a little fresh apple juice or banana; this usually works. Children can have 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon.

The recommended dose should not be exceeded. Food supplements should not be used as an alternative to a varied diet. Store in a dry place and out of reach of children.
