About Spiruline
Spirulina is a nutrient-rich blue-green algae known for its vibrant color and remarkable health benefits. Originating from freshwater environments in subtropical climates, it has been consumed for centuries, notably by the Aztecs and in parts of Africa. Packed with protein, vitamins (especially B-vitamins), iron, and antioxidants, spirulina is a powerhouse for supporting immune health, boosting energy, and aiding muscle recovery. It also contains essential fatty acids and phytonutrients that contribute to its anti-inflammatory properties. Spirulina is a popular addition to smoothies, salads, or health supplements and is often enjoyed in powdered or tablet form. While generally safe and beneficial, excessive consumption might lead to gastrointestinal discomfort or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Always ensure it's sourced from reputable suppliers to avoid contamination.
