What is Spirulina?

Spirulina is blue-green microalgae that grows in alkaline lakes in tropical Africa and Central America. The beneficial properties of this product were used by the Aztecs many centuries ago. 

The main feature of this seaweed is the highest content of easily digestible protein containing all the amino acids necessary for human health. In addition, it offers an extensive range of essential vitamins and minerals, including all B vitamins, copper, iron, potassium, magnesium and iodine.

The potential health benefits of Spirulina

Spirulina is a treasure trove of trace elements essential to our everyday life. It can help support the functioning of nearly all organs, increase the body's resistance to diseases and stress, accelerate wound healing, prevent premature ageing and prolong life expectancy.

In addition, studies show that Spirulina has the potential to influence almost all physiological functions of the human body:

• Strengthen the immune system by increasing the body's production of cytokines, protein molecules that fight viruses and infections.
• Help to cope with allergies more easily: even 2 g of the product per day can significantly reduce common symptoms such as nasal congestion, itchiness and sneezing.
• Increase endurance and training performance. Spirulina contains beta-carotene, vitamin A, B vitamins, and iron, as well as large quantities of protein, which makes it an ideal sports supplement. You can use it pre-workout to increase endurance and post-workout to speed up recovery.
• Boost the growth of healthy microflora in the gut. It can help to stimulate digestion and increase the activity of good bacteria in the intestines.
• Improve metabolism. Spirulina is commonly used for weight loss, as it can help reduce appetite and promote fat loss. At the same time, the body receives high-quality, easily absorbed protein that can be converted into clean energy. In addition, the product has a minimum calorie content.
• Cleanse the body due to the rich content of antioxidants which contribute to the rapid renewal of cells in internal organs and protect against free radicals.
• Support natural beauty of skin, hair and nails. Several studies show that Spirulina has powerful anti-ageing properties and can help fight oxidative stress and chronic inflammation - major threats to our youth. Because of its rich vitamin and mineral content, Spirulina powder is often used in cosmetic products to improve skin, hair, and nail health. 

Spirulina for children

Spirulina powder can be very beneficial to a growing organism, as it represents the whole complex of essential nutrients. These blue-green microalgae are a 100% natural, easily digestible product, providing an ideal ratio of amino acids, vitamins and minerals to help prevent nutritional deficiencies in kids.

In addition, Spirulina is a powerful source of iron, essential for maintaining haemoglobin levels and supporting immune health during the cold season. 

However, be sure to consult your physician or paediatrician before giving a child any dietary supplements. You can also speak with one of our practitioners online - we offer free 10-minute consultations to help you discover the best product for your health needs.

The best spirulina supplement to choose

Spirulina supplements usually come in two forms: tablets and powder. There are no differences in the benefits of algae regardless of product type, so choosing the right option is simply a matter of personal preference.

Most people find the taste of raw spirulina powder unpleasant, but you can mix it with drinks and foods. The powder is also suitable for enriching cosmetic masks to smooth and rejuvenate the skin. However, the product can lose some of its properties when heated, so you should add it to cold recipes only.

The tablet form is easier to use and ideal for those who find it hard to consume the powder due to its taste. In addition, Spirulina tablets are convenient to take anywhere - whether you are on a trip, at work, or in the gym - no preparation is required.
