Spirulina (Arthrospira): An Important Source of Nutritional and Medicinal Compounds

Imagine a thing that can nourish your body by providing most of the protein you need to live, help prevent the annoying sniffling and sneezing of allergies, reinforce your immune system, help you control high blood pressure and cholesterol, and help protect you from cancer. Does such a “super food” exist? Yes. It’s called Spirulina. 

Unlike plants you may grow in your garden, this “miracle” plant is a form of blue-green algae that springs from warm, fresh water bodies. Two thirds of the world is covered with water. The earliest form of life which existed in water, was algae. There are around 25,000 species of algae in the world. When we casually walk on the beach we find sea weed which are in the biggest form of algae some like little trees with roots, stems, branches and leaves. Algae were the first life form on earth. Algae can reproduce itself. The dying algae delivers the nutrients for the new growing algae. Among that the most prominent food algae is Spirulina. 

Spirulina is a microscopic blue -green algae in the shape of a perfect  spiral coil living both in sea and fresh water. It is the first photosynthetic life form was designed by nature 3.6 billion years ago. It is the life form that consuming, for billions of years, carbon dioxide releasing oxygen, transforming an inhospitable planet into our beautiful global home and regarded as the worlds first complete super food and most powerful nutrient rich food on earth. As living proof of Spirulina as a complete food, an old Japanese philosopher was claimed to have lived exclusively on Spirulina for 15 years! Doubtless, an unexciting diet, but perhaps his taste buds were a little jaded.

These tiny green spiral coils harvest the energy of the sun, growing a treasure of bio-available nutrients. It contains everything life needed to evolve,   up to 60% to 70% protein and in total over 100 nutritional elements. Spirulina is used as a human dietary supplement as well as a whole food and is available in tablet, capsule, flake, and powder form. It is also used as a feed supplement. Kept dry and airtight, without excessive exposure to bright sunlight, Spirulina will remain fresh & vibrant with a shelf life of up to 5 years. Today it is used as the phenomenal food with unmatched nutritional benefits. The largest mammal on earth is the whale which lives solely on Phyto-plankton algae; the largest mammal on land is the elephant which eats green matter only.The amazing properties of this micro algae came to light in the late 60s. By the 80s, there were millions of devotees of this amazing food in over 40 countries around the world.

Spirulina is a blue-green algae found in oceans and salty lakes. The wholesome food supplement rarely, if ever, seen in a single food.
