Spirulina, a wholly natural and exceptionally nutritious microalgae, originates from the alkaline lakes of South America and Africa. This spiral-shaped plant has been a crucial part of various diets for centuries. Recognized since the 1970s, Spirulina is now a popular dietary supplement in several countries.

Boasting a high concentration of vegetable protein (60-63%, triple or quadruple that of fish or beef), Spirulina is exceptionally beneficial, especially for vegetarian diets where it compensates for Vitamin B12, found in abundance here (3-4 times more than in animal liver). It encompasses a spectrum of minerals, including Iron, Potassium, Magnesium, Sodium, Phosphorus, and Calcium. Notably, its Beta-carotene content, which aids in cell protection, is significantly higher than in carrots and spinach (5 times and 40 times, respectively). Spirulina is also rich in gamma-Linolenic acid, known for its cholesterol-reducing and heart disease-preventing potential. Unique to Spirulina is Phycocyanin, a pigment with various health benefits.

In the United States, NASA has selected Spirulina as an astronaut food for space missions and is considering its cultivation in space stations in the foreseeable future.

Spirulina is 100% natural and a highly nutritious micro salt water plant. It was discovered in South American and Africa in natural alkaline lakes. This spiral shaped algae is a rich food source. For a long time (centuries) this algae has constituted a significant part of the diet of many communities. Since the 1970's, Spirulina has been well known and widely used as a dietary supplement in some countries.
Spirulina contains rich vegetable protein (60~ 63 %, 3~4 times higher than fish or beef ), multi Vitamins (Vitamin B 12 is 3~4 times higher than animal liver), which is particularly lacking in a vegetarian diet. It contains a wide range of minerals (including Iron, Potassium, Magnesium Sodium, Phosphorus, Calcium etc.), a high volume of Beta- carotene which protects cells (5 time more than carrots, 40 time more than spinach), high volumes of gamma-Linolein acid (which can reduce cholesterol and prevent heart disease). Further, Spirulina contains Phycocyanin which can only be found in Spirulina.
In USA, NASA have chosen to use it for astronauts food in space, and even plan to grow and harvest it in space stations in the near future.
