Spirulina algae

Spirulina algae...

The blue-brown inhabitant of salt and fresh waters, which is called spirulina, is considered one of the oldest plants on the planet. It got its name in connection with its spiral structure and reached us in its original form (without genetic changes). The miraculous properties of spirulina algae were appreciated by the Aztecs, who ate it by making tortillas from this algae.

Currently, this product, containing a large amount of antioxidants, proteins, essential fatty acids, trace elements, beta-carotene, vitamins and minerals, is widely distributed around the world. You can find spirulina algae in many pharmacies and shops in dried form, crushed to a powdery state. It is produced in capsules or tablets. It is noteworthy that for vegetarians it is the main source of protein, and athletes eat spirulina to maintain muscle performance and excellent shape. This unique product in its composition acts as a natural additive in juices and energy bars. The dietary properties of spirulina algae are actively used in the manufacture of many biologically active additives.

This unique edible seaweed is an absolutely eco-friendly product. The beneficial properties of spirulina algae with regular use are the intensive elimination of toxins from the body, in the process of which each individual cell receives the most valuable, vital elements for it, while recovering and rejuvenating.
