Spirulina: Complete Alkaline Natural Food
Spirulina is a tiny, blue-green algae that belongs to the genus Arthrospira and is classified as cyanobacteria. It is known for its high nutritional value and is widely used as a food supplement.
It is a single-celled alga that photosynthesizes, meaning it uses sunlight to produce energy. It thrives mainly in alkaline lakes of tropical and subtropical regions. It can grow in both fresh and salt water. It is also grown in controlled environments, such as laboratories, to reduce the risk of contamination.
Active Ingredients:
Phycocyanin: Phycocyanin is the main antioxidant component of Spirulina, which gives it its characteristic blue-green color. It has strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to fight free radicals and inhibit the production of molecules that cause inflammation.
Proteins: Spirulina contains about 60-70% protein, which is of high quality and includes all the necessary amino acids. This protein helps in muscle growth and repair, as well as maintaining the body's overall health.
Vitamins of the B Complex: Spirulina is rich in vitamins B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin) and B3 (niacin). These vitamins are essential for energy production, nervous system function and maintaining healthy skin.
Iron: Spirulina is an excellent source of iron, which is essential for the production of hemoglobin and the transport of oxygen in the blood. This helps prevent anemia and increase energy.
Chlorophyll: Chlorophyll, found in high concentrations in Spirulina, has detoxifying properties and helps remove toxins from the body. It also strengthens the health of the digestive system.
Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids: Spirulina contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in a ratio of about 1.5:1. These fatty acids are important for heart health, reducing inflammation and maintaining brain health.
Antioxidants: In addition to phycocyanin, Spirulina also contains other antioxidants such as beta-carotene and vitamin E, which protect cells from oxidative damage and strengthen the immune system.
Benefits :
Spirulina offers a multitude of health benefits including:
Strengthening the immune system: Contains vitamins of the B complex, vitamin C, E and K, as well as minerals such as iron, selenium and magnesium, which contribute to the strengthening of the immune system.
Antioxidant activity: Rich in antioxidants such as phycocyanin and beta-carotene, Spirulina helps fight free radicals and protects cells from oxidation.
Cholesterol Lowering: Studies show that Spirulina can lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides, while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol.
Improve energy and endurance: The high protein and vitamin content helps increase energy and endurance, making it ideal for athletes and people with an intense daily life.
Support weight loss: Spirulina can help with weight management by improving insulin sensitivity and regulating satiety.
