Organic Spirulina-Blue Green Algae

There is only one word that can be used when talking about Spirulina, well maybe two. Perfect and superfood. Spirulina has been called the closest thing to a perfect food that we have on the planet. The studies and research that have been done show that Spirulina can replace many other nutritional and health supplements due to its vast and diverse nutritional profile. This is the stuff that NASA adds to its astronauts food to enhance the nutrition, does that tell you something? Although it may sound high tech, its really not, in fact its one of the oldest living organism on the planet, dating back more the 3 billion years! Spirulina is a form of blue green algae that grows in both fresh and saltwater environments. It is this algae that is so diverse that it contains every bit of nutrition needed for life to evolve as we have seen over the years. The use of Spirulina as a health supplement dates back a long way as well with some of the first documented uses being from the Aztecs.

Spirulina Powder

The most common form of consumption for Spirulina is through powder or a compressed powder tablet. Depending on your preferences you might lean one way or the other, but the bottom line is you want Spirulina, not fillers, so make sure that you're buying pure Spirulina and not some brand with fillers in it. Nutrex makes as tested the most nutrient dense Spirulina powder and tablets on the planet and they are meticulous about the growing, harvesting and packaging methods, so naturally they are on the top of our list when it comes to Spirulina supplements.
