PREMIUM GRADE INGREDIENTS - Organic Spirulina Powder - 500g

A great addition to healthy homemade smoothies, snacks and bakes. The three main benefits of our Organic Spirulina Powder are:

1. FULL OF NUTRIENTS

A single tablespoon (7 grams) of dried spirulina powder contains:

Protein: 4 grams

Vitamin B1 (thiamine): 11% of the RDA

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin): 15% of the RDA

Vitamin B3 (niacin): 4% of the RDA

Copper: 21% of the RDA

Iron: 11% of the RDA

It also contains decent amounts of magnesium, potassium and manganese and small amounts of almost every other nutrient that you need.

The quality of the protein in spirulina is considered excellent - comparable to eggs. It gives all the essential amino acids that you need.

2. POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANT

Spirulina is a fantastic source of antioxidants, which can protect against oxidative damage. Its main active component is called phycocyanin. This antioxidant substance also gives spirulina its unique blue-green colour.

3. LOWERS CHOLESTEROL

Spirulina can lower total cholesterol, 'bad' LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, while raising 'good' HDL cholesterol. In a study of 25 people with type 2 diabetes, 2 grams of spirulina per day significantly improved these markers. Another study in people with high cholesterol determined that 1 gram of spirulina per day lowered triglycerides by 16% and 'bad' LDL by 10%
