About Fresh spirulina

Fresh spirulina is a vibrant, nutrient-dense superfood derived from blue-green algae, often considered one of the most complete food sources on Earth. Native to warm, freshwater environments, spirulina has been consumed for centuries in cultures like those of the Aztecs and Central Africa, prized for its energy-boosting properties. Packed with protein, essential amino acids, vitamins B1, B2, and B3, iron, and antioxidants, fresh spirulina supports immunity, muscle growth, and overall vitality. It's also rich in chlorophyll, which helps detoxify the body. Unlike dried forms, fresh spirulina boasts a creamy texture and mild flavor, making it versatile for smoothies, dressings, or even eaten plain. It’s low in calories and free of common allergens, but high doses may cause digestive discomfort in some individuals. This remarkable, plant-based superfood is perfect for those seeking a natural way to enhance their diet and fuel their active lifestyle.
