What is Spirulina ?
Spirulina Spirulina is a microscopic blue-green aquatic plant which is believed to be the first form of plant on earth, nearly 3.5 billion years old. Spirulina generally found in fresh, brine and
brackish water, this tiny aquatic plant is a food source so rich in plant nutrients, vitamins,
proteins and minerals & hence it has been hailed as a "miracle food". Its deep green colour
comes from its rainbow of natural pigments, chlorophyll (green), phycocyanin (blue) and
carotenoids (orange) that harvest the sun's energy. Spirulina is easy-to-digest and so its
nutrients are absorbed quickly.
