Spirulina is becoming increasingly attractive to nutritionists and health conscious consumers around the globe for many reasons.

To live in optimum heath every body needs nutrients for growth, maintenance and reproduction and a typical western diet may no longer supply the sustenance our bodies need in order to repair and maintain vitality.

Spirulina is principally composed of protein, carbohydrates, fats and ash (sodium and potassium). It also contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed to maintain balance and well being. Spirulina has a long history of safe human consumption and over 30 years of commercial safety testing. It meets all international food quality and safety standards. Spirulina has the most remarkable concentration of functional nutrients ever known in any food, plant, grain or herb. Spirulina contains ALL the essential amino acids and as such can be described as a 'complete protein'.

Once Spirulina ingested, your body feels energy within minutes of consuming it. Because digestion is the biggest process occurring in the body, the body will send most of its blood supply to the digestive organs. This aids in digestion but can result in a tired, sluggish feeling. Spirulina is the total opposite. Because it can be consumed as a liquid, you feel light and energized as it provides energy and nourishment between meals or in place of a meal.

• When mixed with water a premium spirulina is absorbed by the body almost immediately. There is no strain on the digestive organs so you don't feel sluggish like you can do after regular meals.

On top of all this, Spirulina delivers more nutrition per acre than any other food on the planet. This has many exciting implications for more efficient, less damaging food production for the future. Spirulina cultivation requires little or no use of herbicides or pesticides and is energy efficient. Because it does not erode, deteriorate or pollute its natural habitat it is the sensible choice for sustainable living.
