Spirulina, pronounced spy-ro-leena or speero-leena, is an amazing blue-green sea algae that is one of the simplest living organisms on the planet. Named spirulina because of its distinctive spiral shape under a microscope, it is a natural wonder and an amazing superfood.
Spirulina grows on the surface of clean tropical ocean water in bright nourishing sunlight. The sun triggers the growth of the nutrients in spirulina, including Vitamins A, E and K, iron, magnesium, potassium, and many B vitamins. Spirulina is a rare complete plant protein and is approximately 70% protein, compared to beef which is just 22% protein. Spirulina’s rich green color is a result of its chlorophyll, the molecule used in photosynthesis, a plant’s process of absorbing sunlight and using its energy to live and grow.
Organic powdered spirulina is a key superfood in Living Fuel’s flagship functional superfood, LivingFuel SuperGreens which features an astonishing 2, 000 mg per serving of organic spirulina from the world’s top sources.
