Description

Spirulina has been traditionally used by indigenous populations around the
world, particularly in China, Japan and Korea. It was also an important source
of food of the Aztecs. Called ‘Tecuitlatl’ by the Aztecs, meaning “the stones
excrement”, it was commonly dried into cakes to be sold at markets and added to
food.

Popularly known as blue-green algae, Spirulina is actually a cyanobacteria.
This classification is more accurate because its genetic material is not
organized in a membrane yet it still uses the sun as a source of energy just
like plants do.

gives spirulina its blue-green color. Known as the “Wonder Molecule”, studies
of phycocyanin have shown it is a powerful antioxidant and is powerfully

the activation of essential enzymes and biochemicals related to the balanced
function of the liver and the kidneys.
