Spirulina is a microscopic blue-green algae. The name Spirulina is derived from the words “Spiru” (spiral) and “Lina” (little). Spirulina is the ONLY food that contains no cell wall making it easier for the body to absorb and utilize its nutrients. Spirulina is rich in vitamins and nutrients, Phycocyanin, Chlorophyll, Carotenoids, antioxidants and more.
