Spirulina

The blue-green algae spirulina has been acclaimed as one of the world’s greatest superfoods and it is as old as fossils… 3.5 billion years old. A nutritious and nutrient-dense food, spirulina is 60% protein, contains 18 amino acids, as well as phytonutrients, copper, iron, manganese, potassium, B vitamins, iodine, and the list goes on. Spirulina is a powerful detoxifier that removes heavy metals from the body. It also boosts the immune system and triggers the production of infection-fighting cytokines. Plus, it reduces bad cholesterol and its anti-inflammatory properties fight free radicals and oxidative damage. When it comes to skin health, spirulina facilitates faster cell turnover, meaning it helps eliminate skin toxins and brightens the skin for a more glowing complexion.
