Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) rests atop the green superfood pantheon.
This blue-green vegetable plankton has been a source of nutrition for humans
since the Aztecs harvested it centuries ago. Spirulina very well may have been
the first photosynthetic life form created, and it still contains the rich
nutrient content that supports the diversity of life we have on Earth today.
Spirulina contains the highest protein and beta-carotene levels of all green
superfoods, and is also a rich source of GLA (Gamma Linolenic Acid), a popular
fatty acid with numerous health benefits. In addition, it is the highest known
vegetable source of B-12 and provides optimum levels of vitamins, minerals,
trace elements, cell salts, amino acids and enzymes.
Suggested Use:Take one level tablespoon one or more times daily,
mixed in water, fruit or vegetable juice.
