Spirulina Facts
Several years ago, the National Cancer Institute announced sulfolipids from
blue-green algae like spirulina were remarkably active in test tube experiments
against the AIDS virus.
In 1993-95, research showed natural polysaccharides in spirulina increased
T-cell counts, strengthened the immune system and raised disease resistance in
chickens, fish and mice. The animal feed industry is embracing spirulina as a
new probiotic to replace overused antiobiotic drugs in animal feeds. In 1994, a
Russian patent was awarded for spirulina as a medicine for reducing allergic
reactions from radiation in the Children of Chernobyl.
the rare essential fatty acid GLA, sulfolipids, glycolipids and
polysaccharides.
Its deep green color comes from its rainbow of natural pigments - chlorophyll
(green), phycocyanin (blue) and carotenoids (orange) - that harvest the sun's
energy. Easy-to-digest so nutrients are absorbed quickly.
