Food supplement containing dried algae powder Spirulina. A rich source of protein, vitamin B, copper, and Iron.
Description
Spirulina is a nutritional supplement with a wide range of activities. It has a high content of easily absorbed protein, vitamins, minerals,s and other substances necessary for the human body, which makes it a great food for the 21st century. It is thanks to this unique nutritional value that spirulina enriches the diet of astronauts on space expeditions. Spirulina first appeared on Earth about 3.5 billion years ago; it is one of the oldest forms of life on Earth. It lives naturally in shallow ponds and lakes with high pH and high salt content in Africa, Asia, and South America.
The biomass of these green-blue cyanobacteria has long been part of the diet of the Aztecs and African tribes living around Lake Chad. For modern Western people, Spirulina was discovered in 1940 and has been intensively studied by various researchers since the mid-1960s. That is why we know its composition, high nutritional value,ue and benefits for human health so well.
Spirulina is very rich in protein-the protein content in dry matter is about 70 %. It is a source of vitamins such as e.g. A (the vitamin is mainly present in the form of the precursor -carotene 700-1700 mg/kg), B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, D, E, K, but it is also a source of magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, copper, chromium, manganese, selenium, sodium as well as zinc. Iron from spirulina is also worthy of special attention. It is assimilated twice as much as from animal products. This is due to the porphyrin structure of the phycocyanin contained in the algae's cells, which is capable of forming complexes with iron.
Moreover, exceptional properties of spirulina have been appreciated in the field of cosmetology, but also in biotechnology, e. g. in the production of dietary supplements.
