What is Spirulina?
Spirulina is a microscopic algae, produced commercially and sold as a food supplement around the world. Since its rediscovery in the 1960's, Spirulina has been extensively tested by scientists around the world. When taken daily it has been found to strengthens the body's defence mechanism. It is the richest source of vegetable protein. Spirulina is one of the most natural, clean foods that can be found in nature. Spirulina is the highest source of natural Beta Carotene, Vitamin D and GLA (Gamma Linolenic Acid). Spirulina contains all nine essential Amino Acids. It is extremely high in natural protein, much higher than beef.. It is the ideal food supplement for weight loss diet. For over 30 years spirulina has been the premier choice for supplementing a vegetarian diet. Spirulina powder provides the body with all the essential nutrients required daily, leaving you fresh, active and energetic through out the day.
Spirulina powder may produce anticancer effects due to its antioxidant and immune enhancing properties. Another way that spirulina may help to fight cancer is by promoting the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha, a chemical in the body that attacks tumor cells.
Benefit Of Spirulina
Spirulina helps the body to detox in a natural way and eventually will rid the body of toxic poisons. It helps the body with mineral absorption and helps reduce cholesterol. Apparently spirulina has the ability to stimulate the immune system which could be beneficial in some individuals, and potentially harmful in those who already have an overactive immune system or an autoimmune condition. Therefore, spirulina is not advised to be taken regularly for those who have lupus, autoimmune thyroiditis, pemphigus vulgaris, and other such conditions.
Spirulina powder balances RNA/DNA, it helps the brain function and gives better mental clarity. Energy is noticed in a few short days as well as a keen alertness. Spirulina is a complete protein, contains the complete Complex vitamins and the essential Trace Minerals and Fatty Acids.
Iron is essential to build a strong system, yet is the most common mineral deficiency. Spirulina is rich in iron, magnesium and trace minerals, and is easier to absorb than iron supplements. Spirulina or its extracts can prevent or inhibit cancers in humans and animals. Some common forms of cancer are thought to be a result of damaged cell DNA running amok, causing uncontrolled cell growth. Cellular biologists have defined a system of special enzymes called endonuclease which repair damaged DNA to keep cells alive and health. When these enzymes are deactivated by radiation or toxins, errors in DNA go un repaired, and cancer may develop.
Due to its high nutritional content, the benefits of Spirulina are many and varied:
- Spirulina stimulates immune system to destroy invading disease organisms and carcinogens.
- Spirulina potentiates the immune system with its anti-tumor, anti-viral and interferon inducing effects.
- Spirulina helps to sanitize the bowel by detoxifying the colon and promoting the growth of friendly bacteria.
- Spirulina promotes tissue repair in wounds and burns and has anti-infectious properties.
- Spirulina decreases cholesterol levels and helps to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Spirulina works as an anti-inflammatory, helping to reduce the inflammation characteristic of arthritis.
- Spirulina provides superior nutritional support as one of nature's whole foods for anyone who is weakened by disease, alcohol or drug abuse.
- Spirulina helps to balance RNA/DNA.

Top-level comments on this article: (2 total)Yes. Thank you. I purchased some Hawaiian Spirulina approx. 2 years ago. Is the Algae, etc., still active? How can one tell? I have started ingesting it and am curious about the aforementioned. Thanks again, LindaI would say throw it out. The bottle should have an expiration date on it that you could refer to if the bottle is unopened; once the bottle of spirulina is opened it should be kept refrigerated. If the bottle has been sitting opened in a medicine cabinet for the past 2 years, you should probably toss it and buy some more.
