Detailed Product Description

Spirulina is single-celled blue-green algae that grows in warm, alkaline fresh 
waters around the world, which being developed as the "food of the future" 
because of its amazing ability to synthesize high quality concentrated food 
more efficiently than any other algae.  

Spirulina is 65% to 71% all-vegetable protein, with all essential amino acids 
in perfect balance. In comparison, beef is only 22% protein. It is also rich in 
beta-carotene, iron, vitamin B12 and the rare essential fatty acid, GLA. In 
fact, Spirulina is one of the cleanest, most naturally sterile foods found in 
nature. The name "spirulina" is derived from the Latin word for "helix" or 
"spiral"; denoting the physical configuration of the organism when it forms 
swirling, microscopic strands.

Spirulina has a photosynthetic conversion rate of 8% to 10%, compared to 
only 3% in such land-growing plants as soybeans. 

Its adaptation to heat also assures that Spirulina retains its nutritional value
when subject to high temperatures during processing and shelf storage, unlike
many plant foods that rapidly deteriorate at high temperatures. 

Spirulina is also unusual among algae because it is a "nuclear plant" meaning 
it is on the developmental cusp between plants and animals. It is considered somewhat above plants because it does not have the hard cellulose 
membranes characteristic of plant cells, nor does it have a well-defined 
nucleus. Yet its metabolic system is based on photosynthesis, a process of 
direct food energy production utilizing sunlight and chlorophyll, which is typical
of plant life forms.
