Dragon Superfoods organic spirulina powder is dried through a natural process that preserves its nutrients, then ground into powder. It is cultivated in filtered and natural waters, under strict control. Spirulina (Arthrospira pfatensis) is a blue-green unicellular alga, which gets its name from its spiral cell structure. Spirulina has a rich, slightly bluish dark green color due to its chlorophyll content and a specific and characteristic taste and aroma.

With a protein content of 65%, spirulina powder is the food with the highest protein content. Spirulina protein contains all 8 essential amino acids, making it the most complete protein available.

Spirulina was discovered by researchers studying an African tribe. The tribe was very poor and had limited access to fruits, vegetables, and meat. However, they remained healthy due to regularly consuming a dark-colored alga that grew nearby. This alga, now known as Spirulina, was taken from the lake and dried for the tribe to consume. This helped people consume protein and other nutrients, despite their poor diet and limited resources.

Since spirulina powder contains a high concentration of nutrients, it can be said that a small serving of spirulina has the antioxidant power of 5 servings of fruits and vegetables. It has a greater amount of antioxidants and phytochemicals than blueberries and spinach combined. The algae are mainly obtained from lakes, rivers, and swamps. After collection, they are naturally dried. Drying allows for the preservation of nutrients, which can be reduced under the influence of high temperatures.

It is easy to consume – it can be added to smoothies, drinks, yogurt, oatmeal, etc. It has a specific smell due to the high concentration of chlorophyll, which, however, can be easily mellowed with honey, citrus, or bananas. The powder form allows it to be mixed into various glazes, doughs, etc. Spirulina contains 23 times more iron than spinach, more protein than any other food, and 3 times more calcium than milk.

Spirulina powder should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Consult a doctor before taking spirulina powder if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or undergoing medical treatment. The product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
