Spirulina

Arthrospira platensis | Complete Plant Protein · Energy · Antioxidant · Nutrient-Dense Superfood

Tastes like: bold, earthy, and ocean-forward, like seaweed. Best blended into a fruit smoothie or juice, where pineapple, banana, or mango balance it out.

Near Lake Chad, the Kanembu people have harvested a vivid blue-green algae called "dihe" as an everyday food for generations. Thousands of miles away, Aztec chroniclers documented the same algae being harvested from Lake Texcoco. Two cultures, worlds apart, both landed on spirulina.

Spirulina's signature blue pigment-protein, phycocyanin, has been studied for its antioxidant activity.* Researchers have also explored spirulina's relationship to cholesterol and blood pressure levels already within normal range, alongside its naturally complete amino acid profile.*
