Spirulina is a microscopic algae that grows in the waters of lakes in Africa, Central America, and South America. It contains up to 60% protein. It is a source of natural iodine, selenium, iron, valuable B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B12), and unsaturated fatty acids, including gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). The proteins it contains consist of no less than 18 amino acids, of which 8 are essential amino acids, meaning amino acids that are not produced by the body and must be supplied through diet. Proteins contribute to the maintenance of muscle mass, recovery, proper blood sugar regulation, and the maintenance of healthy bones. Thanks to its high-quality proteins, spirulina is highly valued in vegan and vegetarian diets.
Iron, of which spirulina is a source, plays a role in the body in transporting oxygen to cells. It also participates in the production of red blood cells and hemoglobin. It also contributes to the proper functioning of the immune system and may help reduce fatigue. It is worth mentioning that the fatty acid derived from this algae is better absorbed than animal-derived fatty acid. This is due to the structure of phycocyanins, which are capable of forming complexes with iron.
Iodine contributes to the maintenance of normal cognitive functions, the functioning of the nervous system, and also helps maintain healthy skin. Iodine also contributes to the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. Selenium contributes to the maintenance of healthy hair and nails, the normal functioning of the immune system, the thyroid gland, and the protection of cells against oxidative stress. Gamma-linolenic acid has a positive influence on blood pressure, has anti-inflammatory effects, positively affects the appearance of hair, skin, and nails, and supports immunity.
Vitamin B6, found in spirulina, contributes to the maintenance of normal energy metabolism and the normal production of red blood cells. It helps reduce feelings of fatigue and helps maintain normal psychological functions. Vitamin B12 contributes to the functioning of the nervous and immune systems. It contributes to the maintenance of normal energy metabolism and the reduction of feelings of fatigue and exhaustion.
