Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima) is a nutrient-dense blue-green microalgae that can be included in diets as a supplement.
It is a good source of plant-based protein and fibre, and is low in calories, so it can be a useful supplement for weight loss or muscle mass gain. It is also suitable for exercise and athletic performance, with a balanced diet adjusted to nutrient requirements, as it provides extra energy and vitality, and supports recovery.
This algae is also rich in essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals and, as it contains no fat or cellulose, is easy to digest. It also contains chlorophyll that provides antioxidant properties and can promote the elimination of heavy metals. When in doubt, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
