Growing naturally in tropical climates Spirulina is cyanobacterium (blue-green algae) and has been used as food for hundreds of years, some of the earliest known cultivators were the Aztec's, Mesoamericans grew spirulina in Lake Texcoco. It is also known to have been cultivated by ancient civilisations in Chad as well as throughout Asia.

As well as being a concentrated source of protein spirulina also contains the minerals calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus and zinc in significant quantities, and the vitamins A, C, E and vitamin K making it an excellent all-around nutrition supplement.
Spirulina is a rich source of B-complex vitamins, especially thiamin and riboflavin which play a major role in helping the body to convert food efficiently into fuel and promoting healthy skin and cognitive functionality.
B-complex vitamins keep the body healthy by fighting free radicals; free radicals are mutated cells which left can develop into more serious illnesses.

As with all protein-rich foods, spirulina contains the essential amino acid phenylalanine, this should be avoided by people who are known to have phenylketonuria, this is a rare genetic disorder and Spirulina should be avoided by those who carry it.
