Spirulina is a type of blue-green micro-algae grown and harvestedfrom very alkaline water sources. Nutrition Stripped nutrient breakdown: *.Protein | 50-70% by weight of bioavailable, easy to digest protein- per 100g contains 57g of protein (!!!) *.In comparison to lets say 100g of chicken, which contains 16g of protein OR natures “golden protein” an egg, which contains 13g of protein per 100g. *.Amino acids | contains all amino acids, including essential amino acids => completeprotein *.Healthy fats | mostly in the form of polyunsaturated fatty acids. *.Omega-3 fatty acids | linolenic acid, 0.8g/100g *.Omega-6 fatty acids | linoleic acid, GLA 1.2g/100g *. Vitamin B12|SpecialNote:the form of B12found in spirulina is a psuedovitaminB12, therefore is not a reliable sourceof B12 for humans as it’s inactive. The B12 is considered an analogue, which does not have the same bioavailabilityas animal sources of B12. *.Vitamin A, D, K, E *.Vitamin B | B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), folic acid, B5 *.Antioxidants | carotenoids } beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, cryptoxanthin *. Chlorophyll *.Copper | 6/1mg/100g *. Iron| 28mg/100g *.Magnesium | 195mg/100g *.Potassium | 1.3g/100g *.Manganese | 1.9mg/100g *.Zinc | 2mg/100g
