Organic and natural spirulina from farm to plate:

We have selected spirulina from France, sourced from French artisans who are members of the French Spirulina Federation, founded in 2009 and whose objective is to bring together and promote organic and natural spirulina while ensuring quality and transparency for the consumer.

They produce without any treatment or additives, spirulina is cultivated without pesticides in a healthy environment and in an artisanal manner to guarantee you a 100% natural product. The production season extends from April to October, because spirulina needs sun and heat to thrive. They cultivate it in shallow ponds under greenhouses.

90% of the spirulina consumed in Europe and Switzerland comes from foreign industrial sites (China, USA, Mongolia, Mexico, etc.), and the remaining 10% comes from spirulina cultivation farms which have been growing steadily for around ten years.

Here are the 4 nutrients it contains in greater quantity than any other plant or animal food known to date on Earth:

Proteins (65% to 92% digestible), containing the 20 amino acids essential for the proper functioning of the human body

• Beta-carotene, (precursor of vitamin A)
• Iron
• Vitamin B12

Protein, beta-carotene, and iron represent the three greatest deficiencies affecting the world's population. The fact that spirulina contains such high concentrations of these nutrients is enough to make it a household name.

Organic and natural spirulina has three pigments that allow it to benefit from a broad light spectrum to carry out the photosynthesis necessary for its development and growth:

• Beta-carotene (pink)
• Chlorophyll (green)
• Phycocyanin (blue), characteristic of this family of cyanobacteria to which spirulina belongs and which is a highly sought-after immune system stimulant.

The chemical composition of spirulina varies depending on the strains, cultivation, drying and packaging conditions.

The data used to create the table below comes from our spirulina, analyzed by independent laboratories.

Note that spirulina is composed of other elements, and this table only lists the main ones.

Nutrients Per 5g of spirulina % recommended daily intake

• Protein 3.3 g
• C-phycocyanin 717 mg
• Crude phycocyanins 1120 mg
• Beta-carotene 7 mg 900%
• Iron 2.5 mg 18%
• Vitamin K 0.016 mg 20.5%
• Vitamin B12 0.45 µg 18%
• Vitamin B1 0.18 mg 16%
• Vitamin B2 0.15 mg 10%
• Manganese 0.11 mg 5.5%
• Phosphorus 34 mg 5%
• Magnesium 9 mg 2.5%

Proteins: Contribute to increasing and maintaining muscle mass, but also to maintaining normal bones.

Phycocyanins: A powerful immune system stimulant that prevents oxidative stress in muscles. It's a particularly colorful protein with beautiful blue pigments. It's the very source of photosynthesis in spirulina, also known as blue-green algae.

Beta-carotene / Vitamin A: Contributes to normal iron metabolism, the maintenance of mucous membranes, the maintenance of normal skin and vision. It also promotes the proper functioning of the immune system and plays a role in the process of cell specialization.

Iron: Contributes to energy metabolism and ensures normal cognitive function. It is necessary for the formation of red blood cells and the synthesis of hemoglobin, which allows for normal oxygen transport in the body. It helps ensure normal functioning of the immune system and helps reduce fatigue.

Vitamin K: Contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of normal bone density.

Vitamin B12: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, and normal homocysteine ​​metabolism. It contributes to normal psychological functions, red blood cell formation, normal immune system function, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It plays a role in the cell division process.

Vitamin B1 or thiamine: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and normal functioning of the nervous system. It contributes to normal psychological functions and normal cardiac function.

In conclusion, we can see that our spirulina is a very rich and very complete food with an exceptional composition, except for vitamin C, iodine and omega 3. These can be provided by citrus fruits (vitamin C) and oily fish (iodine, omega 3).

Spirulina's cell walls are cellulose-free, making it highly digestible, whether raw or dried.

So, who is spirulina good for? For the whole family: young children, teenagers, active people, athletes, seniors, pregnant or breastfeeding women, vegetarians, etc.

For those who like the virtues of spirulina, but not necessarily its taste or who really want to dose spirulina for a cure or sports training, there are tablets (cold-ground and air-compressed spirulina powder without any additives) which are dosed at 500 mg.

In this form, you only need to consume the equivalent of 3 g, or six tablets per day, with a glass of water or fruit juice, preferably in the morning or at midday.

As mentioned above, spirulina is a food that stimulates circulation and intestinal transit. If you have never eaten it before, it is recommended to start gradually to avoid possible bloating (this happens to one in ten people, lasts only two days in any case, and is normal).

Then start with two tablets on the first day and gradually increase to six tablets per day.

Spirulina tablets should be stored in their sachet, away from light and humidity.

THEfood supplementsare not a substitute for a varied diet. It is not recommended to exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of reach of young children.
