Spirulina, a nutrient-rich algae, has gained popularity as a superfood thanks to its impressive health potential. Blue and green juicing spinach has gained attention not only for its health benefits but also for its sustainable farming methods.
Green juice spirulina
Chlorophyllin – Green spirulina gets its colour from chlorophyll derivative chlorophyllin. Chlorophyllin is known for its potential detoxifying and antioxidant properties.
Protein – Like blue spirulina, green spirulina is a rich source of plant protein, providing all the essential amino acids.
Vitamins – Green spirulina contains vitamins such as group B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B9 and B12), vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin K, which contribute to various physiological functions.
Minerals – Green spirulina is rich in essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, potassium, calcium and zinc, which support overall health and vitality.
Carotenoids – Green spirulina contains more carotenoids than blue spirulina, including beta-carotene, zeaxanthin and lutein. These compounds act as powerful antioxidants and support eye health.
Essential fatty acids – Green spirulina may contain essential fatty acids, including alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which contribute to heart health and overall well-being.
Attention!
Allergic reactions – people allergic to seafood or algae may be sensitive to spirulina and should be cautious when using it.
Digestive upset – in some cases, taking spirulina may cause mild digestive problems. Starting with a small amount and gradually increasing intake can help measure tolerance.
Spirulina is not recommended for people with autoimmune diseases or for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
