What are Organic Spirulina Powder?

Organic Spirulina Powder is derived from Arthrospira platensis cultivated in controlled organic freshwater systems. Through low-temperature spray-drying (<40°C), this nutrient-dense powder retains ≥60% complete protein (all 9 EAAs), ≥15% phycocyanin, and ≥80mg/g iron. Non-GMO, gluten-free, and rich in antioxidants for functional foods, supplements, and sustainable nutrition.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Nutritional Superiority

Iron Bioavailability: 12x higher absorption vs. spinach (vitamin C synergy)
Vitamin B12: Bioactive form (adenosylcobalamin) for vegans
Antioxidant Power: Phycocyanin scavenges free radicals 4x better than vitamin C

2. Health Applications

Immune Defense:
- ↑ Macrophage phagocytosis
- Modulates Th1/Th2 balance
Energy & Metabolism:
