Chi Spirulina 500mg tablets organic What is spirulina?
Spirulina is a blue-green spiral-shaped algae. Algae are microscopic plants that have been at the base of the food chain for millions of years. Spirulina is an ancient saltwater algae known to the Aztecs, Toltecs, and several indigenous peoples in Africa, such as the Kanembu in Chad. Many terms have been used to describe spirulina: "green gold" and even "beauty food." Spirulina has a dark blue-green color thanks to a brilliant blue polypeptide called phycocyanin. Phycocyanin is one of the phytonutrients in spirulina. The green color comes from chlorophyll.

Is spirulina being used as astronaut food? The European Space Agency has been researching biological solutions for over 25 years to create a closed ecosystem within a spacecraft using bacteria, algae, and plants, without the products taking up too much space. One of these experiments revealed that spirulina offers potential. Spirulina contains many micronutrients and is over 60 percent protein. Therefore, it is a good nutritional supplement to supplement astronauts' daily diets.
