It is also like drinking a multi-vitamin! Spirulina is incredibly high in B-12 more than 3-4 times higher than that found in liver.
It contains a wide range of minerals:
- IRON
- POTASSIUM
- MAGNESIUM SODIUM
- PHOSPHORUS and more!
- It has a high volume of Beta-Carotene to protect your cells, 5 x's more than carrots and 40 x's more than spinach!
It is stated consumption of Spirulina leads to optimal health and in a current environment full of pollution and toxins, Spirulina is more than recommended some state it is required!
I have you to thank for the discovery of Spirulina as I found it through this blog. Blogging has led to the discovery of so many healthy new vegetables, fruits, herbs, tinctures, elixirs, supplements and more! I love learning more and am thrilled to share what I learn with you! It's hard to believe it's been over 2 years since I started blogging and over 1 year since I released my first cookbook! I'm currently working on a brand new cookbook with BRIGHT vibrant plant based recipes that I can't wait to release to you!
