About

Spirulina is a blue-green algae which is a powerhouse of nutrients, and is used as a nutritional supplement around the world.
Spirulina contains beta carotene and is 60%% protein without the fat that you commonly get from meat. It is also known to prevent or inhibit cancer, strengthen the immune system, and fight against viruses.
The only drawback is that it is rather expensive and has a mossy flavor.
