spirulina what is it for? This now famous algae is truly the product of the moment. It is, in reality, a cyanobacterium, a small, ancient and resistant microorganism, capable of growing even in difficult climatic conditions.
So much so that spirulina is considered one of the foods of the future, which will be able to save humanity from hunger and nutritional deficiencies: cultivation tests are already underway in extreme conditions, from the desert to space!
But why is it good for our body?
Its characteristic bluish-green color is due to the high content of chlorophyll.
Drying at low temperatures preserves all its organoleptic characteristics unaltered and keeps phycocyanin levels high. phycocyanin, according to studies, has a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action.
Spirulina also has a high protein and iron content, which contributes to normal cognitive and immune system function. The folic acid content is also high, which contributes to normal hematopoiesis and homocysteine metabolism. It also contains a high content ofphosphorus and Vitamin K, which contributes to normal blood clotting and the maintenance of healthy bones.
Natural Bio organic spirulina is available in two formats, powder e compressed.
There is no difference in the health benefits but it is more a question of convenience: the flavor of this vegetal and vaguely marine algae may not appeal to everyone, which is why the tablets are an ideal solution for taking the right amount simply with a sip of water.
On the contrary, if you love its “umami” notes, you can use it in many recipes. It is truly versatile in the kitchen, thanks to the solubility of this dark green powder, which dissolves very well in drinks, smoothies, juicers and yogurt, but not only.
You can also think of using it in many preparations, both sweet and savory: cake and biscuit dough, homemade bread, pizza and focaccia. Everything will take on the characteristic green-blue color note, for a result that will leave guests speechless!
