SPIRULINA / SPIRULINA
Food supplement, 250 g, powder
Spirulina (Spirulina powder), 250 g, is a food supplement of the German company El Compra. The product contains 100% natural spirulina extract (Spirulina platensis) originating in Burma. Spirulina is a microalgae with a high content of vitamins A, E, proteins and beta-carotene, which promote cell renewal and act as antioxidants. Spirulina offers numerous health benefits, from boosting metabolism to stabilizing blood sugar levels and preventing the development of cardiovascular disease. The nutritional supplement supplies the body with vital nutrients and can help detoxify the body, improve energy balance and even stimulate brain activity .
Spirulina is a blue-green microalgae found in highly alkaline salt lakes (pH between 9 and 11). It inhabits shallow subtropical waters with high salinity, mainly in Central America, Africa and Australia. The quality of the so-called Burmese spirulina is unique worldwide. The nutritional supplement of El Compra is produced from ecologically clean raw materials, which guarantees the high content of nutrients.
There are two types of algae under the common name spirulina: Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima. They are cultivated all over the world and are used both as food and as a dietary supplement, which is available in tablet, flake and powder form.
Blue-green algae have a huge protein content (min. 50% - max. 65%) in the form of (non)essential amino acids. The main active ingredients in the food supplement are minerals, trace elements, carbohydrates, vitamins, enzymes and others. Spirulina contains vitamins (e.g. B 12 , vitamin C, vitamin E), beta-carotene as provitamin A, iron, minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, trace elements such as chromium, copper, zinc, fatty acids such as omega-3, omega- 6 and others.
Research shows that spirulina has antioxidant, pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory and brain-protective properties. The rich content of antioxidants in spirulina has anti-inflammatory effects on the body.
Advantages:
- Powerful antioxidant;
- High in protein and other nutrients;
- It can reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases;

Health benefits :
Spirulina is rich in antioxidant compounds, among which is phycocyanin. This is a chemical compound that gives the microalgae its blue-green color. In addition, studies have shown that phycocyanin has anti-inflammatory properties, protects the body from oxidative stress and has neuroprotective properties.
- It can lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels
Spirulina has the ability to lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Rich in compounds that have antioxidant properties, spirulina also helps lower cholesterol levels. It also appears to improve total cholesterol management by lowering so-called "bad" low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and raising "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL).

It may have protective properties regarding the development of various types of carcinomas
Studies show that spirulina supplements work as a cancer preventative. Its mechanism of action is through the activation of immune cells, which provide protection against tumors and inhibit the growth and development of cancer cells.
Spirulina reduces airway inflammation, which is a classic symptom of allergic rhinitis or hay fever. The supplement significantly improves symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion and itching.
A number of studies have shown that spirulina increases the production of antibodies - proteins that fight infections. Microalgae stimulates the production of cells that improve immunity and help protect the body from the development of infections and chronic diseases.
Spirulina contains a high concentration of zeaxanthin, an important nutrient related to eye health. The supplement may help reduce the risk of developing cataracts and age-related macular degeneration.
