Spirulina is a combination of various nutrients necessary for human body, mainly including six kinds of nutritional elements: plant protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, fats, minerals and trace elements. It is a miracle in nature because of its rich ingredients and coordinated proportions.
Among them, protein, β-carotene, chlorophyll a, phycocyanin and γ -linolenic acid are important.
Spirulina is a primitive algae that grows in natural alkaline lakes. It has a history of 3.5 billion years and is one of the oldest organisms on the earth. They absorb and dissolve carbon dioxide in the air, and release a lot of oxygen through photosynthesis.
Spirulina is suitable for growing in alkaline waters with water temperature of 30-35℃ and high mineral concentration (pH value of 9-11). It is named for its spiral shape.
Spirulina platensis is very tiny, with a length of 0.3—0.5mm and a width of 0.005—0.008mm It can hardly be seen by naked eyes, and can only be observed under a microscope. It is named after Spirulina because of its spiral shape.

Lowering cholesterol. Lowering cholesterol can effectively prevent the onset of heart disease and stroke. Y-linolenic acid in spirulina can reduce cholesterol contained in human body, which can effectively reduce hypertension and prevent heart disease.
