With its comprehensive, balanced nutritional composition and high disease prevention and health care value, spirulina has attracted great attention and high evaluation by many scientists and international organizations around the world. Nutritionists and medical scientists call it "the nutrition champion on Earth" and "new star of medicine source". The World Health Organization regards spirulina as "the best health product of the 21st century" and "super nutritious food of the future"; UNESCO recommends spirulina as "the most ideal and perfect food of the future", and FAO solemnly recommends that "spirulina is the best food resource and future food of the future".
The nutritional value of spirulina is considered by modern science as a "micro nutrition library", with eight essential amino acids levels close to or exceeding the standards of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The ratio of protein, sugar and fat is about 60:20:5, and the nutrition is well balanced. In addition, it also contains a variety of vitamins and trace elements, including beta-carotene content of 4,000 mg per kilogram, vitamin content as high as 1,320 mg per kilogram. Eating 15 g of dry weight spirulina per person per day ensures essential sources of nutrients. Spirulina is praised as "the most ideal and the best human food" by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization for its highest nutrition and high safety.
Safety assessments conducted by the American Board of Dietary Supplements show that spirulina is safe and without toxic side effects. Spirulina is widely used as a health care product around the world, and is recommended by the United States and the European Space Agency as one of the main food items for long-term space mission personnel. Spirulina has been found to have multiple pharmacological effects. Such as lowering blood lipid, antioxidant, anti-infection, anti-cancer, etc.
A variety of foods have been developed using spirulina, all of which are made by adding spirulina dry powder or extract raw materials to conventional foods or beverages, such as soy sauce, yogurt, jelly, beverages and noodles.
The fatty acid content in spirulina is low, of which the unsaturated fatty acids that are very beneficial to the human body account for a large proportion. Spirulina is rich in a variety of bioactive components, such as beta-carotene, phycobiliprotein, gamma-linolenic acid and endogenous enzymes, which are very beneficial to human health.
Spirulina has been widely used in animal feed as a feed additive because it is rich in protein and amino acids and is rich in various trace elements.
The study found that compared with other biological hydrogen-producing materials, spirulina has the characteristics of high photosynthesis efficiency, fast growth and reproduction, high hydrogenase activity, and continuous hydrogen release time. It is one of the ideal materials for the study of biological hydrogen release.
Spirulina needs to absorb and consume nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in the water environment and degrade organic matter in the water during the growth and reproduction process, and has the characteristics of fast growth and reproduction, high light efficiency and strong adaptability. Using wastewater to cultivate spirulina, on the one hand, can purify the water body and reduce the degree of eutrophication of the water body; on the other hand, it can also obtain high value-added spirulina products.
