Micro algae are aquatic living organisms found on the surface of lakes and seas. These plants are very small and are measured in microns (millionths of a meter).

Beef protein, for example is only 20% digestible where as Spirulina protein is 95% digestible. In this way, a person can eat less, yet the body's protein cravings will be satisfied.

Spirulina can even reverse aging. It is rich in gamma linolenic acid (GLA) and nucleic acid (RNA/DNA). Nucleic acids are the building blocks of cells, and GLA assists in cellular renewal. The amount of nucleic acid in the body directly affects the rate of regenerating of cells. The amount of nucleic acid in the body also decreases with age. Other contributing factors to nucleic acid loss are a lack of exercise, poor diet and stress. It is therefore vital to the health of the body to replenish these stores.
An important aspect of Spirulina is the blue pigment, phycocyanin. This blue pigment is very rare in foods. It has shown to inhibit the formation of cancerous cells. In this way it helps to stop the spread of cancer in the body.
