Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is certainly atop the green superfoods pantheon. This blue-green vegetable plankton has been a great source of nutrition for humans since the Aztecs harvested it from Lake Texcoco in Mexico many centuries ago. Spirulina just may have been the first photsynthetic life form created by nature over 3.6 billion years ago. Algae such as Spirulina is believed to have produced the oxygen in our atmosphere that allowed the developement of higher life forms, and it still contains the rich nutrient content that supports the diversity of life that we have on Earth today. Spirulina contains the absolute highest protein and beta-carotene levels of all green superfoods, and is also a rich source of GLA (Gamma Linolenic Acid), a very popular fatty acid with numerous health benefits. In addition, it is the absolute highest known vegetable source of B-12 and provides optimum levels of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, cell salts, amino acids and enzymes. NOW® Spirulina is 100% pure, Certified Organic, and cultivated/harvested in Hawaii, where ideal weather conditions allow for year-round growth and outstanding nutritional content.
