The importance of organic organic spirulina powder as a resource of balanced proteins, vitamins and minerals, which is beneficial to human health and has health care effects, has gained international consensus. It has been used in many countries as baby food, health food for the elderly and nutritional supplements for the human body. With the deepening of research work, a large number of scientific studies have proved that organic spirulina powder has a variety of biologically active substances, which can play a good role in helping human health, mainly in the following aspects:

(1) Enhancement of vitality

Protein is the important material basis of human life activities, insufficient intake, the human body will lose vitality. Spirulina is rich in high-quality plant proteins that can be easily absorbed by the human body, especially the content of 8 kinds of essential amino acids that cannot be synthesised by the human body itself is almost the same as the ideal standard designed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), which can promote the formation of body proteins, and it is the most ideal food for enhancing vitality.

(2) Improvement of physical condition

Tests have shown that body fluids are acidic when the human body is sick, fatigued or weak. To change the acidic body fluid, the most fundamental way is to eat more alkaline food. Spirulina is rich in a variety of alkaline minerals, which can effectively neutralise the unhealthy acidic body fluids, fundamentally improve the body, improve the body’s anti-fatigue ability, and coordinate the body’s regeneration and immune system.

(3) Blood replenishment and hematopoietic

Spirulina contains a large number of heavy raw materials for the synthesis of haemoglobin – iron, and with protein, folic acid, vitamins and other comprehensive nutrition, which is conducive to iron absorption. In addition, rich chlorophyll and vitamin B12 are also the main ingredients to promote the formation of haemoglobin. Moderate supplementation of spirulina can promote haematopoietic function and help to increase the oxygen content in the blood to avoid general weakness, dizziness and headache.

(4) Resistance to radiation

Spirulina contains a special photosynthetic pigment protein – phycocyanin, which can improve the human body’s ability to resist radiation and avoid radiation damage caused by TV sets, microwave ovens, computers, mobile phones and other items.

(5) Organic Spirulina and diabetes

Diabetes is a typical ‘rich disease’, the reason why spirulina can produce significant effect on diabetes, because it is an ideal high protein low calorie food. Because spirulina contains high amount of chlorophyll (1.33% is magnesium compounds), rich in plant protein (60-70%), contains vitamin B1 to improve sugar metabolism, prevent fat oxidation of vitamin B2 and can promote insulin synthesis of vitamin B6, contains a high amount of insulin secretion, and pyruvic acid in order to prevent pyruvic acid poisoning of potassium ( 1.5%), coupled with a high amount of potassium ( 1.5%). 1.5%), plus pantothenic acid and zinc (which can promote the production of natural insulin), so spirulina is the ideal nutritional food for the prevention and alleviation of diabetes. Nowadays, doctors in the United States and many countries in Western Europe have listed Spirulina as an experimental drug for diabetes and a regular supplementary food.

(6) Organic Spirulina and Acidic Physique

Spirulina’s original habitat is a very alkaline lake, the development of modern science and technology has made Spirulina become a high-grade, food-grade product cultivated and produced in modern factories. Spirulina is rich in active potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and other alkaline minerals, so consuming it can neutralise and regulate the acidic constitution of the human body.
According to the research of pathophysiologists, all the people who are prone to illness, more than 90% of people’s body fluids are acidic, so that neutral body fluids or body fluids to maintain a weakly alkaline (PH value of 7.35-7.45) of people in better health. The cause of acidic body fluids is mainly due to irrational dietary structure and excessive fatigue. Usually we ingest food, acidic components of the source of more, such as meat, eggs, fish, oil, refined rice, white flour and other foods are acidic food, these foods are metabolised by the product of the body’s acidic components of the main source. Relatively speaking, the human body intake of alkaline components of the source is less, resulting in a lack of minerals in the body, if the sodium, potassium and magnesium and other elements are insufficient, it is easy to evolve into acidic body fluids. Therefore, in order to maintain alkaline body fluids, the body must consume more minerals.
If the intake of minerals is too high or the deficiency is supplemented by taking non-bio-complexed minerals, the kidney function will often be overburdened. Spirulina, which is grown in alkaline medium, is a natural food rich in balanced and biologically active organically complexed minerals. Therefore, after consuming spirulina, not only can its alkaline ions neutralise the acid produced by eating excessive meat, sugar, etc., but also it will not produce any side effects on human cells and tissues and organs, which is of great help in maintaining the acid-base balance in the body and keeping the body healthy.

(7) Organic Spirulina and anaemia

Spirulina is rich in iron, vitamin B12 and chlorophyll, of which iron is an important raw material for the synthesis of haemoglobin and an indispensable element for many iron-containing enzymes, and when the organism lacks of it, it will cause iron-deficiency anaemia and low body mass, and in Spirulina, the amount of iron content is up to 100-160mg/100g (see Table 7). Vitamin B12 is an important coenzyme and catalyst in the synthesis of haemoglobin, if the body lacks the coenzyme vitamin B12, it will lead to megaloblastic anaemia. Chlorophyll structure is almost the same as haemoglobin, only the central atom is different (the central atom of chlorophyll for magnesium, haemoglobin central atom for iron), in addition to haemoglobin synthesis to provide raw materials, but also to stimulate the haematopoietic organs to make haematopoietic function to strengthen. According to the relevant experiments, spirulina can significantly improve the iron content in the tissue of rats with iron deficiency anaemia, iron utilization rate is similar to the standard ferrous sulphate, and its efficacy is not generally synthetic iron comparable. Relevant experts also through the haemoglobin depletion and then replenishment method, the study of spirulina in the utilization of iron, the results found that spirulina on the regeneration efficiency of haemoglobin and egg similar. In addition, it is also reported in the literature that polysaccharide substances in Spirulina can enhance the proliferation of mouse bone marrow cells and promote bone marrow haematopoietic function.
As Spirulina is rich in high-quality protein, vitamins, chlorophyll and minerals, it is said that consuming Spirulina is not simply supplementing iron to promote haematopoietic function, but supplementing a reasonable proportion of various nutrients. Coupled with the fact that spirulina itself is a natural nutritious food without any side effects, it is of great significance if organic spirulina powder can be used as a food to prevent iron deficiency anaemia.

(8) Organic Spirulina and hypertension

Regular consumption of spirulina is very beneficial to lowering blood pressure in the elderly. Although Spirulina does not contain choline, biochemistry shows that choline can be synthesised in the body, serine can produce choline with the assistance of vitamin B6, in addition methionine can also be converted into choline. Spirulina contains 3.25% serine and 1.95% methionine. Choline acts on the body and can lower blood pressure. Spirulina rich in unsaturated fatty acids, especially γ-linolenic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, arachidonic acid, etc., can also reduce blood lipids to reduce vascular atherosclerosis, so spirulina in lowering blood lipids and lowering blood pressure has a very good effect. In addition, hypertensive patients such as potassium deficiency, will make the glomeruli suffer, resulting in deterioration of the condition, spirulina contains potassium is about ten times the amount of vegetables, so the consumption of spirulina has a significant role in replenishment of potassium and kidney health.

(9) Organic Spirulina and stomach disease

organic spirulina  itself grows in an alkaline environment, containing the richest potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and other alkaline elements, is the best alkaline food, both. After consuming spirulina, spirulina can be rapidly decomposed into fine particles, clinging to the mucous membrane of stomach and duodenum, neutralising gastric acid and solving the problem of nutritional nourishment of stomach to form a layer of protective film, which promotes the regeneration of gastric mucous membrane, repairs the mucous membrane of intestines and stomach which has been damaged, regulates the excessive gastric acid, and makes the stomach feel more comfortable. Long-term consumption can make the surface of the stomach and intestines smooth, elastic and rejuvenated. A large number of clinical trials at home and abroad have shown that consumption of spirulina is effective in the treatment of gastric diseases. A Japanese hospital has a gastric ulcer and gastritis patients for spirulina treatment test, let the patient to eat 4 grams of spirulina every day, three weeks later, most of the patients have a great degree of stomach pain and burning sensation is reduced. It can be said that organic spirulina powder is a very ideal food for gastrointestinal patients.
