Spirulina consists of one or more members of a family of blue-green algae. The spiral shapes in which these plants array themselves as they grow inspired the name. Spirulina grows in the wild in salty lakes in Mexico and on the African continent. It reproduces quickly, and because the individual plants tend to stick together, it is easy to harvest. Records of the Spanish conquistadores suggest that the Aztecs used spirulina as a food source; it is also well known that the Kanembu people of Central Africa harvested it from what is now called Lake Chad. This plant contains high levels of various B vitamins, beta-carotene, other carotenoids, and minerals, including calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and zinc. It is also a source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA). Spirulina is a rich source of protein. In fact, dried spirulina contains up to 70% protein by weight. It also contains vitamin B 12, a nutrient otherwise found almost exclusively in animal foods. |
