| Spirulina algpulver |
Man vet att man är nördig när en påse personligt importerad Spirulina är bland det finaste man kan få! (Jaja, jag är inte helt utan självinsikt - tydliga nördtecken har funnits där redan tidigare...) En kompis som nyligen kom hem från en resa i Indien hade med sig guldklimpen på bilden ovan, och jag fick den i present!!! Vilken lycka!
I den medföljande broschyren kunde man bl.a. läsa följande intressanta fakta om Spirulina:
Spirulina - The World's Healthiest Food Supplement
Spirulina is a tiny blue-green algae and grows naturally in mineral-rich alkaline lakes which can be found on every continent, often near volcanos. The largest concentrations of Spirulina today can be found at Lake Texcoco in Mexico, around Lake Chad in Central Africa and along the Great Rift Valley in East Africa.
Spirulina is called a super food because its nutrient content is more potent than any other food. Many of the essential nutrients needed by our bodies are concentrated in Spirulina. It is comprised of at least 60% all-vegetable protein, essential vitamins and phytonutrients such as the rare essential fatty acid GLA, sulfolipids, glycolipids and polysaccharides.
Spirulina is a low-fat, low-calorie, cholesterol free source of easily-digestable vegetable protein containing all the essential amino acids that cannot be produced by the body but are needed to synthesize the non-essential amino acids. Spirulina has no cellulose in its cell walls and is therefore easily digested and assimilated.
Data from long-time consumption and scientific evidence both suggest that 1-5 g a day result in significant health benefits. Take Spirulina every day for best results. Regular intake of Spirulina increases anti-viral activity, stimulates the immune system, reduces kidney toxicity, improves wound healing and reduces radiation sickness.
Spirulina is a perfectly safe natural food which provides quick energy and nourishment. Spirulina powder can be added to fruit or vegetable juices or dishes to enhance nutritional content. It is tasty in soups, salads, pasta and breads or mixed with yoghurt. However, do not cook Spirulina as this affects its nutritional value.
Fantastiskt, eller hur? Nu är det bara att göra slag i saken och införliva en dos Spirulina i den dagliga rutinen!
- Ta saften från en citron och blanda med en tesked Spirulina pulver, rör om och drick direkt. Citronens C vitamin (Spirulina innehåller inte C vitamin) hjälper kroppen att absorbera näringsämnen som t.ex järnet. (tips från broschyren)
