A Product from Soul-Centric Organic Farm

A natural rich source of antioxidants like superoxide dismutase. Soul Centric Organic Spirulina is not only rich in its nutrient profile, but is also absolutely safe for consumption.

Certified Organic Spirulina Powder from Soul Centric is a rich source of antioxidants. Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae that is rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, and Carotenoids, antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage. It contains nutrients, including B complex vitamins, betacarotene, vitamin E, manganese, zinc, copper, iron, selenium, and gamma Linolenic acid (an essential fatty acid).

Spirulina -- like any blue-green algae -- can be contaminated with toxic substances called microcystins. It can also absorb heavy metals from the water where it is grown. For these reasons, it is important to buy spirulina from a trusted brand.

Test tube and animal studies suggest spirulina may boost the immune system, help protect against allergic reactions, and have antiviral and anticancer properties. However, there is no proof that spirulina has these, or any, benefits in people. More research is needed.

What is Spirulina?
Spirulina is a microscopic plant without leaves, seeds, or flowers, growing by the hundreds in a single drop of water. This spiral shaped fresh-water plant derives its energy from the sun. Scientists classify it as one kind of blue-green algae. Spirulina has been eaten by humans since prehistory and is now cultivated worldwide as a healthy food.

Does Spirulina protect from oxidative stress? 
Yes! Most antioxidants you are familiar with - vitamins such as E or C, selenium, and most phytonutrients such as those in tea, or red wine - act as scavengers of oxidant molecules; they try to clean up oxidizing free radicals after they have been created. Spirulina's super blue protein, phycocyanin, is different. Although it's an efficient scavenger of oxidants, Spirulina, phycocyanin, and its' component phycocyanobilin, (like their chemical relatives hemoglobin, bilirubin and biliverdin), affect some of the major sources of oxidant stress. Visualize a faucet struck open; water fills the basin splashing onto the floor. Think of the water on the floor as oxidant stress; pouring, filling and overflowing our cells. Most antioxidants act like mops - though typically each antioxidant can work on only part of the "floor". In contrast, Spirulina simply shuts off the faucet, and mops up the spills!

Can Spirulina give me more energy? 
Consumers say it helps them feel more energetic. Spirulina is not a stimulant and is low in calories. Try it and feel what others are saying.

How does Spirulina differ from Chlorella? 
Spirulina is more digestible than Chlorella and Spirulina contains the blue protein phycocyanin. Much more published scientific and clinical evidence supports the use of Spirulina compared to Chlorella. Both Spirulina and Chlorella are good for detox and cleansing. In addition, Spirulina has been determined to be generally recognized as safe through scientific procedures with FDA review. Chlorella does not enjoy that status.

What are the benefits of Chlorella? It is great for natural detox of the body.

What are the benefits of Green Blends? 
A blend of the green superfoods Spirulina, Chlorella, wheat barley grass and more.

How much Spirulina should I take and when? 
The answer may not be the same for everyone. A human clinical study suggests just two grams per day may provide significant benefits. Three grams per day provides 100% of the RDA of Vitamin A in the form of beta-carotene. Human clinical studies indicates 6 grams per day may provide increased protection from oxidant stress. Spirulina should be used as a part of a balanced diet. More than 30 grams per day may result in dietary imbalances. Take Spirulina with or between meals.

Can I take Spirulina with other supplements? 
Yes! Especially probiotics and Omega-3s.

How can I take Spirulina, Green Blend or Chlorella? 
If tabs or caps, take with plenty of fluids. If powder, simply add a spoonful to boost your smoothie, juice or sports beverage. Stir and enjoy.
