    Default spirulina is organic?


    according to wiki murag dili na daw... pasabta nya ko ninyo ani...
    super food daw ni....
    pero grabe kaau negative effects oi. dmd.. hehe...

    Spirulina is a form of cyanobacterium, some of which are known to produce toxins such as microcystins, BMAA, and others. Some spirulina supplements have been found to be contaminated with microcystins. Microcystins can cause gastrointestinal disturbances and, in the long term, liver CANCER. The effects of chronic exposure to even very low levels of microcystins are of concern, because of the potential risk of CANCER.

    Due to very high Vitamin K content, patients undergoing anticoagulant treatments should not change consumption patterns of Spirulina without seeking medical advice to adjust the level of medication accordingly.

    As all protein-rich foods, Spirulina contains the essential amino acid phenylalanine (2.6-4.1 g/100 g), which should be avoided by people who have the rare genetic disorder phenylketonuria, where the body cannot metabolize this amino acid and it builds up in the BRAIN, causing DAMAGE.

    Organic certification

    Until recently, much spirulina was certified organic. In 2002, the USDA's National Organic Standards Board voted to disallow the use of Chilean nitrate. They granted a three-year window to spirulina producers, which expired in 2006.

    I decided to take Spirulina (with Chlorella) coz I don't eat chicken or meat. Well, I prefer not to. Spirulina helped with my anaemia and I actually do feel better than I did before taking it.

    I wouldn't buy cheap Spirulina as that usually means it's dodgy so I make sure the one I buy is produced in Australia coz here there are strict regulations. You have to check the labels properly and it's also good to check for a certificate of origin and licence. Also check the colour of the Spirulina.
