superfood-powders-1024x682In the previous post we covered Maca and the amazing health benefits.This post will concentrate on Spirulina, probably one of the most popular well-known super foods on the market.The dark green appearance and earthy flavour may put you off, but the health benefits out weigh the yucky taste. Also, if you find the flavour unbearable Spirulina can also be consumed in tablet form, just make sure no bulking agents are added in, you want pure Spirulina. One we love here at shop4supplements is Kaizen Living.

It has been well researched as a true whole food because of its comprehensive nutritional profile and its ability to synthesise Vitamin B12 without being of animal origin. A single serving of Spirulina naturally contains 680% of your daily reference intake for B12. Spirulina is also a good source of protein which is vital for muscle growth and maintenance, and is rich in iron which supports the normal function of your immune system as well as normal oxygen transport in the blood. Spirulina is also high in magnesium which supports the normal functioning of the nervous system.
