1. Spirulina is rich in protein, up to 60-70%, which is several times higher than commonly thought of nutrient-rich foods, soybeans, beef, eggs, etc. Protein is an essential element for sustaining life. Protein is a biological macromolecule composed of 20 kinds of amino acids, 8 of which cannot be synthesized by themselves in the body of humans and animals. They must be supplied through food to maintain the normal development and health of humans and animals. These 8 amino acids are very abundant in spirulina, much higher than other foods.
2. Spirulina is rich in beta-carotene, which is 15 times that of carrots and 40-60 times that of spinach. B-carotene is the precursor of vitamins. After entering the human body, it is decomposed by enzymes into vitamin A. Vitamin A is an important element that promotes the growth of young animals and prevents deterioration and dryness of the conjunctiva, lacrimal glands, nasal cavity, digestive tract, sweat glands and sebaceous glands. And keratinization function, can promote the regeneration of epithelial cells and accelerate wound healing. Promotes the formation of bones and tooth enamel. Therefore, long-term use of spirulina can protect the eyes, make rough skin delicate, and enable oral and gastrointestinal ulcers to heal quickly.
3. Spirulina is rich in vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6, B11, B12, and CE. There are many kinds of B vitamins, and each has its own special physiological function. Lack of any one of them may lead to disease.
4. Spirulina contains very high V-linolenic acid, which has the functions of promoting calcium absorption, improving immunity, preventing metabolic disorders and preventing aging.
5. Spirulina contains a variety of trace elements necessary for the human body, such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, iodine, selenium, iron, copper, zinc, etc. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, and zinc deficiency can lead to stunted development; selenium can activate DNA. Repair enzymes stimulate the production of immunoglobulins and antibodies, capture free radicals, reduce or resist the toxicity of certain metals in the body, and inhibit the carcinogenic effects of some carcinogens. Selenium can also prevent altitude sickness.
6. The chlorophyll A contained in spirulina has its unique hematopoietic and blood purifying functions.
