It is largely made up of protein and essential amino acids, and is typically recommended to vegetarians due to its high natural iron content.the high concentration of protein and iron also makes it ideal during pregnancy, after surgery, or anytime the immune system needs a boost.

most nutrient dense food on the planet
the concentration of protein and vitamins in spirulina has led many to classify it as the “most nutrient dense food on the planet.” compared to other foods gram for gram, it lives up to this reputation and is a great source of:
• protein: it is considered a complete source of high-quality protein and is often compared to eggs for the amount of protein per gram. The protein in spirulina is highly usable and has a net protein utilization rate of between 50-61%
• vitamin b1: also called thiamin, this vitamin is necessary for the digestion of fats and proteins. It is often taken for increased energy, eye health, brain function and for improving nerve functioning.
• iron: spirulina is a favorite food for vegetarians and vegans because it is one of the best plant sources of iron. Even for those who consume meat, it has a highly absorbable form of iron that is gentle on the digestive system.
• calcium: spirulina is also incredibly high in calcium with over 26 times the calcium in milk.
