FAQ
What is spirulina?
Spirulina is a blue-green microalgae that has been eaten as food for centuries in parts of Africa and Central America. It gained worldwide attention when space agencies, including NASA, studied it as a compact, nutrient-dense food for space missions. Today it is valued as a nutrient-rich superfood.
Is spirulina a complete protein?
Yes. Spirulina contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete plant protein. Its protein content (around 60-70% by dry weight) is exceptionally high by weight.
What is phycocyanin?
Phycocyanin is the natural blue pigment unique to spirulina. It is a phycobiliprotein not found in most common foods and is studied as a natural antioxidant pigment. We mention it as a characteristic component of the algae, not as a treatment for any condition.
Does spirulina help the immune system?
Spirulina is a source of iron and vitamin B12, and under EU rules these nutrients contribute to the normal function of the immune system. We share this as nutrition information; spirulina is a food supplement, not a medicine.
Is FOHERB Spirulina tested for quality?
Yes. Because spirulina naturally binds minerals from its growing water, clean sourcing matters. FOHERB sources from verified facilities and produces to ISO 9001, HACCP and GMP food-safety standards. Contact us for documentation.
Can children take spirulina?
This product is intended for adults. Please consult a paediatrician before giving any supplement to children.
Are there any cautions?
Spirulina is generally well tolerated. Some people notice mild digestive adjustment when starting - begin with a smaller amount and increase gradually. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or have a health condition (including an autoimmune condition), consult your doctor before use.
