For some reasons I trust them. Everything seems great, I believe it to be good Spirulina.
Spirulina has been my main source of protein for years, I order a pound of these per week.
Only tiny complaint: please make that bag of silica gel (or whatever it is) bigger because it’s annoying to avoid it at the end. I might even one day put it in my blender. Or figure out a way to get it to stick to the bottom.

I take this with dulse flakes and barley grass powder in a smoothie with bananas, orange juice, cilantro, and blueberries.
This combination works very well in getting the heavy metals totally out. I am excited to have found a combination that works well

Amazing taste. After buying tons of different Spirulina brands, I finally decided to take the plunge and splurge on this specific brands. I had received tons of raving reviews on this and I can attest this is the BEST Spirulina ever. The taste is amazing and it’s loaded with nutrients and vitamins. Especially loved the packaging- the bottle is glass and nice quality and the cap is similar the child-proof ones on medicine. Will purchase again once I run out.

I don’t know how i survived without this product…i truly feel healthy now!! My inflammation is no where near as bad as it normally is. I usually get flush around mid afternoon, but lately i haven’t at all! I was running late today and skipped my morning dose and realized how much it really helps my muscles and stomach!! My inflammatory issues have a lot to do with my gut and this stuff has helped minimize that. So when i skipped this mornings dose i truly felt it, badly!!! I also have to say that the taste is actually mildly delicious lol…that’s my subjective opinion. It’s like a sweet earthy green flavor, not like a dirt earthy though; like if Celery were to taste sweet one day. I take it via “toss and wash” with OJ because it is not water soluble so the citric acid will cover up the taste better and wash whatever residue is left out of your mouth. However, i am going to try to make some smoothies with it just for experiment sake. I could see this working well as a sweetener with something like yogurt and strawberry.

It stinks but it does not taste that bad and if you put it in a Blueberry smoothie you will not be able to tell it I am getting more energy every day with this and celery juice. I am amazing at all the vitamins and nutrients in 1 teaspoon of this stuff. You don’t need to take nothing else. it is a really fine powder and I put it in really warm water to mix then add cold.

I have read all of the benefits and I’m not sure if it does anything, but I feel healthy AF when I use it. The taste isn’t so bad when I add it to smoothies. If you’re eating it straight or using a big amount, then it is noticeable and pretty oceany, but it’s tolerable. The 5oz has lasted for a while, but the next time I’ll probably get the larger size.

Bought it for mom.
She loves it!
My local stores and pharmacies had Spirulina but it was wayyyy tooo expensive-
Decent price!
Thank you Amazon-
Update
My mom still loves it and she eats with yogurt and also feeds me when I come home. I think she really likes it. Me, well, I guess it helps 😀

Spirilina gives me a boost in energy and clears brain fog. I always feel better after I drink it in my smoothie. It’s better than taking a mulit-vitamin. I think the body can more easily utilize the nutrients. I wish the price would come down a bit, but I’m so glad that I discovered it!
Amazon Customer –
WOW, what a difference. Switched from Frontier organics after reading that Hawaiian-sourced spirulina was the purest and best kind to use. While the other had a hugely fishy aftertaste, this is barely noticeable in smoothies. Excellent flavor and so worth the extra cost. This is my new go-to spirulina.

I found out about this healing product in the book; Medical Medium. I’ve been using it for 1 month & feel fabulous!
April –
I absolutely LOVE this stuff and so wish I didn’t have the reaction I did to it and I’m so bummed because I wasted so much on something I can’t use…
The first time I tried this I absolutely loved it and felt the boost of energy it offers and it tastes better then I expected. But I did feel slightly dizzy after having it in a smoothie the first time and honestly didn’t think anything of it. But the second time I had (same smoothie- lots of greens, banana, mango. The same thing I have every morning only I was adding this) it start affecting my breathing. My chest felt heavy and the dizziness was so bad I couldn’t move for hours. A few days passed without me using it and I finally felt normal again. Someone mentioned trying half the recommended amount because it can have a detox affect so I figured I would give it a try since it was such a small amount. I took a few sips just in-case I had the same reaction. After about 2 minutes I got the tight chest, extremely dizzy, feeling like I’m going to throw up and this time ringing in my ears. Needless to say after doing some digging I found out this happens when you have an allergy. Which is strange because it’s normally tied to a seafood intolerance- something I don’t have.
Anyways! Long rant, just like any food product just be aware, it can happen.

Anything green is almost always hard to swallow, but if you mix it with food or juice (& maybe follow it up with bacon?) it’s tolerable. This is especially true when you consider the health benefits of spirulina! My cat had a cancerous tumor on his neck and I started putting this in his food. One week, the tumor seems to have shrunk!! The once visible lump on his neck has disappeared!!?! Can this be? I’ve heard of spirulina’s ability to shrink tumor but the quality of this stuff must be amazing to work so fast! Also gave it to my other lethargic cat & he seems more active! I can only tolerate it once a day (the cats love the taste) but I may have to up my intake to twice daily given what I’ve seen thus far!

My husband and I have a small side hustle selling a health product made with spirulina. We’ve been using this brand since the beginning and have found it to be the absolute best one despite several tries with others. It’s consistent, the product is always beautiful, it has a decidedly “sea” type taste without being overtly fishy or disgusting; tastes very clean. I love the dark color and I personally notice a quality difference just in health benefits versus other brands, especially over several months of use. This will turn anything you put it in green, even using a very small amount, but it surprisingly does not have an overpowering taste and I actually can put a teaspoon or tablespoon into a smoothie and barely notice it. I mean, it is powdered seaweed so there is a taste to it that takes some getting used to – but I can definitely recommend this product to anyone who’s looking for good quality spirulina that doesn’t taste too strong.
SCC –
I’ve ordered this product before and loved it! However this time around either I’ve gotten sensitive to the smell or it’s a bit stronger. Not strong enough for me to stop using the product but if you’re sensitive to fishy smells make sure you don’t exceed the serving size. I’ve found that if I use a little less than a teaspoon to my smoothie it’s pleasant and barely noticeable.
Reckon Ralph –
Great quality, no issues with heavy metals. Not made in China or Asia. Distinguishable taste and peace of mind. Great product, thank you! Also this size will last you 6-10 months! You can’t taste it in your smoothie but it is so good for you. Try it with Chlorella as well and be amazed! Blue Green Algae FTW!
CA_resident –
Just tried this brand and, hands down, it is a much better option than other brands in taste.
Need to mix it with juice and stir it very well – the taste gets masked well unlike the Whole foods one, which left such a terrible impression of spriulina on me. Glad I tried this one!

The attached pic was taken in Nov. 2019 when I was 68.
I only use it in smoothies, so if I am not drinking smoothies for awhile, I don’t always use it. But I have been using it CONSISTENTLY, as in pretty much everyday, for awhile now.
PROS:
ENERGY – THIS is the BIGGEST pro for me. From the first time I had spirulina in a smoothie, I was amazed. I didn’t expect to feel the boost of energy it gave me. And not like the kind from caffeine. Sustained energy.
OTHER BENEFITS: Feel it makes my skin look better, I just FEEL better, I feel it helps with aches and pains and just makes me feel and be healthier.
FLAVOR – OK, it’s not what you would call tasty on it’s on. I LIKE the taste IN MY SMOOTHIE, but not something like wheatgrass I could shots of. BUT I mix in with choc PlantFusion protein powder, almond milk, wild blueberries and about a tsp of this and I am FINE with the taste.
QUALITY – I haven’t found a better quality spirulina. My advice? RESEARCH yourself and see if you find something you think is more pure or better quality. Check where it comes from, what kind of checks are done on it and go with what you feel is best. After well over a decade, best I have found, but if you find something better, please comment and let me know!
QUANTITY FOR PRICE – for the amount you get, the quality, I am HAPPY with the price. I just buy this for myself and just use about a teaspoon. I often get the smaller jar, just because, even though larger more cost effective, I like opening fresh product about every six weeks. AND FYI, read the exp date!
WHERE TO GET IT: I STRONGLY suggest getting it SOLD BY NUTREX AND SHIPPED BY AMAZON OR SOLD AND SHIPPED BY AMAZON. SOME vendors are better than others and I always am happy with buying it this way.
SO FIVE STARS!

I make chia pudding and add a teaspoon of this to make this pudding into a superfood. This thing has no bad taste at all to me. I feel energized after eating this everyday and my bowel movement’s are great hahah! I love that it’s from Hawaii also.
real, uncompensated person –
Easy to swallow ? I put it in a smoothie so yeah. Freshness ? It’s dried algae, Duh. Like the 1 lb. bottle and overall quality. Buy again ? you bet…..

The color is so rich and beautiful! I use it in a smoothie and haven’t taken it with just water or juice yet. It certainly will stain your clothes (which is a good sign), so be aware. I mix it with wild blueberries, barley grass juice powder, cilantro, bananas and a cup of orange juice. Then at some point I eat some Atlantic Dulse. All together it’s a powerful smoothie. I got that recipe from Anthony William. Heavy Metals Detox Smoothie.

I have being using this product for more than a year. I give this to my kids every day. What I can tell after one year of daily use:
Allergies that my eldest son had where reduced to the point that his pediatrician ask me what I was doing.
They rarely got sick and when they do it last less time.
Focus and attention improves.
One of this last me like 6 months. I will definitely continue using this product.
Kindle Customer –
This product is tasteless when added to your morning juice, just have to stir a while to get it to dissolve.
I personally don’t see or feel the effect of taking it but it is suppose to be good for your heart and immune system.

LOVE THIS STUFF!!
I have been using Spirulina for the past 6 months +, and i started off using a brand that made their Spirulina in India, i bought it because it had 4 organic stamps and i thought it was the best; BOY WAS I WRONG.
After doing more research on Spirulina, i found out that 90% of the Spirulina on the market, and 100% of the Spirulina on the market made OUTSIDE of the USA is fed ANIMAL WASTE or ANIMAL FERTILIZER!
Yuck. Disgusting stuff.
So what i found was that Spirulina grown in the USA – CAlifornia and Hawaii, they feed their spirulina culture a Vegetable Broth for nutrients, much cleaner and much better.
I also found the dosing to be way off, This is what i found on the doage you should take per. your body weight:
10.9g for a 150lb person
14.5g for a 200lb person
18.2g for a 250lb person
This is based on the studies they did, you can find this info @ http://www.examine.com and search spirulina.
I highly recommend this brand, its affordable and effective. i use 15 grams every single day in my morning green drink, along with a handful of other ingredients.
This is a GREAT supplement and provides some really great stuff for your body, something i think i will always use – i personally like to cycle this stuff with Chlorella, however i am still trying to find a good clean source for Chlorella.
Hope this review helps

i take a big spoon everyday and i become physical energy, this is Nature’s ‘caffeine’. i am 46 and i am getting younger as my age climbs. Excellent and very healthy. Too lose weight : 16oz. of filtered water with 2 spoons of coconut sugar, a half to an ounce of Apple cider vinegar (Braggs preferably). ginger powder, cinnamon and of course a nice spoon of Spirulina (all organic) and esp. exercise. Note : this works the best being a vegetarian (wild caught fish included). (i went from 226 with a 39 inch waist to a 29-30 inch waist at 160 pounds with 3-5 percent body fat✌

I am somewhat of a spirulina connoisseur, having used it for many years and in quantities up to 27 grams a day. The first brand I used was from a MLM company, and it was of the same quality for a while, but my body started rejecting it after the taste changed. I went on an exploration, trying to find a brand that was as good as the first, and have finally found it. This tastes as clean or better than the first, and has a very fair price for the quality. I highly recommend this product as it is not easy to find clean, high quality, USA grown spirulina!

I absolutely love this hawaiian spirulina powder it is so delicious, my body feels so excellent every time I have this!! I could rave about this stuff all day ! I think everyone should be taking this!!! Thank you for such a great product !!!!
S. D –
The first day I took 1 teaspoon in the morning directly by mouth and another in the evening and had so much more energy than before. I didn’t expect this, not from just one supplement. The taste isn’t so strong like other spirulina that I’ve had. I’ll probably alternate between this and chlorella because of possible heavy metals said to be commonly found in spirulina. But this particular one has been good so far.
Irene –
1. Keep it in your fridge, but this is a great product. Been adding it two my yogurts, oatmeal, and smoothies twice-three times a week and I think it’s great thus far. I’ve used spirulina before but decided to actually not just buy oatmeal that has it, but buy it and make my own combinations. Love it thus far.
LWHNirvana –
Use it along w wheat grass with half lemon (organic w peel) and a grapefruit! blend all in my Vitamix! Tastes phenomenal. I drink it throughout the day and noticed a substantial increase in energy.!!

I’ve been using this product for 28 years. I love it. Works really well with my body. Gives me the energy that I need.
