I LOVE spirulina and eat it EVERY day. Spirulina has the highest protein of any natural food (65%); more than animal and fish flesh (15-25%), soybeans (35%), dried milk (35%), peanuts (25%), eggs (12%), grains (8-14%) or whole milk (3%). It has ALL the vitamins and minerals you need to survive except vitamin C (I added lemon and orange to these little suckers to make up for that). And it is SUPER GREEEEEEEEEN making it ridiculously cleansing and detoxifying for your body.
