Many products labeled algae and cheaply manufactured spirulina are spray-dried where they use heat and the end product has less nutritional content. Other products are produced in less desirable and uncontrolled environments resulting in a questionable product. Most products are made in fresh water and don't contain the mineral content found in marine algae. Then there are micro and macro products. The micro readily penetrates the skin to deliver the nutrition to where it's needed the most. This product is freeze-dried, creating a product with maximum nutrition, shelf life, and benefits. This ingredient can be used anywhere from 5%-80% of your recipe. Its recommended to at least combine it with some oil to help facilitate the adsorption of the nutritional elements.
