SPIRULINA
Spirulina is a food supplement whose positive effects on the human body are already well known around the world. Its nutritional virtues make it a “super food”, nourishing and balancing as long as you respect its use.
Its scientific name is “Spirulina Arthrospira Platensis” and spirulina is defined as a filamentous cyanobacterium of blue green color, in the shape of a spiral. In many documents spirulina is considered an algae with many benefits on human health. This is why today you can find it in powder, flake form, still in capsules and tablets, and more rarely in liquid or “branch”. But its scientific classification does not correspond to an alga. In fact this is because spirulina grows naturally in water and with the help of good sunlight.
Spirulina is a “super food” because it is very complete due to its composition and its exceptional nutritional value. Some believe that this is one of the solutions to malnutrition and undernutrition in the world. Spirulina exists naturally on different continents and some countries such as France or India, has cultivated it artificially for a few years, which allows its quality to be controlled in the context of human nutrition.

The lake that feeds the growing ponds provides water of extreme purity, and our grow site constantly monitors the compounds in this water.

Thus, pre-conditioning without having to move the raw material makes it possible to organize an optimized supply of points of sale in India and in Europe.
The production stages:
Spirulina is cultivated in greenhouse tanks where the only heating energy consumed is the sun. The water is supplied by catching water from the nearby lake. The harvest is done by filtration of the contents of the tanks in order to separate the development medium of the spirulina. The next step is to carry out a pressing which will finish extracting the water to obtain a material to dry. This drying is done at low temperature which allows the spirulina to retain all its values and qualities. The grinding step comes at the end to reduce the spirulina to powder which facilitates its conservation and consumption (your dosage).
