Spirulina is a favorite whole-food supplement among vegetarians thanks to its high protein content (up to 60% by weight) and its complete profile of essential amino acids. It's also a source of energizing B vitamins, valuable antioxidants like superoxide dismutase (SOD), soothing GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), cleansing chlorophyll and more. Our certified organic spirulina comes from Parry Nutraceuticals, the world leader in high-purity spirulina production.
Astaxanthin, called the "King of Carotenoids," is among today's most sought-after supplements due to its endorsements from world-renowned scientists, recognized medical experts and famous media personalities. It's considered one of the most effective antioxidants (up to 500 times more powerful than vitamin E, 10 times more potent than beta carotene, and an impressive 5 times more potent than lutein). It's one of the few nutrients known to cross both the blood-brain and blood-retina barriers to nourish these important tissues. The astaxanthin found in our new Swanson Green Foods Organic Spirulina & Astaxanthin is patented for use in eye health formulas and carries with it all the documented health benefits of astaxanthin for cardiovascular health, brain health and beyond.
