Spirulina is a microscopic, edible blue-green algae. It is technically a cyanobacterium—a primitive life form that has not developed a cell nucleus, distinguishing it from modern plants.

SpirulinaNord grows its own spirulina.
Using a cultivation system developed by Latvian researchers and engineers, we are able to grow this tropical microalgae in Latvia, North Europe.

Unlike standard products, our spirulina is never dried. It is mixed into syrups and juices immediately after harvest to preserve its nutritional value and neutral taste. Traditional drying destroys up to 80% of bioactive substances and creates the unpleasant "pond" flavor common in other brands.

We don't need to mask it.
The "pondy" taste common in powders is actually a defect caused by two factors:

1. Contamination: In open ponds, other organisms ("weeds") grow alongside the algae.
2. Processing: Nutrients degrade and oxidize during the drying process.

Just like fresh food has a neutral scent compared to dried or processed food, fresh spirulina should not have a specific smell. Our innovative closed system ensures absolute purity, and because we never apply heat or drying, the taste remains clean and neutral.

We use a natural mineral composition.
We cultivate our spirulina using a mineral balance that mirrors the water found in natural spirulina lakes. Because we use a closed-loop system, we do not need to use any pesticides or chemicals to prevent contamination from unwanted species.

Regarding certification: We do not hold an official organic certificate yet. We are currently in the process of identifying the specific regulatory criteria for our unique system and working with competent institutions to complete the evaluation.

No. We cultivate our spirulina in a controlled, iodine-free environment. Unlike seaweed, spirulina does not require iodine to grow.

Yes, the berry syrups contain a small amount.
There is approximately 6g of added sugar per serving in our berry syrups. To put this in perspective, this is significantly less sugar (carbohydrates) than you would find in a typical piece of fruit or a glass of standard juice.

Note: Our Spirulina Apple Juice contains no added sugar—only the natural sugars found in the apples themselves.

It depends on your taste preference. All products contain the same dose: 7g of fresh spirulina per serving.

• For Sweetness (Syrups): If you prefer something tasty, try our Syrups. They are sweet, can be stored at room temperature, and can be taken by the spoonful or mixed into water.
• For Convenience (Apple Juice): If you want a ready-to-drink option, try the Apple Juice. It tastes exactly like fresh apples with no "green" flavor.

Yes, consistency is key.
Spirulina is most effective when used as a daily part of your diet. To support a long-term routine, we offer Value Bundles (2, 4, or 10 bottles) at a discounted price—perfect for personal use or sharing with family.

Remember, the UN has recognized spirulina as one of the most sustainable and valuable foods in the world. SpirulinaNord is the only company in the world offering it in this fresh, innovative drink format, ensuring you get the maximum amount of living antioxidants, vitamins, and enzymes.

Yes. During periods of high stress or recovery, you can safely consume two servings (4 tablespoons).

Because spirulina is a nutrient-dense whole food and not a pharmaceutical medicine, there is no risk of "overdosing." Your body will simply absorb the nutrients it needs and naturally eliminate the rest.

It depends on the product:

• Syrups: These have a shelf life of 5 months. They can be stored at room temperature, preferably away from direct sunlight.
• Juices (Apple & Cranberry): These have a shelf life of 3 months.

Quality Guarantee: Since our products are active and unpasteurized, fermentation can rarely occur. If you notice a bottle becoming "stiff" (pressurized) or the color turning strictly blue, please contact us.

Yes, it is a natural source.
Phycocyanin is the unique pigment found in blue-green algae. Since spirulina is the only edible blue-green algae in the world, it is the primary food source of this valuable compound.

Yes, it is rich in a spectrum of healthy pigments.
Spirulina contains three powerful bioactive colors:

• Chlorophyll (Green)
• Phycocyanin (Blue)
• Beta-carotene (Orange)

Together, these provide the complete nutritional profile that gives spirulina its deep, dark color.

Spirulina contains practically no fiber.
It delivers all the key active ingredients of vegetables—vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals—without the hard-to-digest fibrous material. This makes it a perfect solution for people who experience bloating or digestive discomfort from high-fiber foods.

Everyone.
It is ideal for anyone looking to improve their overall health or reduce fatigue. It is safe and highly beneficial for all groups, including children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, seniors, athletes, and those recovering from illness.

It depends on your health goals.

• To feel better: We recommend using it for at least 2 weeks to notice improvements in energy and well-being.
• For specific conditions: To see improvements in blood pressure or cholesterol levels, it is advisable to use it for at least 3 months.
• For daily balance: If you feel your everyday diet is not balanced enough, you can use spirulina continuously to fill those nutritional gaps.

Yes, caffeine can interfere with absorption.

The caffeine found in coffee and tea can reduce your body's ability to absorb the nutrients in spirulina. To get the maximum benefit from your dose, we recommend waiting at least 1 hour between taking spirulina and drinking coffee or tea.

It depends on which product you choose:

• Spirulina Syrups: Mix 1–2 tablespoons (20–40ml) with water. We recommend a ratio of 1 part syrup to 3 parts water. If you have a sweet tooth, you can also enjoy it undiluted by the spoon.
• Spirulina in Apple Juice: It is ready to drink! Take 1–2 tablespoons (20–40ml) per day. No dilution needed.

Best time to take it: While there is no strict rule, for optimal absorption, it is often recommended to take spirulina 1 hour before or after a meal.

We recommend 1 to 2 servings per day. You might choose to take more during times of high stress or intense physical exertion to boost energy and speed up recovery.

Regarding "Overdose": Since spirulina is a natural food and not a pharmaceutical medicine, it is technically hard to overdose in a dangerous sense. However, because it is packed with biologically active substances, consuming excessive amounts may cause minor side effects such as digestive changes (loose stools), feelings of over-stimulation (anxiety), or temporary changes in skin tone due to the high concentration of antioxidants.

Spirulina is a complete nutritional ingredient that can be consumed on an empty stomach or with any meal.

However, if you want to maximize iron absorption, avoid consuming it with tea, coffee, or dairy products, as these interfere with the body's ability to absorb iron.

It is extremely rare.
Spirulina is not typically known to cause allergies. In fact, it is often used to reduce allergic reactions (like hay fever).

However, as with any new food product introduced to your diet, we always recommend starting with a smaller dose (half a serving) to see how your body reacts before taking the full amount.

Fresh spirulina is a normal part of a healthy diet, and studies have reported no adverse effects on any specific group. However, SpirulinaNord® is not officially certified as children's food or specialized nutrition.

It depends on the child's age.

• Preschoolers (up to ~6 years old): We recommend half the adult dose (1 tablespoon) daily.
• School-age children: They can take the full adult dose (2 tablespoons) daily.

Since spirulina is a natural food product rather than a medicine, there is no risk of overdosing. Your child's body will simply absorb the nutrients it needs and naturally eliminate the rest.

Teenagers should take the full adult serving (2 tablespoons).
Children of school age are ready for the full dose. In fact, given the high mental workload that comes with school and exams, spirulina is highly recommended to help support brain function and strengthen the immune system.

As soon as they start eating solid vegetables.
Because SpirulinaNord cultivates in a completely controlled environment without risk of contamination, our product is safe to introduce alongside complementary feeding (solid foods).

Think of it as a concentrated vegetable: it is packed with vitamins and antioxidants. Unlike some orange vegetables (like pumpkin) which can occasionally trigger sensitivities, fresh spirulina is widely recognized as a non-allergenic product. Studies have confirmed its beneficial effects for vulnerable groups, including young children.

Yes, it provides strong immune support.
Fresh spirulina contains a powerful antioxidant complex—including phycocyanin, chlorophyll, carotenes, and vitamins C and E—that delivers natural anti-inflammatory and immunity-boosting effects.

Customer Feedback: Many parents report that since their children started consuming fresh spirulina regularly, they miss fewer days of daycare and school due to illness.

Yes. Nutrition plays a huge role in brain performance.
A nutrient-rich diet is essential for maintaining cognitive function and preventing neurological issues. Spirulina is packed with unique bioactive compounds and essential nutrients that have been shown to directly benefit brain health and mental focus.

Extensive research confirms that fresh spirulina is safe for consumption across all groups.

It is a valuable source of iron—a nutrient often lacking during pregnancy. While many iron supplements can irritate the stomach, fresh spirulina actually helps reduce discomfort.

It is compatible with doctor-prescribed iron supplements and can even help improve iron absorption.

It contains Pro-Vitamin A (Carotenoids).
Spirulina is rich in carotenoids, the same safe plant pigments found in pumpkins and carrots. The body converts these into Vitamin A only as needed.

Safety Note: This is important for pregnant women, who are often warned to avoid high doses of Vitamin A (Retinol). Because spirulina contains only the precursor (Pro-Vitamin A), there is no risk of toxicity or overdose—your body simply stops converting it once it has enough.

Yes, it is an excellent way to prepare your body.
Fresh spirulina is a pure, natural food with no artificial additives—just algae and fruit syrup. It offers two specific benefits for women planning a pregnancy:

1. High-Absorption Iron: It helps build your iron reserves, which are crucial for conception and pregnancy.
2. Safe Vitamin A: It contains Pro-Vitamin A (carotenoids), similar to carrots. Unlike synthetic Vitamin A (Retinol), which can be risky in high doses, Pro-Vitamin A is completely safe because your body only converts what it needs.

It is effective both before and after training.

• Before Workout: Taken pre-exercise, it increases endurance. This is due to its rich combination of B vitamins, Vitamin C, and Iron (which is absorbed 30% better than synthetic iron supplements).
• After Workout: With over 200 biologically active substances, it speeds up recovery processes and helps reduce lactic acid buildup, allowing you to bounce back faster after intense exertion.

Studies suggest it can help manage symptoms.
Psoriasis is largely an inflammatory condition. Fresh spirulina contains powerful anti-inflammatory compounds—specifically Phycocyanin and Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA)—which have been shown in studies to help reduce inflammation and improve skin health.

One serving contains 2mg of Iron (approx. 18% of the Daily Value).
However, the key is absorption, not just the number on the label.

• The Spinach Problem: Spinach is famous for iron, but it contains oxalates, which block absorption (meaning your body actually absorbs less than 2%).
• The Spirulina Solution: Spirulina does not contain these "blockers." This means its iron is highly bioavailable, making it a far superior source for raising your iron levels effectively.

Yes, studies suggest strong antiviral potential.Research indicates that spirulina has broad-spectrum antiviral properties. Its primary mechanism is inhibiting viral replication—essentially, it helps stop the virus from multiplying and spreading further within the body.

Yes, it acts as a powerful prebiotic.
Spirulina is a type of cyanobacterium. In the digestive system, it serves as food for your beneficial gut bacteria (the microbiome). By nourishing these "good" bacteria, it helps regulate digestion and improve overall gut health.

According to our customers, yes.
We frequently receive feedback that fresh spirulina helps people recover faster from the lingering effects of illnesses, particularly Covid-related fatigue.

It is also reported to aid recovery from the flu, infections, and even physical injuries. Because it is a safe, whole food, it supports the body's natural rebuilding process without side effects.

Yes, by addressing the root causes of kidney strain.
Diabetes and high blood pressure are two of the primary causes of kidney damage.

Studies show that spirulina can help normalize blood pressure and reduce insulin resistance (a driver of diabetes). By helping to manage these underlying conditions, spirulina supports overall kidney health and prevents further stress on the organs.

Yes, it acts as a natural regulator.
Spirulina works to normalize blood pressure—meaning it helps lower elevated levels but does not negatively affect normal or low blood pressure.

How it works: High blood pressure is often caused by internal inflammation. Spirulina contains a unique antioxidant called Phycocyanin, which effectively reduces this inflammation, allowing blood pressure to return to a healthy range.

We have received promising feedback from our clients.
Several customers have reported a noticeable reduction in joint pain and stiffness after using our product consistently for several months.

Our Advice: While spirulina is a potent functional food and not a pharmaceutical medicine, it is worth trying. Since it is a safe, natural vegetable, we recommend adding it to your diet and observing how your body responds over time.

It may offer support through two key mechanisms.

While spirulina is a food and not a medicine, it has properties that are relevant to MS management:

1. Autoimmune Support: We have clients with other autoimmune conditions (such as arthritis) who report a noticeable reduction in symptoms after months of use, likely due to spirulina's anti-inflammatory properties.
2. Neuroprotection: Studies suggest that spirulina has neuroprotective effects and can help delay neurodegenerative issues (similar to findings in Alzheimer’s research).

Recommendation: Since it is a potent, natural vegetable, we recommend trying it to see if it improves your well-being.

Yes, it is widely recognized for its detoxifying properties.

This is due to its high concentration of antioxidants and the unique pigment Phycocyanin. Research suggests that Phycocyanin helps bind to heavy metals in the body, facilitating their safe elimination.
