Spirulina is a microscopic blue-green algae in the shape of a perfect spiral coil living both in sea and fresh water which is the common name for human and animal food supplements produced primarily from two species of cyanobacteria: Arthrospira platensis, and Arthrospira maxima. These and other Arthrospira species were once classified in the genus Spirulina. There is now agreement that they are a distinct genus, and that the food species belong to Arthrospira; nonetheless, the older term Spirulina remains the popular name. Arthrospira is cultivated around the world, and is used as a human dietary supplement as well as a whole food and is available in tablet, flake, and powder form. It is also used as a feed supplement in the aquaculture, aquarium, and poultry industries. BiologyMain article: ArthrospiraArthrospira are free-floating filamentous cyanobacteria characterized by cylindrical, multicellular trichomes in an open left-hand helix. Spirulina occurs naturally in tropical and subtropical lakes with high pH and high concentrations of carbonate and bicarbonate. Arthrospira platensis occurs in Africa, Asia and South America, whereas Arthrospira maxima is confined to Central America. From Wikipedia under the

Q. any issues with taking different dietary supplements together like centrum and spirulina ? Asked by BakedBones - Mon Dec 22 13:50:58 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well, there are no issues with taking both. It is basically a waste of money though because spirulina has a lot of vitamins in it, so why would you take another supplement with more vitamins that your body won't absorb. It is kind of pointless and you will end up peeing these vitamins out instead of absorbing them. Answered by camdeanne2001 - Mon Dec 22 14:10:11 2008 where can I purchase spirulina?
