WHY CHOOSE STRANDS
AND NOT POWDER, CAPSULES OR TABLETS?
Spirulina in Strands is the only form that preserves 100% of its nutrients
Your health deserves the best: a complete superfood with no industrial shortcuts. With Stranded Spirulina, you get a premium, efficient, and easy-to-use product that seamlessly integrates into your daily diet.
Spirulina in Strands represents the purest and most efficient form of this superfood: crunchy, neutral in flavor, and highly versatile in gastronomy.
Its artisanal cultivation and sun-drying process preserve essential nutrients such as high-quality proteins, iron, antioxidants, and omega fatty acids. In contrast, powders, tablets and capsules undergo industrial processes like spray-drying at high temperatures and grinding, which degrade sensitive vitamins (B1, B12), oxidize omegas, and drastically reduce nutritional potency.
That’s why only in its natural strand format spirulina maintains 100% of its biological and functional value, delivering a complete superfood with no loss of efficiency.
