Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae known to be protein and micronutrient rich, popularly known after being used by NASA as a dietary supplement for astronauts on space missions. Like chlorella, it also has a high nutrient density. It is high in protein, vitamin B12, provitamin A, and minerals such as iron. Because of its high nutrient profile, it is often used in developing countries to treat children with mild to moderate malnutrition.

Spirulina also helps to increase healthy lactobacillus in the intestine, enabling the production of vitamin B6 to aid in energy release. Some other health functions of spirulina include a role in detoxifying, relieving allergy symptoms and inflammation, improving blood pressure and improving blood lipid and blood glucose levels.
