Feeling tired & lacking energy?

Here’s how one of the world’s most nutrient-dense superfoods can support your energy!

Spirulina is one of the most nutrient-dense foods available to humanity. This microscopic algae is rich in protein, iron and a vast array of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, omegas and phytochemicals to support your energy and immune health.

In fact, spirulina was given to NASA astronauts on space missions in the 1970s. Astronauts’ bodies endure extreme conditions, which can lead to reduced bone density, muscle loss, lowered immunity, and toxin build-up. NASA chose this superstar supplement to help astronauts meet their specific nutritional requirements during their time in space.

Spirulina is also extremely rich in protein and iron – making it a great source of protein for vegans and vegetarians or anyone seeking a animal-free source of protein. Spirulina contains more usable protein than beef or chicken! (per 100g), helping to support you with lasting all-day energy.

This powerful plant-based all-rounder also contains beta-carotene, calcium, magnesium, and zinc, as well as the omega fatty acids GLA (gamma linoleic acid), LA (linoleic acid) and chlorophyll. Especially unique to spirulina is phycocyanin, a powerful antioxidant that helps to support energy and immune health. So, you can think of spirulina as nature’s ultimate multi-vitamin!

So which brand can you trust to have premium quality spirulina? Lifestream was the first to introduce spirulina into the New Zealand market over 40 years ago, back in 1980. Their founder believed in the health benefits of spirulina so much but struggled to source it in New Zealand, so he decided to negotiate the distribution rights and introduce it into the New Zealand market himself. Today, Lifestream continues to be the trusted brand for spirulina supplements due to its premium quality, purity and the company’s experience in innovating powerful, plant-based health formulas. Lifestream’s spirulina range is non-GMO and sustainably grown in pure fresh water and natural sunlight by the leaders in microalgae research. So, if you’re feeling fatigued, stressed out or lacking energy to last you through the day or need a protein boost for work-outs, try Lifestream Spirulina.
