What is spirulina?
Spirulina is a blue-green spiral-shaped algae. Algae are microscopic plants that have been at the base of the food chain for millions of years. Spirulina is an ancient saltwater algae known to the Aztecs, Toltecs, and several indigenous peoples in Africa such as the Kanembu in Chad. Many terms have been used to describe spirulina: green gold and even beauty food. Spirulina has a dark blue-green color, thanks to a brilliant blue polypeptide called phycocyanin. Phycocyanin is one of the phytonutrients in spirulina. The green color comes from chlorophyll.

Spirulina is used as astronaut food? The European Space Agency has been researching biological solutions for over 25 years to create a closed ecosystem in a spacecraft using bacteria, algae, and plants, without taking up too much space. During one of those experiments, it was found that spirulina offers possibilities. Spirulina contains many micronutrients and is more than 60 percent protein. Therefore, it is a good dietary supplement to complement the daily astronaut diet.
