Spirulina chlorella powder: why both
Most people who buy one algae end up curious about the other, and buying both means two jars and two scoops. In our blend you get both, measured for you, along with six other superfoods.

Spirulina green powder taste, softened
On its own, spirulina green powder has a strong sea-like taste that puts a lot of people off. In our blend it sits behind raw cacao and goji berry, so the algae taste is much milder.
Spirulina superfood in a smoothie
Spirulina and chlorella both disappear best into a cold, blended drink with frozen fruit. Recipes are on superfood powder for smoothies.

Spirulina and chlorella questions
How much spirulina and chlorella is in a scoop?
The label lists ingredients by weight but does not give a percentage for each. Spirulina is the fourth ingredient and chlorella the seventh.
What is the difference between spirulina and chlorella?
Spirulina is a spiral, multi-celled blue-green algae with a soft outer layer. Chlorella is a single round cell with a tough wall, which is why it is sold cracked cell.
Will it turn my drink green?
Darker rather than green. The cacao in the blend turns it brown-green.
