Spirulina
This product is the best quality Spirulina that i have found. Most will know Spirulina is not the most flavoursome food but this is the best that I have tried also price is affordable. delivery is fast.
Get your greens
In the world of fitness anything green never tastes good as expected. However this is the best value for money on the market. Good quality!
Quality stuff
I’ve tried a lot of spirulina products over the years and this rates high up the list.
Supernaturally fast delivery
The spirulina is exactly the same as other stuff I’ve bought, so quality checks out. It’s relatively affordable and as the title suggests, the delivery time was insane. I ordered on Friday night, and it was delivered to my doorstep Monday morning in Rural Victoria.
Spirulina goodness
One of the better tasting Spirulinas I have tried. I mix it with water in a Nutribullet in a few seconds. Goes well with orange juice which tastes a lot better.
Buy capsules
The quality is excellent and I feel wholesome and healthy when I incorporate this into my smoothies, however if you’ve never tasted Spirulina before you should be aware that it tastes and smells like fish food designed for the ugly kind of fish that you don’t like because your parents bought you a fish when you actually wanted a dog or a lizard.
Buy the capsules.
Spirulina
I just started using it, and it seems alright. however packaging is not as good as other products
