Spirulina is some wicked sh*t
Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at 9:07AM Maybe it's because it has more protein than meat. Maybe because it has more "veggie" than veggies. Maybe because it turns your poop green (not saying I know that).
I noticed spirulina on the ingredients label of nearly every superfood concoction around. I googled it and figured out this is some great stuff, then wondered why you never hear about it.
Well, I ordered some of it in bulk powder and quickly found out why it's not so popular. First, it doesn't taste great. It's not bad, kinda like how mullets aren't bad (just not good), but you wonder if maybe there's a dead shrimp somewhere in the container.
Second, the powder is super fine, like chalk dust, and gets everywhere. Turning over the tablespoon to dump some in a smoothie is like creating your own green Arizona sand storm.
Lastly, your lips and teeth will be bright green until you rinse your mouth out. If you're still in fourth grade or work in IT, it's a great way to show off to or freak out friends.
The upside is that it has so much nutrition, there's a warning label on the side saying taking too much will kill you. That's the kind of razor's edge I like to ride!
Spirulina - Pond scum that may be just too awesome for mankind.

A lot of specialists argue that credit loans help people to live the way they want, because they are able to feel free to buy necessary things. Moreover, some banks present short term loan for all people. Thank you for sharing
