malnutrition and spirulina
Date:2019-04-23Views:1283
Globally, malnutrition is a serious problem, and developing countries bear the brunt of this challenging public health problem. Many people who are fortunate enough to live in rich countries have access to a wealth of healthy food. Nevertheless, even the struggling inhabitants of the global superpowers may face malnutrition.

The impact of malnutrition is undoubtedly a matter of concern. Iron deficiency can lead to developmental retardation, cognitive impairment and reproductive hazards. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to low immunity, blindness and even death in children. Anemia (iodine deficiency) leads to developmental disorders, goiter and other health problems.

Of course, malnutrition causes more problems than personal health. Countries with high malnutrition rates may also face a tough battle in terms of cultural and economic development.
Nutrition-intensive, renewable food sources are one of the most effective tools to combat malnutrition, and Spirulina meets these two criteria.



What is Spirulina?

Spirulina is a spiral multicellular organism that uses light, warm water to produce essential nutrients. It is one of the most nutritious foods on earth.

Nutritional Density of Spirulina


Spirulina by weight contains about 60% of the protein. Although protein deficiency is not a major problem for most people in the first world, protein deficiency in developing countries often makes it difficult to obtain sufficient high-quality proteins. In addition, the protein in Spirulina is complete, which means that it contains all nine essential amino acids that the human body does not produce.

Spirulina is also rich in minerals such as iron, chromium and potassium, fatty acids and vitamins, including B12, A, K1 and K2.

In short, Spirulina has all the nutrients needed to make global malnutrition a footnote in history.


Spirulina platensis is an effective way to combat malnutrition

In order to have the greatest impact on global malnutrition, people who address this problem must strive to improve efficiency. It is estimated that Spirulina has the lowest land use efficiency per unit of protein and digestible energy. Spirulina produces 20 times as much protein per acre as soybeans, 40 times as much protein as corn, and more than 200 times as much protein as beef.



Compared with livestock, the production footprint of Spirulina is almost non-existent. Spirulina can provide a small portion of the resources needed to feed billions of people in any other way.



It can be cultured in almost any biota system, making it an ideal choice in areas where nutrient-rich soils are rare in the world. Spirulina can also be easily cultured in tanks, and the training process can be learned with minimal training.


The benefits of Spirulina are so effective that it provides health and nutrition for almost every organ and body function. Adding Spirulina Hawaii is a simple and effective way to provide the body with many of the most important nutrients needed for health and well-being.
