Common ground and differences between Spirulina and Chlorella Spirulina:

Spirulina platensis microalgae belong to the most pre- cious alkaline natural substances of our time. In a concentrated natural form they provide more than Attributes Chlorella pyrenoidosa Spirulina platensis 50 vital substances for human beings and animals. In all eras they have been used as a supplement food, e. g. in Botanical name • Chlorella pyrenoidosa • Spirulina platensis previous ancient cultures of the Maya and Aztec. Species • green algae (Chlorophyta) • blue algae (Cyanobacteria) Conditions of growth • in fresh-water • in very alkaline soda-water • estimated age: approx. 3.1 billion years (pH-value 9 - 11)
