Spirulina tablets

Spirulina powder is more concentrated per gram but its algal taste is very pronounced, which puts off many regular users. Kiki Health tablets solve this problem: the same quality certified organic spirulina, precise dosing per tablet, ease of transport and zero taste. This is the ideal solution for incorporating spirulina into a daily routine without taste constraints, while retaining the nutritional power of raw spirulina.

Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a microalgae with exceptional composition: 60 to 70% complete proteins (with all 9 essential amino acids), bioavailable iron content superior to red meat, richness in B vitamins (B1, B2, B3), beta-carotene (provitamin A), phycocyanin (a blue anti-inflammatory pigment unique to spirulina), and omega-6 fatty acids (GLA). It is one of the most nutrient-dense natural foods known.

Several meta-analyses and clinical trials document: a reduction in triglycerides and LDL cholesterol (meta-analysis of 7 trials, Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2016), improved glycaemic control in diabetic or pre-diabetic individuals, a positive effect on blood pressure, and anti-inflammatory properties linked to phycocyanin. Spirulina is also being studied for its effects on allergy and immunity.

The standard dose is 3 to 6 tablets per day (approximately 3 to 6 grams), taken with a large glass of water, preferably before meals. Therapeutic doses used in studies go up to 10 grams per day. Start with 2 to 3 tablets and gradually increase to allow your body to adapt. Athletes and people with high nutritional needs can go up to 6 to 10 tablets.

Yes, Kiki Health Spirulina is certified organic according to European standards. It is cultivated under controlled conditions (certified photobioreactors or ponds), tested for the absence of heavy metals (lead, mercury, arsenic), cyanotoxins and microbial contaminants. Untested spirulina can concentrate aquatic pollutants — organic certification and third-party testing are non-negotiable for this type of product.

This is one of spirulina's major strengths. It is 100% plant-based and is one of the rare plant sources of vitamin B12 (although its bioavailability is debated) and highly assimilable iron. It also provides complete proteins with an amino acid profile comparable to that of eggs. For vegans, spirulina is a foundational supplement to be paired with certified methylated vitamin B12.

Spirulina is contraindicated for people with phenylketonuria (PKU) as it contains phenylalanine. It is not recommended in cases of severe autoimmune diseases (lupus, MS, rheumatoid arthritis) as its immunostimulating effect may potentially worsen these conditions. People allergic to algae or seafood should exercise caution. Avoid spirulina that has not been tested for heavy metals during pregnancy.

Yes, spirulina combines very well. With chlorella (detox and complete plant protein synergy), with vitamin C (improves absorption of non-haem iron), with omega-3 (complementarity on inflammation). Avoid taking it simultaneously with thyroid medications (spirulina is rich in iodine) or anticoagulants without medical advice.
