Improve completely the immune capacity: spirulina is a natural immune enhancer. Through the activity of bone marrow cell proliferation, it promotes the thymus, spleen and other immune organs of the growth and promotion of the biosynthesis of serum protein, increase in the number of lymphocytes, thereby enhance the immune function. Antioxidant, prevention of aging and chronic disease: high levels of antioxidants can inhibit the destructive effects of free radicals on the cells to prevent aging and chronic diseases. Lower cholesterol, prevent cardiovascular disease: high levels of linoleic acid, γ-linolenic acid and other unsaturated fatty acids may reduce the body's cholesterol, increase blood vessel elasticity, lower blood pressure, improve cardiovascular function and prevent cardiovascular disease. Recovery of bowel function, elimination of gastric ulcer, constipation: the chlorophyll, phycocyanin, β-carotene, γ-linolenic acid contained abundantly in spirulina can promote the production of lactic acid bacteria to restore intestinal flora balance, repair the gastrointestinal mucosa, recover the bowel function and eliminate the effective gastric ulcer, constipation embolism. Prevention of obesity: the high protein, low fat and low sugar in spirulina provide not only adequate nutrition necessary for human life activities, but also adjust the body endocrine disorders.
