Overview
NOW Foods Natural Spirulina packs 500 mg of blue-green algae into each of 120 vegetarian capsules, providing the beta-carotene, vitamin B-12, protein and GLA that occur naturally in spirulina rather than being added synthetically.
NOW is a long-running supplement brand and this formula sticks to capsules rather than the powder form spirulina is also commonly sold in. The allergen list is unusually clean: no corn, dairy, egg, nut or soy, and the product is non-GMO.
- 500 mg spirulina per capsule
- 120 vegetarian capsules per bottle
- Contains naturally occurring B-12 and beta-carotene
- Free from corn, dairy, egg, nut and soy
Who it's for
Vegetarians and vegans looking for a whole-food nutrient source, and anyone avoiding common allergens, are the natural fit. It suits people comfortable swallowing capsules rather than stirring powder into a drink.
