Promising spirulina compound for acne
Transformation Chlorophyll a of to Chlorin e6 Derivatives and Several Applications.
Relevant findings for acne treatment
We explored the potential of a spirulina-derived compound, chlorin e6 trimethylester, to treat cancer cells and acne. After synthesizing the compound, we tested its effectiveness against Hela cancer cells and the acne bacteria, Propionibacterium acnes. Our results showed that higher concentrations of the compound significantly reduced cell survival and colony formation in both cancer and acne bacteria. This suggests that chlorin e6 could serve as a promising treatment option for both conditions through photodynamic therapy.

Probiotic and spirulina benefit acne
A Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of an Oral Probiotic in Acne Vulgaris.
Effectiveness supports probiotic use
We explored the impact of a probiotic combined with spirulina on acne in a 12-week clinical trial. This double-blind, placebo-controlled study involved patients aged 12 to 30 with acne vulgaris.
Those taking the probiotic experienced notable improvements, with 50% reporting reduced symptoms compared to 29.41% in the placebo group. Significant decreases in non-inflammatory acne lesions were observed in the probiotic group, suggesting effective treatment.
Overall, the probiotic combination appeared well-tolerated and beneficial in managing acne vulgaris.

Acne improvement
The taste and smell of Spirulina is quite unpleasant, reminiscent of a musty swamp. After a week of drinking it, I developed acne. My doctor explained this was a detox process and advised me to continue. Initially, I experienced some nasal and ocular discomfort. However, acne disappeared almost immediately after continuing the supplement. I've noticed it’s easier to get up in the morning, and I wake up without problems at all. If you're curious, please indicate, and I will update this review later with further results.

Acne removal
I don’t find the smell of Spirulina overwhelming, despite many claiming it's unpleasant. Sensitive to odours, I only detect a mild scent. I mix one teaspoon in a small glass each morning. Although at first, the powder clung to the spoon, I’ve since adapted. After a week of taking it, I noticed the appearance of acne, which suggests my body is detoxifying. Those spots are now fading. I chose Spirulina for its benefits, as I seldom consume meat and hope it helps replenish my B12 levels while cleansing my system.
