We explored the effects of spirulan, derived from blue-green algae, on blood clots through in vitro and in vivo tests. Our findings showed that spirulan exhibits notable antithrombotic properties, effectively breaking down fibrin and reducing the action of certain clotting proteins.
Tests indicated successful interactions with blood clots and demonstrated its potential to prevent clot formation in animal models. Overall, spirulan shows promise as a natural agent for tackling thrombosis-related conditions, suggesting it could play a significant role in future treatments.

We explored the capabilities of Spirulina platensis to produce a fibrinolytic enzyme under nutrient-rich conditions using corn steep liquor. The enzyme displayed impressive fibrinolytic activity, showing stability within human physiological conditions.
Despite these promising characteristics, the study does not indicate significant evidence supporting its effectiveness in treating blood clots specifically. The findings suggest its potential applications in thrombosis treatment, but further research is needed to establish clear benefits.

I use Now Foods Organic Powdered Spirulina twice daily in a green smoothie. It provides me with boundless energy and gives my skin a lovely glow. I can't imagine being without it. My daughter has started using it, and she claims it is the only supplement that has ever energised her and maintains her blood sugar at a steady level.

Blood pressure relief
This is really effective! I got it to help lower my blood pressure, and it truly worked. However, be sure to mix it with more than just water, as the taste is incredibly strong. The powder is hydrophobic, meaning it doesn't mix well; you'll definitely want to use a mixer.

Spirulina reduces blood pressure, assists with blood sugar control, and is effective against anaemia.
