We examined the impact of spirulina and pentoxyfilline on oral submucous fibrosis, a condition affecting many in Asia. In our study, we randomly divided 40 patients into two groups: one received pentoxyfilline and the other spirulina for three months. While both treatments showed significant improvement, spirulina emerged as the superior option, notably reducing burning sensations without any adverse effects. In contrast, pentoxyfilline caused side effects, including stomach bloating and nausea. Our findings suggest spirulina could be a valuable addition to managing oral submucous fibrosis.

Bloating reduction

Beautiful and very nice, it reduced bloating and stomach discomfort, and its taste is pleasant and easy to use. The size is reasonable, and the packaging is good. This nutritional supplement has a good lifespan. I will purchase it again, as this is my second time. Improvement, God willing. The quality is high.

Excellent spirulina; we are taking it for the second time. After a week of use, I noticed pimples on my face and back, but after another week, everything cleared up, and the bloating vanished while my stool improved.
