Our organic spirulina is produced under strictly monitored conditions without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilisers in a secluded natural area in southern India - far removed from towns, agricultural lands, and industrial parks. The average high temperatures of southern India (30-39°C) in combination with low air humidity, low annual rainfall, and a maximum of sunny days create the perfect conditions for growing pure and nutritious spirulina.
As a natural result of being freshwater algae, the iodine content of spirulina and chlorella is much lower than in sea algae. Iodine is therefore only present in trace amounts in our spirulina, which makes the daily consumption of these tablets safe. We additionally have the iodine content tested by the producer, which confirms a low concentration of just 1.26µg iodine per tablet.
We further guarantee that our spirulina has no residues from toxins, heavy metals or polycyclical aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs come into being through the incomplete burning of organic materials, and can accumulate in the air as well as the environment, seeping into the food chain and finally bio-accumulating in fat tissue. The EU has established a permitted value for critical PAHs such as PAH for algae products (Regulation 2015/1993). Our ultra pure organic spirulina algae is well below these values (1.3µg/kg PAK 4, of which only 0.6µg/kg benzopyrene).
With levels 1,000 times below the limit permitted by the EU, our organic chlorella tablets are virtually free from toxic heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury.
