HOW TO ENJOY FRESH SPIRULINA
Tips and information, and we hope inspiration, on how to incorporate SPRU into your daily diet.
KEEP IT COOL
Delicious SPRU fresh living spirulina is best when never heated as many vitamins, enzymes and nutrients can be lost above 50 degrees C.
HOW MUCH SPRU
Spirulina is a natural food. You can't eat too much SPRU
As it consists of tiny microalgae suspended in pure water, we use a Spirulina Portion (SP) system developed by Spiruliving Institute to guide your SPRU consumption.
Use our Daily SPRU Dosage Guide to determine how much SPRU you want in your dish or dessert.
Every SPRU product is marked with an SP rating to make it easy.
CREATIVE DRINKS
Convenient SPRU Shots are delicious straight from the bottle - just defrost, shake well, open and enjoy!
SPRU Stix are delicious with juice, water or in a smoothie - get creative!
Iced with a splash of lemonade, layered with yoghurt, cream or the milk of your choice, decorated with fruit, or textured with chia seeds - let your imagination go wild!
SMOOTHIE ALERT - tired of awful tasting health smoothies? With SPRU you don't need to add kale, spinach and other veggies to make a nutrition-packed healthy and delicious smoothie. We use mainly ripe frozen fruit, greek yoghurt, seeds and grains and rely on the SPRU to provide an even better nutritional punch.
BEAUTIFUL BREAKFASTS
Start your day with nutrition packed SPRU.
Defrost SPRU Stix with juice or in a smoothie, or even pour a Shot over your breakfast grains and cereal.
You're starting the day with the world's most complete and nutrient dense superfood (really, it's time to toss out those supplement tablets - they're full of nasty stabilizers and preservatives).
Not only are SPRU breakfasts delicious, healthy, and nutritious, they can be visually stunning too.
