Viruses are tiny infectious agents that do not have cells - they invade living cells in humans and other creatures and use these cells as factories to replicate.
When a virus successfully enters a human cell to replicate, the cell is damaged and will almost always die.
The virus-damaged cells cause inflammation and ROS (reactive oxygen species) attacks that damage other cells and can lead to a host of serious illnesses including pneumonia, encephalitis, cancer, meningitis, life-threatening bleeding, and skin warts and blisters.
Spirulina has been shown to effectively prevent and treat a variety of viral infections (see the research below). 

Fresh spirulina - never heated, never dried - provides up to 8 times more nutrients and 20 times more antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, enzymes and bioactive molecules than found in dried spirulina powder or tablets.

How Spirulina Prevents & Treats Viral Infections

Scientists have created only 6 antiviral treatment medicines - each effective against only one virus.
Natural spirulina interferes with viral attack and replication in ways that are effective against many viruses.

Protect yourself and your family from viral infection with a daily dose of SPRU fresh frozen spirulina.

Preventing & Treating Viral Infections Medically is Limited

The only medical way to prevent viral infection is through vaccination – scientists have created 11 vaccines to help prevent different virus types.
Some viruses mutate so quickly that vaccinations only provide protection for short periods.
Scientists have created only 6 antiviral treatment medications and each treats only one specific virus.

Spirulina: Natural Protection Against More Viral Infections

Spirulina is unique in its ability to prevent and interrupt replication of a great many human virus infections. 
Several different compounds inside spirulina are known to prevent viruses from penetrating their host cells, as well as inhibit replication.

Research review: Spirulina Treatment Effective Against Dozens of Major Virus Types

While drugs may provide some protection against specific virus types, viruses often mutate quickly rendering the drugs less effective.
This study seeks to investigate the anti-viral effects of natural spirulina which demonstrates powerful antiviral effects that remain effective in spite of viral mutation.

The author reviews numerous independent research studies that confirm spirulina’s effectiveness against more than twenty major virus types including: Adenovirus type 40, Bacteriophage T4, Dengue, EBV, Enterovirus 71, Epstein Barr virus (EBV), HCMV, Hepatitis C, Herpes, HIV-1, HIV-2, HSV-1, Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), Influenza, Enveloped viruses (many), Measles, Mumps, Progeny viruses, and Pseudorabies virus (PRV).

Research: Spirulina Inhibits Influenza Virus Replication, Reduces Virus-Induced Mortality - 2016

Influenza is one of the most common human respiratory diseases, and represents a serious public health concern. 
However, the high mutability of influenza viruses hampers vaccine development, and resistant strains often emerge quickly. 

New anti-influenza treatments are urgently needed - in this study we assess the anti-viral properties of Spirulina. 

Anti-viral effects have been reported for Spirulina extracts and compounds. 

Anti-flu efficacy studies revealed that Spirulina inhibited viral plaque formation in a broad range of influenza viruses, including oseltamivir-resistant strains. 

Spirulina was found to act at an early stage of infection to reduce virus yields in cells and improve survival, with inhibition of influenza hemagglutination identified as one of the mechanisms involved. 

These results suggest that Spirulina might provide a safe and effective therapy to manage influenza outbreaks.

Research: Chad Population Eats Spirulina Regularly – Shows 1000 x Fewer HIV Cases

Chad is a poor country where spirulina grows naturally - Dihe (as dried spirulina is locally known) is harvested and widely consumed today as it has been for thousands of years.

Researchers compared HIV/AIDS incidence and prevalence in Japan and Korea compared to Chad. 
Findings strongly suggest that differences in IV drug use and sexual behavior are not enough to explain the 1000-fold variation. 
Drawing inferences from epidemiologic studies of HIV/AIDS and in vivo and in vitro HIV inhibition by spirulina, the researchers propose spirulina consumption as a unifying characteristic of countries with anomalously low rates. 

Regular consumption of spirulina as a natural food source might help prevent HIV infection and suppress viral load among those infected.

Research Review: Spirulina Inhibits Replication of Herpes, Influenza A, Measles, Mumps, and HIV-1 Viruses

A Spirulina compound was found to inhibit the replication of several enveloped viruses, including Herpes simplex virus type 1, human cytomegalovirus, measles virus, mumps virus, influenza A virus, and HIV-1. 

It was revealed that spirulina selectively inhibited the penetration of virus into host cells. 
Retention of molecular conformation by chelation of calcium ion with sulfate groups was suggested to be indispensable to its antiviral effect.

Research: Spirulina: The First Known Treatment Against Child Killer Enterovirus 71

Enterovirus 71 causes epidemics of severe neurological disease and also hand, foot, and mouth disease in children. 
There is no other specific treatment for EV71 infection. 

With severe infection, hospital admission is needed to monitor for brain and heart complications. 
In this study, allophycocyanin purified from spirulina is found to exhibit anti-enterovirus 71 activity.

Antiviral activity was more efficient in cultures treated before viral infection compared with treatment after infection. 
Allophycocyanin was also able to delay viral RNA synthesis in the infected cells and to abate the apoptotic process in enterovirus 71-infected rhabdomyosarcoma cells with evidence of characteristic DNA fragmentation, decreasing membrane damage and declining cell sub-G1 phase.

Research: Spirulina Superior to Hepatitis C Virus Infection Treatment Silymarin

Silymarin - an extract from the seed of the milk thistle plant - is a widely used natural treatment for Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) by people wishing to avoid the side effects of pharmaceutical treatments.
Spirulina has been found to activate macrophages, NK cells, T cells, B cells, and to stimulate the production of Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and other cytokines, and provides compounds that are potent inhibitors against several enveloped viruses. 

This study compared the performance of spirulina treatment for chronic hepatitis c virus infection against Silymarin treatment.

Sixty six patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection were divided into Spirulina or Silymarin treated groups and treated for six months. 
The two groups were compared for virological response after 3 months and after 6 months. 
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire scores (CLDQ), Arizona Sexual Experience Scale scores (ASEX) and the occurrence of any attributable adverse events were also compared.

Results: There was no significant difference in the group results for most measures, but Alanine aminotransferase as well as CLDQ and ASEX scores were more significantly improved in Spirulina than in Silymarin treated group.

This is a small selection of hundreds of independent research studies confirming spirulina benefits for protecting our body from - and treating - viral infection.

SPRU_DOSAGE

Dosage: Fresh Spirulina to Prevent & Treat Viral Infections

Analysis of the above research shows that higher doses of spirulina over longer periods provide the best antiviral protection and treatment. 

As spirulina is a naturally grown functional food, there is no known dosage limit - In the United States 30-day fresh spirulina fasting is popular for detox and health improvement.  

Fresh Spirulina vs. Dried Spirulina Powder or Tablets

Fresh spirulina provides hundreds - perhaps thousands - of beneficial compounds that are lost during processing and storing dried spirulina powder or tablets.
Fresh spirulina provides up to 8 times more nutrients and up to 20 times more antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, active enzymes, and bioactive molecules than found in dried spirulina powder or tablets.
Almost any dose of fresh spirulina will provide more benefits than shown in the research studies - almost all were conducted with dried spirulina.

Dosage Control: Spirulina Portions (SP)

We measure fresh spirulina in Spirulina Portions, written as SP-1 (single portion), SP-2 (Double portion), SP-3 (Triple portion) and so on.
SPRU Shots contain SP-1.5 (One and a half Portions), while frozen Stix are available in Sp-1, SP-2, and SP-3 strengths.

Fresh Spirulina Dosage to Prevent Viral Infection

Most people find that one to two portions (SP-1 to SP-2) daily provide excellent protection for adults and children.
People with active lives, illness, or health or age-related concerns may wish to increase their daily dosage (SP-3 or more).
People with viral infection may consider higher doses of SP-5 to SP-15 per day to help fight the infection and alleviate symptoms.
Every body is different - listen to your body and learn what SPRU dosages and times are best for you. 
Consider double-dosing or triple-dosing when starting with SPRU to replenish missing nutrients or bioactives, or in times of stress. 
You can't take too much - people on fresh spirulina fasts consume SP-15 to SP-30 every day for thirty days or longer and experience remarkable health benefits.
