    Spirulina is the most disgusting thing I have ever tried to force down my throat... but I'm sure it's very healthy

    This caught my eye from the website you linked to:

    "Hamsters treated with this water soluble extract had better recovery rates when infected with an otherwise lethal Herpes virus 9."

    Yikes. Is this a company/site that you particularly support?

    I have a 'health' drink mix that has spirulina in it. I think it is quite tasty! But it's probably a really small amount so I can't actually taste the spirulina in it. Very informative website, nervine!

    Excellent website.

    I normally have a shot of fresh coffee and drink it with that, or an americano.


    The flavour of Spirulina makes me want to puke, but coffee hides the taste (slightly)

    I don't take it that often, only once a week, as I prefer to rely on a varied diet, But I like to know that im definately getting all of the right protein, so 7g of spirulina reassures me slightly.

    I didn't know it was tested on with animals!!!

    Ill have to find out more about that.
