It is now commonly accepted that several diseases could have been prevented or better managed if our diet included more and better nutrients capable of confronting them.
For this reason, when we restore these deficiencies, symptoms from various diseases usually disappear. Otherwise, we reduce the functional capacity of our immune system with very negative consequences. Most often, we will try to correct the problem later by taking some medication.
Spirulina is not a drug, but when used moderately as a supplement to our diet, it effectively addresses health problems.
