why do ASTRONAUTS use SPIRULINA

WHY DO ASTRONAUTS USE SPIRULINA: 

SPIRULINA is loaded with VITAMIN K, CALCIUM, MAGNESIUM, BETA CAROTENE 

SPIRULINA contains all 8 essential amino acids 

SPIRULINA is the nutrient dense super food

Iron: SPIRULINA has 6 times more absorption of iron than normal iron supplements 

Problems faced by ASTRONAUTS : they have to prevent 

1. Bone density depletion 

2. Muscular atrophy 

3. Metabolic rate change 

4. Loss of body mass

5. Cardio vascular breakdown

6. Decreased immune system 

For this 

Foods have to be freezed, dried, dehydrated, radiation exposure, change in oxygen, carbon dioxide, temperature 

NASA CONCLUDED:

SPIRULINA one of the most powerful concentrated foods available to mankind for increased immune function and removing toxins 

The nutrient value of 1000 kg of fruits and vegetables equal to one kg of SPIRULINA
