6 ways supplements from the sea can help you achieve health
Algae
A type of algae called deep-green spirulina may well be the original “pond scum,” but today it’s mostly grown and harvested in commercial-style lap pools 10 yards wide and hundreds of yards long.
Astaxanthin (a carotenoid cocktail from the Haematococcus pluvialis algae) is also usually produced alongside spirulina in this way, though also in closed tanks. These are nutrient-dense powerhouses, which studies suggest can help improve everything from immunity and stamina to blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels.
