Spirulina Lowers Blood Pressure and Supports Heart Health

09 Oct 2025

Description

Spirulina, a blue-green algae once used by ancient cultures as food, has been proven in modern research to significantly lower blood pressure Consuming at least 3 grams of spirulina daily for eight to 12 weeks reduces both systolic and diastolic pressure, with whole spirulina working better than extracts People over 50, those who are overweight, and adults already dealing with high blood pressure experience the strongest benefits from regular spirulina use Spirulina works by improving blood vessel flexibility, boosting nitric oxide production, and protecting arteries from oxidative stress and inflammation Safe and natural, spirulina is generally well tolerated, but it should be avoided if you're allergic to seafood or iodine, pregnant, or nursing
