Algae are single-celled or multicellular organisms that grow in different bodies of water. Despite not having roots, stems or leaves, they are often described as plant-like because they contain chloroplasts and use photosynthesis to make food. Some microscopic algae, like spirulina and chlorella, are extensively studied for their health benefits and are known to produce an abundance of essential nutrients and health-supporting phytonutrients.

According to studies, microalgal pigments possess many properties that are beneficial to human health. For instance, chlorophyll from the green microalgae, chlorella and phycocyanin from the blue-green microalgae, spirulina, have been shown to contain powerful antioxidant properties that can help protect healthy cells from oxidative damage. These microalgae also produce a wide range of carotenoids, which are known for their many healthy benefits.

In this feature article, you will learn about spirulina and chlorella and what makes these nutrient-dense microalgae two of the most powerful superfoods on the planet.
