How many Spirinula daily?

[Charlotte]

Following advice, I bought these.

Question?

How many do I take daily?

When would I see any benefits? (If I do see/feel any)

Conflicting advice on Google. Not very helpful

Thank yyooouuuu ?

I personally take 1 teaspoon in my Teff porridge in the morning. It really helps my day awesome. Some chia seeds, banana, teff porridge, and spirulina, and you have one amazing morning meal.

I’d like to know as well, is there a recommended intake, or limit even, to how much spirulina you can take?

[Charlotte]

@Max_V  should I not take them in the evening? From the sounds of it they give you energy  If that's the case... I'm not sleeping tonight

@Charlotte i used to take those, theyre super cool, i had a lot of energy when i needed it, it helped with concentration too with my exams about seven years ago

I take a mixture of spirulina/chlorella most days 1 tsp does wonders as many nutrients in such high density and phytochemcials and many other substances/molecules not found anywhere else in general food. I once took 1 TBps was way to much i got extreme energy and some jitters like extreme high dose coffee.

I guess cause 1 tsp is already 5-8mg of iron depending on the source but then again many other nutrients and B-vitamins.

Mine are in tablet form so I'm unsure about Tsp's ?

Thanks for your input ♥️

I take 3 pills of spirulina, for chlorella you can take 5.  Dont expect to feel physical benefits, I take them for heavy metal detox because I eat lot of tuna and blue fish in general.

I used to be a fan of Spirulina until I came across Dr Greger's research. Playing a devil's advocate here, though you guys may be interested in following videos:

6 tablets = 3g = 1tsp roughly assuming they are 500mg a tablet as most are

For tablets i liked to take either 3 tablets twice a day

or 2 tablets 3x a day
