spirulina with coconut water

I have used for a year now spirulina for my immune system, cleanse my liver, detoxify metals and boost my energy.

Spirulina has a lot of health benefits but I guess everyone can agree that smell and taste is not so good. You can use tablets or powder. If taking tablets you need to take them more than two a day. Everyone new with spirulina should start with low dosage like 1/4 tsp (powder) a day.You cam mix powder to smoothies, breakfast bowl, spinach/kale pancakes etc.

I take 1 tsp spirulina powder with glass of coconut water every evening. Coconut water removes the unpleasant taste. It should be mixed well before to drink it. Remember to brush your teeth if going out after taking spirulina!

Love & health!
