Does anyone take an algae suppliment? If so which brand do you use--I don't want to get some janky brand that doesen't even contain what I want to buy!

the only seaweed/algae supplement i use is nori with my sushi. should i invest in some good ol' algae? the health benefits sound both endless and amazing!
I'll be your product tester :) I can't wait to start taking it to see if it really does all those great things! I will defintely report back in a few days!!! You know what is yummy though that I just thought of--sea weed salad at japaneese restaurants, your sushi comment made me think about it--OMG that stuff is seriously YUMMY! I think I'll stop and get some on my way home tomorrow :)
i was going to get some at my market and then i read the ingredients and found out that that particular type was made with jellyfish! wtf!!?!?!?
What was made with jellyfish--the algae tablets or sea weed salad? either way that is GROSS and shouldn't be in there!!!
the seaweed salad :)
Oh PIP! That is unfortunate! I'm sure you can find it freash at a restaurant though--it is soooo yummy! Also--I had my first BGA tab today and by the afternoon I was out of this world happy--I wrote more about this in my blog if you wanna check it out--but yeah--these things are awesome-I love them already and it has only been one day!
OK! I finally tried the chocolate thing--it was pretty good--not something I would have every day though--the chocolate part was really yummy, but it was filled with some weird stuff--some kind of berry and crunch thing--it wasn't bad--just odd. Defintely not a "desert" chocolate--more like the sppon full of sugar before your medicine. But I do reccomend them.
Ummm... I 'll be the ignorant one and ask why blue green algae? What is the nutritional reason to take it?

For me personally it is really improving my mental clarity and my over all health--I just feel better. May sound lame--but true :P
I know this is an old thread, but I just picked up a bottle of spirulina caps. I'm hoping it'll help a bit with my allergies, which have been bad since I moved. If not, well, at least it's nutritious. :)
We have bulk blue-green algae powder at my co-op, and I have definitely noticed a difference when I use it too. I mix it with my protein smoothie before I go climbing, and sometimes when I'm just feeling low on energy. I've gotten a lot stronger and haven't gotten sick since I started taking it (this may be coincidental, but I feel great!). It has almost been a year for me now, and this is usually the first supplement I suggest to anyone for workout/exercise/energy booster purposes. The taste isn't good, but you get used to it.
