LIVS Organic Spirulina 1,230 mg — Vegetarian Capsules, 60-Day Supply
Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a blue-green algae and one of the most nutrient-dense foods on earth — roughly 60% protein by dry weight, with B vitamins, iron and the blue-green pigment phycocyanin behind much of its antioxidant activity.
LIVS Organic Spirulina delivers 1,230 mg of certified organic spirulina per 3-capsule serving. 180 vegetarian capsules, 60 full servings — double the supply of most bottles on the shelf.
Why organic and tested is the whole point with algae
Spirulina is grown in water, and it absorbs what is in that water. Poorly managed ponds can be contaminated with heavy metals, or with microcystins — liver toxins produced by other blue-green algae species that can grow alongside spirulina in an uncontrolled harvest.
This is not a hypothetical. It is the reason independent testing exists for this category, and the reason cheap untraceable spirulina is a genuinely bad idea. Ours is certified organic, produced in a cGMP-certified facility in the USA and third-party lab tested every batch for strength, purity and safety.
If you buy spirulina from anyone — us or otherwise — this is the thing to check.

-
Recovery: Supports recovery from training as part of a balanced diet.
-
Cell integrity: Supports overall cellular health.
Capsules instead of powder
Loose spirulina powder is nutritionally fine and genuinely unpleasant. It is gritty, it stains, it tastes strongly of pond, and it turns whatever you mix it into a deep blue-green.
Capsules solve all of that. Three with water and you are done — no blender, no taste, no stained shaker. Vegetarian capsules, not gelatin.
An honest note on the dose
1,230 mg is a daily-nutrition serving, not a clinical one. Research studies on spirulina often use several grams a day, and if you are aiming for a specific studied intake you may want more than one serving — which is worth discussing with your healthcare provider.
What this bottle is designed for is consistent, everyday nutritional support you will actually keep up for two months at a time.

Organic Spirulina — Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the source of spirulina matter so much?
Because algae absorb what they are grown in. Badly managed ponds can carry heavy metals, or microcystins — liver toxins from other blue-green algae species that grow alongside spirulina in an uncontrolled harvest. Certified organic sourcing and third-party batch testing are what rule that out.
Can I take it if I have an autoimmune condition?
Ask your doctor first. Spirulina can influence immune activity, so it is a genuine conversation to have if you have an autoimmune condition or take immunosuppressant medication.
Is it safe with PKU?
No. Spirulina is around 60% protein by dry weight and therefore contains phenylalanine. Anyone with phenylketonuria should avoid it.
Is it a complete protein source?
Spirulina is nutrient-dense and high in protein by weight, but 1,230 mg is 1.23 grams — a nutritional supplement, not a protein serving. Treat it as a source of concentrated micronutrients rather than a way to hit a protein target.
Will it taste like pond water?
Not in capsule form. That taste is exactly why the capsules exist. Swallow them with plenty of water and you will not taste anything.
How long does one bottle last?
60 days — 180 capsules at 3 per day. Most spirulina bottles run 30 to 45 days.
Is it vegan?
Spirulina is an algae and the capsules are vegetarian rather than gelatin, so it suits plant-based diets. It is one of the few concentrated iron and B-vitamin sources that does.
With food or on an empty stomach?
Either. Take it with plenty of water. Some people find it sits better with a meal, and mornings suit most routines.
