Spirulina is a blue-green algae (Cyanobacterium) that is cultivated, dried and then ground into a fine powder. The Aztecs were known to harvest it from Lake Texcoco in Mexico where it was prepared and consumed for its rich nutritional contents. It is a good vegan source of iron and protein and it has been proposed that, gram for gram, Spirulina may be the single most nutritious food on the planet. It contains all of the essential amino acids and is a rich source of B vitamins, Chlorophyll and Phycocyanin. Spirulina is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory and is excellent for improving

Buy from SIMPLY PURE LTDSIMPLY PURE LTD is a UK retailer, not the maker. Price seen 2026-09-21. Not an affiliate link, we earn nothing from it.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as SIMPLY PURE LTD, number 06310256. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
