(1) Instead enriching the foods and drinks with Spirulina platensis. I will advice you to follow the calorific value of the food and the Spirulina concentration can be based on the recommended protein dietary allowance.

I would like to ask you some question

Hi Anish Joseph

thanks

I want to study hypoglycemic , hypolipidemic , and anti -inflammatory effects of spirulina cultivated in iran for firs time recently .

But until now cosumption of spirulina as a food supplement isn't common in Iran ,and industrial foods enriched with spirulina platensis don’t produce. would you please help me?

sincerely

I would recommend fermenting the spirulina which removes the fishy odours and taste and boosts the availability of the amino acids and enriches the vitamins.

I used spirulina in juices and baby foods, all sensory tests results showed the spirulina is a good  additives. 

I'm not sure about how to process the spirulina itself to reduce the fishy odour, however  have used it myself many times and find that although the odour is strong, if you mix it with ingredients such as spinach, almond milk, honey and peanut butter, it tastes great, is really healthy and doesn't have any fishy odour or taste.

  'how to process the spirulina itself to reduce the fishy odour,'

Ferment the spirulina with Lactobacilli and the fishy odor disappears. Also, the B12 rises, the proteins are broken down to free amino acids and the whole nutritional profile improves dramatically.

Dear  Vic Cherikoff

Hi

thanks for your good comment. I ferment fresh spirulina ( biomass) or spirulina powder? I want produce an industrial food enriched with spirulina for diadetic patient.

Please hele me and  say me how Ican ferment it. plaese send me related articles? I have to use spirulina powder.

best regards

It is very interesting to do fermentation with Spirulina. Do we need to add sugar with Lactobacillus into fresh Spirulina in order to start the fermentation process?

We have a supply of fresh spirulina in Bangkok, Thailand. however we are on the product development process in order to extend the shelf life of Spirulina without drying and turn into powder or tablet.
