~ Spirulina, the algae also known as the king of superfoods ~

Spirulina is a type of edible blue-green algae, believed to be one of the oldest life forms on Earth, having appeared approximately 3 billion years ago.
Spirulina is known as the “king of superfoods” because it contains more than 50 health and nutritional components, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, dietary fiber, polysaccharides, and unsaturated fatty acids.

It has a long history as a food, having been introduced to Japan in 1968. In 1977, DIC became the first in the world to start producing it on an industrial scale. In 1980, UNIDO recognized it as a food to watch, describing it as “an important food of the future.”

UltraNanno™ Microalgae Feed

Health Care

"UltraNanno™", a concentrated liquid of the algae Nannochloropsis, is a plant-based feed for aquaculture.
It has a high omega-3 content, so after feeding with UltraNanno™, rotifers have twice as much omega-3 content compared to when fed with fortified chlorella.
UltraNanno™ is a product manufactured by VAXA and is cultivated using affordable and clean electricity, CO2, and hot water supplied by geothermal power plants in Iceland. Additionally, by cultivating in a closed system photobioreactor equipped with LEDs, it is possible to produce clean Nannochloropsis algae with little contamination all year round.
