📝 Description
Spirulina is a biomass of cyanobacteria (Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima) that can be consumed by humans and animals. It is cultivated worldwide and used as a dietary supplement or whole food, known for its rich content of protein, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Studies have shown that spirulina can have potent effects in reducing rhinitis, which is congestion and inflammation of the nose. Clinical trials in humans have demonstrated that taking two grams of spirulina can lead to significant decreases in nasal obstruction, improved ability to smell, better sleep, and a reduction in inflammatory cytokines, along with a decrease in nasal itching.
