Spirulina is basically an algae. It is often grown in commercial tanks and is then usually freeze dried or manufactured into spirulina capsules or spirulina tablets before it is sold to health food practitioners.

Spirulina has an incredibly high chlorophyll content, as much as 70% in fact, and it is the high density of chlorophyll which gives it the deep green/blue colour it is famed for. In fact Nestle have begun using spirulina as a natural colouring for their blue smarties, which you might recollect was retired in 2006 until this year because of the chemical colourings they previously used. (Nestle introduced natural colours and flavours across the entire range because of health issues over the chemicals used)
