Spirulina extract

Any plans ? :)
Human evidence suggests that spirulina can improve lipid and glucose metabolism, while also reducing liver fat and protecting the heart. Animal studies are very promising as well, as spirulina has been shown to be of similar potency as commonly used reference drugs, when it comes to neurological disorders. These effects also extend to arthritis and immunology. (c) examine

For garlic ye, it might be. But spirulina? I dont even know proper extracts available at all, my brief search produces nothing. Only just raw spirulina, which ye, dont make much sense except general testing for mycotoxins etc
But i was talking more about extract, e.g. standartized to C-phycocyanin

Ohh, yeah a more concentrated extract could be a possibility. I was more speaking to bulk spirulina.
There is a C-phycocyanin reference standard. It also has multiple ring structures, so it can be seen on an HPLC/UPLC. That means analytical testing won't be as difficult as some things. Let me speak to the team about it.
