NOW is one of the cleaner ones. TAAU from Australia is by far the most pure and you can read further information on their website including independent test results. However, I contacted TAAU and they did not perform any testing for BMAA contamination, which is disappointing but there are no other Spirulina brands so far that can produce independent lab test results for BMAA testing. All we hear are claims that their products are cyanobacteria/BMAA free, such as being grown in controlled ponds or drying process does not allow BMAA and other explanations without being able to produce any test results to back it up. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1319562X13000430 http://scepticsbook.com/2017/02/10/does-spirulina-contain-bmaa-evidence-shows-yes-it-does/ **Q: Hi i received an order of this product. the top of the seal has 5 pin holes. is this supposed to be or has someone tampered with it? please advise** A: I know this is old thread but the holes are normal. I contacted NOW and they stated the holes are put there to prevent static buildup in the product. NOW received complaints about people opening the canisters and product “jumping” out, causing loss of product. The 5 equidistant holes should be oriented in a pentagon shape. My bottle had the holes in the seal but the other cap was heat sealed. **Q: Is this still the india produced powder that now switched to about 6 years back? can i get the old hawiian product again in the 4 pond jug? t** A: its from India **Q: How long will a pound of Spirulina powder last?** A: It depends on how much you use... I put a tablespoon in a smoothie every morning and it lasts a month. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first week with Spirulina *by on Reviewed in the United States June 16, 2013* This is a real honest review from a real person. You may contact me if you wish to know more.My first week on Spirulina was interesting. Let me first start off by saying I misjudged the people here complaining about taste. I have a strong stomach so I tend to ignore these types of complaints & whines. The first thing you need to know is that this is a freshwater blue green algae folks, I'm not sure why you're all expecting it to taste like gourmet food.After getting the Spirulina I popped it open. It was perhaps the deepest green color I'd ever seen. It looked like it came straight from a lush rain forest.I poured about 6 ounches of water and 1 tablespoon of the Spirulina into a protein shaker, shook it up and proceeded to slug it down with a big gulp. Let me remind you I have a super-strong stomach. As the first slug made it half way down my throat I gagged and almost heaved on spot. I was truly not expecting how bad the taste was to come. I've eaten some funky tasting supplments/powders before, non of which prepared me for this taste. The people on here calling it pond scum are being polite.Now, that is the negative part. You'll notice I still gave this product 5 stars. The same morning I first tried Spirulina I brewed myself a large cup of coffee from my Keurig. After I chugged the Spirulina I got a super happy pro-active energy burst. It was like a thermogenic fat burner without the jitters. I ended up forgetting about my coffee and 3 hours later was working strong on some things I had to do. So far I'm getting through the taste through gritted teeth, but the way its making me feel is worth it!*** Update Week 3 ***- Tried 1 tablespoon in apple sauce to dilute taste. This did not work and still tasted bad.- Successfully mixed in one tablespoon with veggie shakes. Reduced taste and was drinkable, but I'm lazy and don't make shakes every day.- I've heard things like grape juice can cut the taste but have not yet tried this.- Taste has not gotten easier. Buying a $20 easy capsule maker to capsule the powder. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes, the taste is less than terrible but... *by on Reviewed in the United States February 20, 2014* When I prepared my first dose of this product I got myself psyched up to down it because of some of the negative reviews I read before buying saying how awful the taste was. Well to those of you who wrote negative reviews about the taste I have to say that you were exactly right... initially. So I choked it back and I felt like I was going to chuff it out half-way down but I made it through and surprisingly I felt fine when it was over. Like no different than knocking out a big glass of water fine... Like afterward, not during; and I found it very agreeable with my system. No tummy ache etc..So the taste didn't improve for a while and I repeated this ritual every morning for about three weeks. It got better. I mean this stuff isn't Kool-Aid. It's algae. ALGAE. I accepted this and So did my palate and today the taste doesn't bother me... that much. I guess there was a breaking in period for this stuff. At least for myself. Sound have I experienced any noticeable benefits? Yes. More sustained energy throughout the workday. Subtly, my overall awareness has increased... like spatial memory and overall mental clarity. I'm feeling a little sharper I guess and that's good being at work 10+ hours a day; and during my workouts I seem to recover MUCH quicker between sets than before. Anyway I could go on. So, for those wanting to try this stuff I would say be prepared for it to be some rough stuff. This isn't a drink for pleasure, it is a drink for health. But like anything else good for you, it'll take some getting used too. I believe the benefits for me are far outweighing the getting used to the taste part. Five stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best spirulina ever *by on Reviewed in the United States July 29, 2026* As a vegan and someone who try many different type of supplements this one is true it very effective easy to mix with water easy to swallow it very much does give you energy and good for extra protein do recommend 10/10 no side effects at all ## Frequently Bought Together - NOW Foods Supplements, Certified Organic, Spirulina Powder, Rich in Beta-Carotene (Vitamin A) and B-12 with naturally occurring GLA & Chlorophyll, 4-Ounce - NOW Foods Supplements, Organic Chlorella Powder with naturally occurring Chlorophyll, Beta-Carotene, mixed Carotenoids, Vitamin C, Iron and Protein, 4-Ounce - Amazing Grass Super Greens Booster: Greens Powder Smoothie Mix with Spirulina, Moringa, Wheat Grass & Kale Smoothie Booster, Chlorophyll Providing Greens, 30 Servings --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/25970509-foods-supplements-certified-organic-spirulina-powder-rich-in-beta-carotene](https://www.desertcart.us/products/25970509-foods-supplements-certified-organic-spirulina-powder-rich-in-beta-carotene) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
