Spirulina is the common name for human and animal food supplements similar to Chlorella and Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (Blue Green Algae.) Spirulina comes from two different species of cyanobacteria: Arthrospira platensis, and Arthrospira maxima. These are free-floating filamentous cyanobacteria characterized by cylindrical, multicellular trichomes in an open left-hand helix. Spirulina occurs naturally in tropical and subtropical lakes with high pH and high concentrations of carbonate and bicarbonate.

Faria..spirulina has got many nutritional values as it contains highest amount of proteins (55-77%). It is a complete protein containing essential amino acids like methionine, cysteine and lysine. It is rich in Vit B1,B2,B6,B3,B9, C,D,E.

Finally,,,i got the info from the site www.sciencemag.org

Dear kranthi,,

Thank you for your valuable comment..

As you know, iron is an important element in the body. Deficiency or overload of iron may lead to diseases or disorders in the body,

The iron regulating protein, called IRP1, has two structural forms, each with important functions within the cell.

When serving as one of two regulators of cellular iron metabolism through its control of gene expression, the tightly coiled IRP1 opens up to expose sites that bind messenger RNA at sites on the RNA called iron responsive elements, or IREs, that are common in genes involved in iron metabolism.

In its alternate form, IRP1 binds a cluster of iron and sulfur atoms to act as an important metabolic enzyme called aconitase. The assembly and disassembly of the iron/sulfur cluster in the aconitase form appears to be an effective mechanism for regulating IRP1 activity.

Still clinical trials are going on mammalian tissues.

These IRP's are involved in maintaining the homeostasis of iron content in the body. Galy et al conducted experiments in the body showed that the mice deficient of iron content and mice having normal iron content and nutrition in the body showed the same results. Hence he proposed that either the deficiency or normal levels does not affect the intracellular process.
