HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPIRULINA I just finished a live airing for QVC and the amazing 8Greens, a dietary supplement that helps you maximize your daily dose of greens. As the name implies, 8Greens contains eight essential greens for optimal health. Three of the greens are different types of algae, one of them being spirulina. I thought I would take a moment and focus in on the health benefits of spirulina. It truly is a superfood. While I highly prefer consuming my spirulina in an 8Greens tablet, as I find it much more palatable with additional green benefits, you can consume spirulina in its powdered form. |

HOW TO MAKE YOUR BEDROOM AIR HEALTHIER WHEN YOU BUY A MATTRESS When you bring your new mattress into your home, whether it came from a local store or an online one, it will likely be covered in plastic to keep it from being damaged in the process.
