''What is spirulina?''
The name '''spirulina''' describes the genus of edible aquatic '''cyanobacteria''' performing photosynthesis. The chlorophyll is responsible for the green color which is why spirulina used to be called green-blue algae. However, it is now widely known that they are bacteria, not algae. Today, scientist know of 35 different species belonging to the genus spirulina.
