is this cracked cell spirulina? Evidentally it's easier to absorb. thanks so much.

Hello, it doesn't say anything about cracked-cell on the container but I think maybe you are looking for the cracked cell Chlorella and if you prefer the organic powder,copy and paste this to your amazon search bar: NOW Foods Chlorella Pure Powder, 1 Pound

I don't know what you mean about cracked cell but it is a very fine powder, will mix with anything and never feel a texture.

And also, the spirulina powder is already able to be digested, the algae Chlorella needs to have the cell walls broken for digestion. Hope this helps.

Hello. I was able to contact Now Foods directly with this question and was told that Spirulina is not cracked cell that process is only needed for chlorella, not Spirulina. Hope this helps.

It's iodine crystals mixed with purified water, it takes a day or two to dissolve and I don't remember the potassium iodide is probably a crystal also. I'll get you the website, wait....http://www.acu-cell.com/sni.html ... it's not the site I was looking for but most of them write about tablets (iodoral?), not liquid. This site has loads of information. I think it's considered inorganic but not synthetic. I'm not a biologist or geologist but it's natural enough for me. Another lady asked me where it's derived from and she has no results on her drug dosage so far but she could also have other factors like too much bromine, technical stuff, not enough magnesium on and on.. it's part of a cure not a cure all by itself. Of course doctors won't scan your whole nutrition profile so we're on our own but especially since it says after the thyroid the bosums take the rest of the iodine uptake so I doubt there's a high probability of overdosing on it either. I'd been using about five drops a day and go onto my next health regiment. I alternate with a lot of stuff. Now I'm on an herb kick. I don't think there's any problem with lugols. Check earthclinic.com also they have tons of health stories by real people and a lot on lugols too.

This algae actually has two of the best types. It's the best I've found. Don't forget to get you lysine levels elevated fast at first signs of a problem for best results.

in all my research on chlorella tablets i've never seen anything about it getting rid of red marks on skin. that doesn't mean that it doesn't do that. it does have anti inflammatory qualities to it. it's main function is to filter toxins out of the bloodstream. spirulina has a thin cellular wall and filters out certain toxins, while chlorella has a thicker cellular wall and filters out other toxins like mercury. it has other qualities to it, like high in iron and protein. but again, i've never seen anything about getting rid of red marks. try coconut oil. it helps my eyes when the skin around them is red. it too is anti inflammatory. in all my research on chlorella tablets i've never seen anything about it getting rid of red marks on skin. that doesn't mean that it doesn't do that. it does have anti inflammatory qualities to it. it's main function is to filter toxins out of the bloodstream. spirulina has a thin cellular wall and filters out certain toxins, while chlorella has a thicker cellular wall and filters out other toxins like mercury. it has other qualities to it, like high in iron and protein. but again, i've never seen anything about getting rid of red marks. try coconut oil. it helps my eyes when the skin... » Read More in all my research on chlorella tablets i've never seen anything about it getting rid of red marks on skin. that doesn't mean that it doesn't do that. it does have anti inflammatory qualities to it. it's main function is to filter toxins out of the bloodstream. spirulina has a thin cellular wall and filters out certain toxins, while chlorella has a thicker cellular wall and filters out other toxins like mercury. it has other qualities to it, like high in iron and protein. but again, i've never seen anything about getting rid of red marks. try coconut oil. it helps my eyes when the skin around them is red. it too is anti inflammatory. « Show Less

Well chlorella is a type of algae. Therefore if you can verify that the species of algae in the "broken cell wall algae" is chlorella, then there should be virtually no difference--aside from dosage and perhaps other ingredients. But those both would be labeled.

It is low in iodine (daily amount, or what is needed to get healthy again), but it is better than most. Lugol's solution is much stronger, but the kelp is safer/less painful.

I mix it with biosuperfood (a spirulina supplement) as well as a liquid vitamin supplement. It seems to be fine.

It's like thin green plastic strands melted together into a shape. It allows water to drain thru. I don't see why you couldn't use it in an aquarium. It's not absorbant and it won't tiny the water. I got it to put on top of my puppy pads and my dog seemed to take to it right away. I just rinse it off in the shower. I've also thrown in the washer. I think you have a good idea. If I can answer any other questions let me know.

Spirulina does have a strong, fishy smell. Despite the odor, I've found it to be very effective for specific conditions.

"Triquetra Health has tied up with Parry company to obtain organic Spirulina which has more organic and quality certifications than other sources of spirulina. It has also been tested and shown to be free of heavy metals and algae toxins" - quote from their site, hope it helps...cheers

I done both dropped it in water and just took it thru the dropper. I find it better to drink it in water.

I am not aware of that product. I have used bleach in mine and it seems to be fine. I do get algae so it does need some attention.

There's 2 different ones, the one with the freezable liquid inside and this one. The one with the freezable liquid cracks too easily. This one is better!

There are two processes that make it easier to absorb. The piperine (pepper) is one, the other is Meriva. This uses the second, obviously.

as far as I can tell from using spirulina before it is from China as it is very dark. California product is a very light green. As far as the testing I can't be sure. Something the company would have to answer.

Hello, I'm sorry but not at my residence at present; I believe the spirulina is from the U.S., but cannot be sure without reviewing the packaging. Perhaps Starwest can help?
