I want to know when it was bottled? As I am concerned about contamination in the Pacific Ocean.

Nutrex spirulina is grown in ponds, not in the ocean directly. Go to http://www.nutrex-hawaii.com/faqs and you can also contact them yourself.

Previous info on this product said IT WAS WATERED WITH SEA WATER FROM THE PACIFIC offthe coast of Hawaii. That would be in direct down hill flow from Fukushima, if true.

I don't know when it was bottled. I did research for a long time on spirulina and chose this one at last. This is made in usa, better than made in anywhere else. Although powder is a little bit harder to eat, it is easier to digest than tablets. So I choose powder. I bought capsules and a small tool (also on amazon) to put powder in capsules. It's much much cheaper than buying capsule spirulina. Hope this is helpful

Please contact the company that produces the Nutrex Spirulina as they are the best source of information for a question like yours.

Contaminated blue-green algae can cause liver damage, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, weakness, thirst, rapid heartbeat, shock, and death. Don't use any blue-green algae product that hasn't been tested and found free of mycrocystins and other contamination. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/923.htmlmy liver enzymes were significantly elevated due to this product....DO NOT USE!!!

After much research, I chose this Spirulina powder and I put it in my morning shake. Although not technically organic, it was very close. The company's processing procedures are right on. Now, fast forward, I bought this product before I was aware of the huge pile of debris and radiation contamination coming into the Pacific coast line from the Japanese tsunami. Before assuming though, I would contact the company to see what measures they are taking concerning this and how it affects the product. In the mean time, I am ordering broccoli powders and wheat grass powders from another source. It turns out we are not allergic to wheat so this works out fine.

This is an excellent question and exactly what I came here looking for. Thanks for asking it, and thanks to all who answered.

I have recently been over to the Hawaiian Islands and been by the facility that produces this product. The sea water is pumped up from 2000 foot depth. They share this pump site with a research facility. This is a clean product.

Have you kept it in the refrigerator? Personally I think if you've had it that long I wouldn't trust it in my tank. It's inexpensive where as your tank inhabitants is not. Toss it and get a new bottle would be my advice

should be on the bottom of the bottle. That is where I found the date on mine.

There's no indication on the bottle. That's a good question for the manufacturer.

I'm not sure. I used up the bottle so I no longer have a container to check.

July 2015 on the 3 I have left... Hope this helps. I see by the other responses they did not check the date on the bottle.

Mine says it was bottled on 11/1/2013 and has a 3 year shelf life. I got it today (5/12/14), so it did sit for almost 6 months meaning I get 2.5 years of use out of it. I'm sure I'll use it all up in that time frame though, even just using a few drops at a time maybe a couple times per day.

There is an expiration date on the bottle if that is what you are wanting to know.

Well Sofia, I bought my bottle a little over a year ago. October 2013 I believe and the date says June 2015. It was properly sealed when I received it. Hope this helps. Happy New Year!

It's on the bottle, but I no longer have the bottle. Try contacting the manufacturer.

I am sorry I didn't check the date on the bottle. I order it for someone else.

This product doesn't have a shelf life that I'm aware of. The contents are under pressure. As long as the integrity of the container isn't compromised you should be good to go.

My bottled was delivered wrapped in plastic and was already open. It leaked into the bag, so I just poured it back into the already opened bottle. I know that doesn't help you much.

Don't know, looked on jar and could not find a date. Perhaps on box which I through away.

The one I just ordered did not have a date. But each box 0f 100 is individually wrapped in plastic. My previous order all still taste fine. I probably used 2 per day.

There is a lot # on the bottle. I would think if one was to call the company, they would tell you the expiration date using that number.
