Category:Food Additive


Against the backdrop of modern health consumption upgrades, gut health has increasingly become a focal point for consumers. Scientific research indicates that the gut is not only a vital organ for digestion and absorption but is also closely linked to overall human health, earning it the title of the body's “second brain.”

 

As lifestyles accelerate and dietary patterns shift, maintaining gut microbiota balance and healthy function has become particularly crucial. Within this trend, natural, safe, and effective ingredients have emerged as core elements for health product innovation. Spirulina extract, with its unique nutritional value and physiological functions, is gaining prominence as a natural ingredient choice in the gut health sector.

 

Green Spring Technology supplies high-quality Spirulina Platensis extract sourced from natural alkaline lake environments. Rich in vitamins, minerals, phenolic acids, beta-carotene, high-quality protein, and tocopherols, it provides a scientifically sound and safe ingredient option for developing gut health products.

 

As the “second brain” of human health, the composition and balance of gut microbiota significantly impact overall well-being. Modern lifestyles and dietary shifts pose numerous challenges to gut microbial equilibrium. Green Spring Technology's spirulina extract offers a natural solution for gut health products through its exceptional microbiota-regulating properties.

1 Green Spring Technology Spirulina Extract: Natural Complete Nutrients, Empowering Health Product Innovation

As a nutrient-rich natural algae ingredient, spirulina is highly valued in the food and health supplement sectors. Rich in protein, chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals, and various bioactive compounds, it stands as one of the most promising health ingredients for development.

 

Green Spring Technology's Spirulina Extract boasts a protein content of 60%–70% by dry weight, containing all essential amino acids for the human body. It provides a high-quality, complete protein source with excellent digestibility and absorption. This is due to its cell walls composed of easily digestible polysaccharides, making it suitable for all demographics, including the elderly.

 

Regarding lipids, Green Spring Spirulina Extract contains approximately 5% to 10% lipids by dry weight. Of these, 70% to 80% are free fatty acids, including essential fatty acids such as gamma-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and oleic acid. Within the lipid composition, 83% constitutes the saponifiable fraction, while 17% comprises the unsaponifiable fraction. This unsaponifiable fraction encompasses diverse bioactive components including waxes, pigments, terpenoids, and sterols.

 

This ingredient offers a comprehensive vitamin profile, notably rich in vitamin B12, making it an excellent nutritional source for vegetarian products. It is also abundant in C-phycocyanin (containing 14% iron) and β-carotene (approximately 700–1700 mg/kg), the latter convertible into vitamin A in the human body to meet daily nutritional requirements. Chlorophyll content ranges from 6.0 to 20.0 mg/kg, exhibiting multiple biological activities.

 

Regarding minerals, Green Spring Spirulina Extract is rich in iron (580–1800 mg/kg) without phytic acid/oxalate interference affecting absorption. Its calcium and phosphorus content rivals that of milk, ensuring balanced and comprehensive nutrition.

 

Green Spring Technology employs advanced processes to maximize the retention of spirulina's natural nutrients and bioactivity. The product is suitable for multiple applications including protein supplementation, vegetarian nutrition, and functional foods.

 

2 Gut Health and Microbiome Balance

The human gut harbors a diverse microbial community that plays a crucial role in maintaining intestinal health. A healthy microbiome structure primarily consists of phyla such as Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and Proteobacteria. These microorganisms help stabilize the intestinal environment and support immune function through their metabolic products.

 

Maintaining microbial balance promotes normal lipid and carbohydrate metabolism while improving digestion, such as assisting in breaking down resistant oligosaccharides and participating in lipid metabolism. However, microbial stability is susceptible to factors including gastric conditions, bile acids, and digestive enzymes.

 

Factors like aging, lifestyle changes, dietary patterns, stress, and individual variations can disrupt microbial equilibrium. Current research indicates that scientifically sound nutritional interventions can provide effective support for gut health.

 

3 Spirulina Extract: A Natural Ingredient Solution Supporting Gut Health

Changes in modern lifestyles and dietary patterns may challenge gut microbial balance. Studies suggest spirulina and its bioactive components demonstrate positive potential in supporting gut health, offering new avenues for developing related health products.

 

Scientific research indicates that spirulina extract helps maintain gut microbial balance and promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria. Animal studies demonstrate that consuming appropriate amounts of spirulina extract can help sustain a healthy intestinal environment and support normal intestinal barrier function. Active components like spirulina polysaccharides have been shown to optimize gut microbiota structure, promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms, and provide beneficial support for intestinal health.

 

Furthermore, spirulina extract exhibits favorable properties in supporting intestinal immune regulation. Studies indicate that spirulina supplementation enhances intestinal immune markers and helps maintain gut microbiota stability under stress conditions such as exercise. Natural components in spirulina also serve as functional carriers, improving the bioavailability and efficacy of active ingredients.
