Superfood Highlight: Spirulina and BlueMAJIK - What's the Difference? + Health Benefits

Spirulina and BlueMAJIK (sometimes called Spirulina Blue) are two superfoods that may look very different but are not very different from each other! Spirulina is naturally dark green in colour, while Blue Majik has a stunning cyan blue colour.

What’s the difference between Spirulina and Blue Majik?

Both superfoods are extracts of blue-green algae. Not to get too scientific, but there are two main compounds in blue-green algae: phycocyanin (Blue) and chlorophyll (Green).
