Spirulina is widely hailed as one of the world’s top super foods, known for its high nutritional value and its ability to promote health and healing. In 1974, Spirulina was declared by the United Nations World Food Conference as the “best food for the future”. Way back in 2002, OfERR undertook training in Spirulina cultivation from Antenna Trust, Madurai, Tamil Nadu, primarily as a means to provide refugees nutrition as a remedial measure, particularly for children and adolescent girls. Training was also given to over five hundred refugees who continue to benefit from this program by manufacturing and marketing Spirulina powder and allied products such as chocolate, soap, shampoo and capsules across various organic stores.

In the fourteen years that followed, the Spirulina program from OFERR grew from an income generation source and nutritional supplement for refugees into a thriving training center that has so far trained over four thousand people from around the world in the practice of Spirulina cultivation and received positive media coverage for its work. OfERR’s Nallayan Research Centre for Sustainable Development, located in the village Natham in Kanchipuram district now sees a steady flow of local and international visitors who participate in our Spirulina cultivation workshops through hands-on training. All participants receive a training certificate upon completion of this course.

Given its high nutritional profile, scientists examining malnutrition have shown an interest in Spirulina. Several studies have looked at the effects of its supplementation among malnourished populations, including anemic pregnant women and children in developing countries with high poverty rates, according to a 2017 review published in the Journal of International Medical Research.

Spirulina is said to help a range of eclectic health problems, including premenstrual symptoms and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease), according to the NIH. A combination of zinc and Spirulina may help the body clear arsenic in people whose drinking water has unusually high levels, according to the NIH.
