Wikipedia states:
A 2007 study found that 36 volunteers taking 4.5 grams of spirulina. per day, over a six week period, exhibited significant changes in cholesterol and blood pressure.: (1) lowered total cholesterol; (2) increased HDL cholesterol.; (3) lowered triglycerides.; and (4) lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
They say the study is not 100% because there was no control group.
Well – I would certainly try the Spirulina if I had any of those conditions!
What can you lose?
Spirulina is a super-nutrient, so you can only do yourself good. If it cures one of the problems mentioned, what a huge bonus!
Worth trying and see if it works for you.

This is great information, and it’s something I’m always trying to understand because my mom has high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I love natural cures, so I’m going to definitlely be looking into it.
