what is phycocyanin?
Extracted from fresh French spirulina, phycocyanin is considered the active core of this well-known microalga.
Technically speaking, it is a blue pigment with red highlights, bound to a protein. It provides numerous health benefits but is sensitive to heat, especially above 30 °C.
To preserve its properties, Tinctura has developed a unique cold extraction process, without any chemical solvents, using only fresh spirulina grown in France.
