I’ve been following the thread for some time….

I’ve been vegan for nearly 30 years due to severe food allergies - most days over the past 20 or so years I’ve been having a green smoothie using Spirulina mixing in fruits (except Oranges, Strawberries and Kiwi fruits as I’m allergic to them……..I’m allergic to my national fruit! It’s sooo embarrassing, lol!) and/or veggies depending on what I feel like – banana and beetroot is NOT a good combination! LOL! I fancied them both and just had to try it out – NEVER again! LOL!

I have alpha-Thalassaemia and Spirulina is chelated iron, unlike Spinach which is unchelated (too much unchelated iron can saturate my organs causing damage). I eat a lot of seaweed, green veggies cooked (except Spinach which is just……..bleurgh! I prefer to eat it raw in salads. I LOVE green salads and fruit and can be found happily eating my way through a generous portion of them, even in Winter! LOL!
