Overview
This NOW Foods tablet is labeled Double Strength at 1000 mg per tablet, roughly double the dose of the standard 500 mg spirulina tablets also sold by the brand. It carries the same certified organic status and notes naturally occurring beta-carotene, vitamin B-12, and GLA, consistent with how NOW markets its broader spirulina line.
The 120-tablet count, combined with the higher per-tablet strength, means fewer tablets are needed per serving compared to standard-strength options, which some buyers find more convenient. As a tablet rather than a powder, it also skips any need for mixing or measuring.
This product has an especially large review base for a spirulina supplement, with over 8,100 reviews and a 4.6-star average, plus a high bought-last-month figure, indicating it is a frequently repurchased item in the spirulina category.
Performance notes
At 1000 mg per tablet, this is double the strength of the standard 500 mg NOW Foods spirulina tablet, so fewer tablets are typically needed to reach a comparable total intake, though total serving amount is a personal decision to make with a healthcare professional.
What buyers say
Over 8,100 reviews with a 4.6-star average, along with a high monthly purchase volume, point to this being one of the most consistently repurchased spirulina products in this lineup.
