Overview
Nutricost's organic spirulina comes as 500mg tablets in a 240 count bottle, positioning it as a standard tablet supplement rather than a powder or capsule. The company markets it as gluten free and non-GMO, which are the two main label claims tied to this product.
As a tablet format, it is aimed at people who prefer the convenience of swallowing a set dose rather than measuring out powder, and the count size suggests a supply that can last a couple of months depending on how many tablets are taken per serving.
Nutricost is generally known as a value-oriented supplement brand, and this spirulina product fits that pattern with a competitive price point for the tablet count offered.
