Ancient Uses of Spirulina

Tribe women collect spirulina in Lake Chad.

These African tribes have been using Spirulina as a superior food source for centuries based on their oral tradition. This means that they have been through their fare share of famines and crisis. To their benefit, the tribes have relied on Dihe, or Spirulina, to fight off malnutrition and have even used it as a bartering tool.  

This is proof that independent algae farms can make individuals, families and communities nutrient rich. A Spirulina farm can be seen as a bunker system and stored dried or mixed Spirulina can be seen as your reserve. 

Wealth for Billions as an idea stems from the principle of empowering women and children to learn how to grow nutrient rich foods.
