So, what is algen?

Algen, also known as algae in English, is a nutrient-dense food ingredient that grows in aquatic environments.

They are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and protein. Algen is a sustainable food source that can improve digestive health, boost the immune system, and increase energy levels.

Incorporating algen into your diet can provide numerous health benefits while adding a unique flavor and texture to your meals.
