Excerpts from another thread:

Here's a crazy question! Can Spirulina cause your body to detox? I think I read somewhere that it can. I'm a very big water drinker, but even still, I came down with an awful cold within a couple days of beginning the supplement. All is well and I'm feeling much better. I'm just curious.



Yes, all the Green foods help detoxify! About 10 years ago I started taking Spirulina/AFA and boy did I go through a flu symptom type cleansing!! But after the three days of feeling ill, I was feeling great!! It really helped on many levels this particular cleansing. My body almost refused to eat sugary foods after this.


It was so odd!, but I was better for it.

Yeah! It's weird. I totally felt ill for the last 3 days. Dizzy even. And then this aftternoon I perked right back up and felt all better within about 3-4 hours! That's what got me thinking - hey! This is probably detox! Not a "real" cold/flu! I would much prefer this over the real thing. All to make me stronger.
