You see the expiration date on the back of a carton of milk and you wonder if you should drink it even thought it’s two days past the expiration date. When it comes to something like milk or eggs you better be careful. But is that same principle true when it comes to dried powders and tablets such as Spirulina and Chlorella?
Spirulina and Chlorella are two of the most stable foods that can be found anywhere on the market. They are carefully cultivated in a controlled environment. They are spray-dried so that all the moisture has been removed from them. This stabilizes these two superfoods since moisture is the great destroyer of food.
They also have had all the oxygen removed from them as well so they will not oxidize, the other destroyer of food. Once they are packaged inside plastic bags and vacuum sealed these two superfoods will last for decades, as long as they’re not exposed to direct sunlight. Light is the third great destroyer of packaged foods. When you expose any product such as this to direct sunlight it breaks down the chlorophyll and other nutrients immediately. This is why when we package these foods for retail we use packaging that is protected from ultra violet light.
The FDA, Food And Drug Administration, regulates that packaged food products can have no more than a three year expiration date so of course this is what we put on our packages, 3 years from the date of production. However, when Spirulina and Chlorella are properly spray-dried and packaged this way they can easily last 10 years, perhaps longer.
Our Chlorella producer in Taiwan has informed us that they have found Chlorella can last more than 20 years when packaged properly and not be exposed to sunlight.
