I call this green mana: “The Astronaut” 🧑🏼🚀 🌾
If I was going to outer space, this is what I’d bring with me nutritionally: algae (spirulina) 🧑🏼🚀 This conscious cocktail is: wheatgrass juice, blue spirulina, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, MCT oil, mountain salt, vanilla I go 30 days straight drinking it every morning, especially around Spring or the heat of summer. It’s my green mana. Doesn’t look it tastes good, but my lord, the body knows vitality when it tastes it. Swish it inside your mouth and let the chlorophyll heal, regenerate and revitalize. The reason I call it space food (The Astronaut) is because it literally is! Spirulina (and chlorella, another algae) have been studied and used extensively by NASA for space missions because of their unmatched nutritional density per gram: spirulina delivers ~60–70% complete protein, essential amino acids, B vitamins (including B12), iron, antioxidants, and fatty acids in a lightweight, compact form perfect for payload-limited flights. Gram for gram there’s nothing more nutritionally dense or transportable than spirulina or chlorella. Both algae are also prime candidates for bioregenerative life support systems on the ISS, lunar, or Mars missions, where they photosynthesize to produce oxygen, scrub CO2, treat wastewater (including urine), and yield edible biomass. Wheatgrass on the other hand, I only wish I sow among the stars, for it’s one superfood that changed my life, healed my skin early on, and give me many awakenings because of its pure vitality. I will share the full recipe soon and speak more on the alchemy of this cocktail because it’s completely transformative for digestion, oral health, skin vitality and energy.
