Title of the Innovation: Iron and Zinc Enriched Spirunila Based Bars
Brief About Innovation
Brief Description:
Spirulina, a blue green alga (cyanobacterium) has been consumed worldwide as a health food and a dietary supplement. Spirulina contains essential fatty acids gamma linolenic acid (an omega 6 fatty acid), antioxidant phycocyaninis and is a concentrated source of protein, vitamins, provitamin A ( β -carotene), and minerals (iron and zinc). CSIR-IHBT has developed ready to eat foods incorporating Spirulina for forti iron and zinc utilizing different food matrices such as peanut, sesame and cereals that meets at least 20% of recommended dietary allowances (RDA) of iron and zinc. Spirulina and algae based functional foods market is pegged at USD 2 billion and is growing annually at 5.6%. Algae based functional food is expected to reach USD 4 billion by year 2025. India is second largest exporter of food grade Spirulina biomass.
