Spirulina Groundnut Chikki

Spirulina Chikki, the seaweed-based super snack to boost immunity.

The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research Center in Mysore has developed a nutrient-dense food to aid immunity during the coronavirus pandemic. Spirulina Groundnut Chikki has been endorsed by the Central Food Technological Research Institute and has been called an ideal nutritious snack to strengthen your gut.

The research body has already supplied tonnes of this seaweed-based snack to healthcare professionals and migrants across Bengaluru, Mysore and Delhi.

Spirulina Chikki is said to provide bioavailable micronutrients such as Vitamin A, beta carotene and easily digestible algal proteins.

Many people ask “what is Spirulina?” In the simplest terms, Spirulina is a blue-green alga that appeared 3.5 billion years ago on Earth which is high in nutrients and considered one of nature’s greatest Superfoods.

Spirulina can be grown in stagnant water and has several micronutrients apart from high protein content. It is loaded with vitamins, free ions like zinc and iron, which are essential for general health. Groundnut Chikki itself is packed with proteins and is a popular Indian snack. Spirulina, added to the Groundnut Chikki, will help boost immunity in the long run. Covid-19 or not, this is for general well-being. We have supplied tonnes of it to migrants and doctors who work for long hours,” said Dr Raghavarao, Director, Central Food Technological Research Institute, Mysore.

 

 

Spirulina is a seaweed-based nutritional supplement and is known for containing minerals like calcium, magnesium and selenium. It also has antioxidant properties. Chikki, on the other hand, is a traditional Indian candy made of peanuts and jaggery, and is known for its nutritional and energy-boosting properties.
