Algae snacks in Las Vegas, baby | Catharine Arnston

What's new in the world of edible algae? ENERGYBits founder and CEO Catharine Arnston has achieved her goal of taking part in A4M, one of the world's premier health events, focusing on functional medicine. We met up at the 2024 American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine extravaganza in Las Vegas. Arnston is on a mission to introduce algae to everyday diets for health and longevity. Touted for its potent healing and nourishing properties, algae, particularly spirulina and chlorella, have garnered support from organizations like the United Nations and NASA for their dense nutritional profiles and potential in combating world hunger. In this interview with Peter Bowes, she explains the difference between spirulina and chlorella; discusses her goal to grow algae in the US and her continuing passion for algae as a (so-far) under appreciated super food. ▸ DISCOUNT Try algae for yourself?
