About DIC Spirulina
ー We support the resolution of social issues such as poverty and hunger, and the realization of a healthy lifestyle.
An international organization’s comments to the DIC Group that Spirulina could be provided to children as a source of iron and protein prompted the DIC Group to donate products made with DIC Spirulina to children affected by the Chernobyl disaster and refugee children from Croatia suffering from malnutrition. We have also provided Spirulina products and production technology free of charge to Zambia, with the additional aim of supporting their industrial development. We will continue to support the eradication of poverty and starvation so that more people can lead healthy lives.
