ABSTRACT

Spirulina and Chlorella are the most widely noted microalgae full of nutrition that can be consumed separately or in combination with food as a cheap food  supplement to eradicate  poverty and malnutrition among the BOP sector. An assessment to  find the acceptability of this microalgae as food supplement  is being focused in this research paper . The research study could be applied to generate alternate income opportunity for underprivileged people  in future for growing the microalgae in tanks for both personal consumption as well as commercialization.
