Gut microbiome,
the core of your health

Your intestines are responsible for digesting and absorbing nutrients, but through the gut microbiome, they also play a major role in your immune system, skin, energy levels, and even your mood. Yet, research shows that almost 1 in 4 Dutch people suffer from digestive complaints (source). At plnktn, we help address this problem with one of nature's most nutritious sources, full of unique micronutrients: algae.

Plktn delivers on its promise. I've been using the capsules for a few years now. My bowels are happy again, after a life of constant constipation. I also have more energy. Even my husband is going to start using it now.
Fast and clear responses to my
questions, and recently received a nice cap and water bottle. A great company.

I am very happy with the product, I chose the powder form because I don't like taking pills and the taste is surprisingly good. From day 1 it has been working very well for my bowels, for the rest I'll have to wait and see, but I am positive. Nice packaging and a storage jar included, and easy to contact with questions.

Composed of the
most nutritious algae

Carefully selected and sustainably grown in Europe, rich in essential and gut-friendly nutrients.

Chlorella

Cultivated in Oldenzaal (the Netherlands) in closed fermentation tanks, for the highest possible quality. Rich in B vitamins, including B12.

Wakame

Cultivated in Brittany (France) in a protected marine ecosystem. Wakame is a natural source of iodine and packed with fiber and minerals.

Spirulina

Cultivated in Catalonia (Spain) and dried at low temperatures to preserve its nutritional value. Spirulina contains calcium, iron, and the antioxidant phycocyanin.

Lithothamnion

Harvested from the coast of Iceland, exclusively from naturally detached seaweed. Lithothamnion is a mineral-rich source of calcium and magnesium.

  • Chlorella

  • Wakame

    Cultivated in Brittany (France) in a protected marine ecosystem. Wakame is a natural source of iodine and packed with fiber and minerals.

  • Lithothamnion

    Harvested from the coast of Iceland, exclusively from naturally detached seaweed. Lithothamnion is a mineral-rich source of calcium and magnesium.

  • Fibers & Prebiotics

    Spirulina, chlorella, and wakame naturally contain various dietary fibers: polysaccharides that serve as a food source for the gut microbiome. Microalgae like spirulina and chlorella primarily provide soluble and highly fermentable fibers, which nourish your gut bacteria. Seaweed such as wakame, in addition to fermentable fibers, also contains insoluble and less fermentable fibers, which contribute to normal bowel movements and gut motility. Combining microalgae and seaweed creates aΒ broader variety of fiber types, which better supports a diverse and resilient gut microbiome.
  • Antioxidants & Phytonutrients

    Algae are among the richest sources of marine bioactive compounds. Chlorella contains chlorophyll. Spirulina contains phycocyanin. Wakame provides fucoxanthin. These compounds are among the most researched marine phytonutrients and are recognized worldwide for their role in cellular protection and repair processes.
  • Vitamins & Minerals

    Plankton combines several natural sources of micronutrients. Chlorella provides B vitamins, including B12. Spirulina contains iron, calcium and trace elements. Lithothamnion is rich in ocean minerals such as magnesium and calcium. These marine nutrients originate from clean ecosystems and are naturally incorporated into the algae's nutritional profile.

Is plankton for me?

If you're looking for a natural way to support your daily health, plankton is for you!

While everyone is unique, our bodies largely need the same essential nutrients. Plankton offers an easy, daily supplement for your overall health. It contains an enormous amount of minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, fiber, and protein, all of which contribute to a healthy lifestyle.

What is the difference between plankton and other food products?

Plankton stands out due to its unparalleled nutritional density. Simply put, this means: many nutrients from a small amount. With just 2 grams of this pure product per day, you can already make a difference.

Furthermore, it is the natural origin of these four micro and macroalgae that makes plankton unique. Where other supplements are often synthetic and contain excessively high dosages, plankton is 100% natural and plant-based, without synthetic additives.

The perfect, naturally balanced addition to a healthy and varied diet.

Should I take plankton every day?

Of course, nothing is mandatory! However, we do recommend a maintenance dosage of 2 grams (4 capsules) per day as a supplement to a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

What is the capsule made of?

The capsules are made from HPMC (hypromellose). This is a polysaccharide (carbohydrate) extracted from plants & wood. This is also the most common way to make plant-based/vegan capsules. HPMC is known to be easily digestible.

Is plankton allergen-free?

As far as is known, our algae are free from allergens.

However, the product may contain traces of fish, crustaceans and shellfish. This is because the algae mix contains 2 types of seaweed.

Is plankton suitable for children and/or during pregnancy/breastfeeding?

Plankton is safe for children. However, for children up to 10 years old, we recommend 2 capsules per day. This is partly due to the high iodine content.

For pregnant women and/or during breastfeeding, we recommend consulting your (general) practitioner first, as there is insufficient research on the use of algae during these periods.

Why are algae future food?

Besides being incredibly rich in important nutrients, algae also offer tangible sustainability benefits. Compared to traditional food sources, algae do not require agricultural land and are incredibly water-efficient. Additionally, algae are one of the fastest-growing organisms and convert CO2 into oxygen and valuable biomass. They do this more efficiently than any other plant on Earth.

For these reasons, algae are often cited as an important food source for the future. At plnktn, we are taking the lead in this. We believe that algae will fulfill their promise and become part of a healthy and varied diet. plnktn's 1000+ 5-star reviews are living proof for us.

Why choose plnktn?

If you believe that algae can contribute to your health, then we promise you the following:

1. We always strive for the highest quality
2. We carefully and regularly analyze quality and safety
3. We do this together with local farms and renowned algae scientists
4. We continuously strive for improvement

The result? A pure and clean product with the highest possible nutritional value we can deliver.

Is plankton suitable for people with a thyroid condition?

The recommended dosage of Plankton (2 grams, 4 capsules) contains approximately 60% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of iodine. This may be a point of concern for people with a thyroid disorder.

To limit iodine intake, it may be advisable to skip plankton or reduce the dosage to 1 gram per day (2 capsules). We always recommend consulting your doctor about this first to make the best choice for your health.
