Hash BioTech Labs Private Limited is a company involved in the field of phycology, the study of microalgae. It has established a biotech farm in the Indian state of Punjab to cultivate spirulina, an edible microalga that has been described by The Indian Express as a "wonder food".[1][2] According to the U.S. National Institutes of Health, at present there is insufficient scientific evidence to recommend spirulina supplementation for any human condition, and more research is needed to clarify its benefits, if any.[3]
