Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris) is a single-celled tiny algae that grows in fresh water, and it is also found in dark, green leafy vegetables. Chlorella is considered a whole food, and it's rich in protein, caretenoids (astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, flavoxanthin, loraxanthin, neoxanthin and violaxanthin), enzymes (pepsin) and chlorophyll.
Chlorella is rich in fiber and encourages beneficial intestinal microflora production, which can result in the elimination of food cravings, increased feelings of fullness at meal times, and better food elimination.
Chlorella has the highest chlorophyll content of any plant in the world.
Chlorella contains beta-carotene, which provides antioxidant vitamins C and E and selenium.
Digestion
Chlorella contains digestive enzymes. It also causes the friendly lactic bacteria in the gut to multiply at four times the usual rate. The indigestible shell acts as a bowel fibre, stimulating peristalsis.
Because chlorella is very alkaline, it can help to neutralise the body's pH, which is frequently too acidic as a result of consuming too many processed foods and fizzy soft drinks. Chlorella also contains vitamins A C and E and Selenium. Chlorella's outer wall contains glucosamine, which cartilage, tendons and ligaments rely on for constant renewal.
Anti-aging
Not only does it contain powerful antioxidants, chlorella has an abundance of RNA (ribonucleic acid) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), which are associated with anti-aging.
Chlorella can safely be taken by adults, the elderly and children aged over two years. It contains all the components essential to life, making it the most nutritionally potent wholefood available. Because it is a whole food, rather than a concentrated extract it can be taken in large amounts with no unpleasant side effects. In fact, chlorella has not been found to have a single detrimental affect on human health.
For general maintenance, a daily dose of 2-6 tablets is recommended.
Our Chlorella Powder goes through a special process gentle enough to preserve the nutritional value yet still crack the hard cellulose wall which surrounds each cell. This cracking of the wall enables us to digest and utilize the nutrients inside.
