Raw Organic Chlorella

An excellent detoxifier and digestive tonic

Chlorella is a fresh water single-celled micro-algae, containing an abundance of life giving chlorophyll. Our Chlorella is cell-wall cracked for easy digestion and certified Organic by UK Soil Association. Chlorophyll contains all the components essential for building the blood. The molecular structure of haemoglobin is almost identical to chlorophyll, the only difference being the center atom, magnesium in chlorophyll and iron in haemoglobin. As we increase our consumption of chlorophyll the quality and quantity of our red blood cells improve. A clean bloodstream with an abundance of red blood cells to carry oxygen is essential for good health.

Benefits of Chlorella Chlorella is packed with protein - twice as much as spinach, about 38 times the quantity of soybeans and 55 times that of rice. It also contains nine essential amino acids, as well as vitamins and minerals. Chlorella has ten times the beta-carotene of carrots and is rich in most B vitamins except folic acid, but particularly high in B12 and so is excellent for vegetarians. It also contains vitamins A, C and K1. (Vitamin K1 is important in helping blood clotting so for those on blood thinning medications advice should be sought.) Chlorella is an excellant source of magnesium. Magnesium is one of nature's anti-depressants and helps us cope with stress. It is also important for our heart. Chlorella is highly alkaline and helps our bodies maintain a neutral pH, for optimum health our body should maintain a balance between alkaline and acid, with a pH of around 7.2-7.4. Overcooked, processed, fast foods, sugars and soft drinks (a pH of 2.7) are acid forming and have a detrimental effect on our health. Chlorella cleanses metablic waste from the blood, bowel, liver etc. Chlorella helps normalize low blood sugar levels(hypoglycemia) to keep our brain, heart and energy metabolism functioning properly. Chlorella aids the promotion of optimal blood pressure. High blood pressure is a major risk factor in heart attack and stroke. Studies show regular use of chlorella reduces high blood pressure and prevents strokes in rats. Chlorella contains many digestive enzymes needed for the proper breakdown and absorption of nutrients. Chlorella stimulates the growth of probiotics or friendly bacteria to multiply at four times the rate of normal. Mixed with yogurt or kefir and taken before a meal multiplies the beneficial bacteria needed for good health. Chlorella absorbs toxins within the intestines and encourages elimination- preventing constipation and toxic material being reabsorbed into the bloodstream. Chlorella is protective against toxins, its fibrous material binds with heavy metals ie. mercury, chemicals, pesticides and fungicides. One of Chlorella's unique properties is a phyto-nutrient called CGF (Chlorella Growth Factor). A growth factor in health and nutrition refers to a substance that builds the immune system. Chlorella has the ability to quadruple in quantity every 20 hours, which no other plant on Earth can do. CGF stimulates tissue repair, even if it has been ulcerated or damaged and has resisted traditional healing methods. It can be used topically on cuts to accelerate healing. Children fed Chlorella in a long-term study had healthy, cavity-free teeth, fewer colds and improved intellectual capacity. It is recommended on detox diets. It is so powerful a detox agent that people taking their first doses of chlorella may feel slightly nauseous, faint and lethargic. If so, you should stop and re-start on half a dose. Chlorella may be consumed by adults, the elderly and children aged over 2yrs. A daily serving of 3-5 grams is recommended, working up to 10-15 grams or more if preferred. Stir in water or juice. To further enhance its digestive benefits mix with yoghurt or kefir.
