Chlorella
Chlorella
Definition: Chlorella are single-celled green algae, thought to
have the richest content of chlorophyll. They are traditionally
used as a blood de-toxifier. Chlorella contains an impressive
array of vitamins and minerals including 19 amino acids, RNA and
DNA. Like other forms of algae, it is recommended for blood
building, boosting the immune system and inhibiting both bowel
and blood toxicity. Testing is underway to evaluate its
phycocyanin content for cancer treatment. Like spirulina,
chlorella can help to protect against ultraviolet radiation.
Applications: Blood builder, blood purifier, cataracts, chronic
diseases, chronic fatigue, diabetes, food supplement, hepatitis,
hypoglycemia, gastritis, glaucoma, obesity and weight loss.
Recommendations: Chlorella is available in capsules, tablets,
powder, flakes, freeze-dried crystals, premeasured packets and
extracts. It can be a good source of vitamin K. Make sure to
look for pure products.
