What exactly is Chlorella?
– Chlorella is a single-celled freshwater green plant used as a whole food nutritional supplement. Because it is a whole food rather than a fractionalized extract or an isolated component, Chlorella contains all the beneficial components of the entire plant in naturally perfect balance. In addition to highly bio-available vitamins and minerals, Chlorella contains significant amounts of vegetable protein, beta carotene, and chlorophyll, known for its cleansing and purifying properties. Additionally, the hard cell wall (broken during the drying process) provides important dietary fiber and further aids in internal cleansing. Chlorella is related to Spirulina and Klamath Lake Blue Green Algae (often sold under the brand name of Super Blue-Green), all of which share the Green Foods category with things like wheat grass, barley grass, and the juices from these plants.
