Chlorella is a green single-celled microalgae that contains the highest concentrations of chlorophyll known (60 mg/serving). Chlorella supplies high levels of Beta-Carotene, Vitamin B12, Iron, RNA and DNA, and protein. The cell wall in this high quality Chlorella has been broken down mechanically to aid digestibility.

As supplements go, chlorella is among the elite few that reside in the "Near Perfect" category. For a simple single-cell algae plant coming from fresh water, chlorella's range of benefits is astounding.*

Chlorella will help you:

Chlorella is a supplement comprised of whole algae, unlike most commercial vitamins. And, chlorella is superior to vitamin supplements in many ways.

How Does Chlorella Help Your Body?*

Chlorella is comprised of a fibrous, indigestible outer shell (20%) and its inner nutrients (80%). It is the fibrous material that has been proven to actually bind with impurities that can accumulate in our bodies.*

A clean bloodstream, with an abundance of red blood cells to carry oxygen, is necessary to a strong natural defense system.* Chlorella's cleansing action on the bowel and other elimination channels, as well as its support for the liver, helps keep the blood clean.* Clean blood assures that metabolic wastes are efficiently carried away from the tissues.*

Chlorella is one of the MOST scientifically researched supplements in human history. There are thousands of research papers on chlorella from medical institutions, scientific journals and universities. NASA has even determined it will be one of the first foods grown on the space station when it is completed.

The research has come from all over the world by scientists at universities, private industry and chlorella manufacturers themselves. Not a single negative aspect of chlorella has ever been cited as far as human health is concerned.

Bioregeneration with maltose excreting Chlorella: system concept, technological development, and experiments.
Wolf L
Adv Space Biol Med 1997;6:255-74

The European Space Agency in the Netherlands studied a small-scale bioregenerative system to support long-term biological experiments on-board spacecraft with oxygen, water and food. Core component of this system were a special photo-bioreactor in which a maltose-producing strain of the green micro alga Chlorella is cultivated.

Post-exposure radioprotection by Chlorella vulgaris (E-25) in mice.
Singh SP; Tiku AB; Kesavan PC
Indian J Exp Biol 1995 Aug;33(8):612-5

Oral administration of chlorella increased the number of endogenous spleen colony forming units. The magnitude of radioprotection was dependent on both, the dose of chlorella fed and the time of administration. An optimal result was observed when 500 mg/kg body wt. of C. vulgaris was fed.

Effect of chlorella on rats with iron deficient anemia.
Matsuura E; Nemoto T; Hozumi H, et al
Kitasato Arch Exp Med 1991 DEC;64(4):193-204

In order to determine effects of iron deficiency on the living body, rats were given the iron deficient diet, the complete diet added with iron, the diet added with 1% chlorella, the diet added with 5% chlorella, or the diet added with 10% chlorella. For the first 30 days, rats of all groups were given the iron deficiency diet to make them iron deficient, and were subsequently given the respective diet during the next 30 days to observe various changes in the conditions of rats. Following results were obtained. Rats with some chlorella fed with the diets containing certain amounts of iron had rapid increases in iron levels.
