Chlorella is a single celled algae, containing readily available chlorophyll after the cell wall has been broken.
It has been used in many cultures as in a food source and today stands as the most widely used algae around the world.
One of the most heavily researched algaes in the world, NASA chose this super algae, in particular, as one of the first foods grown on space station, notably due to it's outstanding health benefits.
Cleans Out Mercury and Other Heavy Metals!
In today's world we are all subject to high levels of heavy metal toxicity from wall paint to mercury dental fillings. Linked to many modern day diseases, heavy metals have an enormous effect on overall energy levels and well being.
Using large doses of this incredible algae has been proven to facilitate fecal mercury excretion and an array of other heavy metals and chemical substances.
Chlorella IS Chlorophyll!
Chlorella contains the highest amount of chlorophyll of any plant known. In fact, this is where it gets it's name. Chlorophyll cells are nearly identical to red blood cells. The only difference is that chlorophyll has magnesium at its center and blood has iron. This is part of the reason why this algae purifies and nourish the blood so deeply.
It is one of my favorite top 10 superfoods for eliminating toxins from the body. I often take it with zeolite when I feel like cleaning out. I also used it in mega doses when I had my amalgam dental fillings removed. This involved mercury extraction, so it was perfect detoxifier.
It contains high amounts of protein, but I don't prefer to eat it alone because it has a stronger taste than blue gree algae or spirulina.
Chlorella is one of the algaes most widely studied for it's many health benefits. It contains substances that sustain the methylation cycle, which is directly involved in the modification of heavy metals.
Ghlutathione and methyl-donors play an important part in detoxification, protecting cells with antioxidant properties and the elimination of free radicals.
Health Benefits of Chlorella Algae:
Provides a buffer against environmental pollutants
Helps rebalance natural body ecology, eliminates molds
Restores and rebuilds tissue
Increasing your ability to take in oxygen
Frees the body of toxins and purifies the blood
Regulates blood pressure
Works to clean out the liver and colon
It is my belief that cleaning up toxins in the body is the first step to cleaning up toxins in the thoughts, emotions and the planet itself. Eating green food is part of the "green" movement to restore balance and harmony from the inside out!
Boosts Immune System!
Chlorella-algae fights off bacteria, parasites, viruses and tumors through it's ability to enhance T-cell action. In scientific research it has been shown to increase the production of Interferons (INF's), a glyco-protein, known to be a powerful shield against various cancers.
It is important to provide the body with an additional defense mechanism as we learn to adapt to environmental changes and conditions.
We are learning as a society to provide renewable and sustainable resources, but until we have perfected this human mishap, it is necessary to focus on boosting the immune system to optimum levels with foods like the green algaes. In this way, we can reach levels of superhealth and achieve greater things and better world!
Digestive Aid!
This algae also possesses the ability to deliver enzymes, such as pepsin and chlorophyllase, which aid in healthy digestion. In addition, it supports the growth of friendly flora in the intestinal tract providing colon health and balance.
Earl Mindells says:
"Chlorella has been touted as the perfect whole food. Aside from being a complete protein, containing all the B vitamins, Vit E and Vit C and the major minerals, it has been found to improve digestion, improve immune system, detoxify the body, accelerate healing, protect against radiation, aid in the prevention of degenerative disease, help in treatment of Candida albicans, relieve arthritis pain, and because of its nutritional content, aid in the success of numerous weight loss programs." Vitamin Bible
How to Use:
Chlorella is often found in tablet or powdered form. For mercury/heavy metal excretion, it is recommended that 50 tablets be consumed daily for 2 weeks. Make sure to get organic, open cell wall powder or tablets. It is the only absorbable form of this algae.
It has been used in many cultures as in a food source and today stands as the most widely used algae around the world.
