Chlorella (1000 mg)
Chlorella – Loaded with Nutrients to Support Better Health
Chlorella is small green algae that are cultivated in fresh water. Discovered in the 19th century, it became the center of great interest for its potential food value after World War II. Called by some a “complete†food its use as a food source never panned out, but it has become a popular food supplement particularly in Japan and now increasingly in the United States.
Chlorella contains the highest levels of chlorophyll found in a plant source. Chlorella also contains significant amounts of protein, iron, Vitamin B12, Beta Carotene and nineteen amino acids. It is the food substance with the highest known levels of RNA and DNA. This may have implications for repairing the cell’s genetic material.
Being Studied for Numerous Benefits
Chlorella has the potential to benefit in several areas. In animal studies chlorella significantly lowered blood pressure. In at least one human study published in 2003 a noteworthy portion of participants saw a decline in blood pressure levels.
Chlorella enhances the immune system function. Scientists believe chlorella increases T-cell activity, which is important for antibody immunity, and increases macrophages. These large cells protect against infection by removing waste products, harmful microorganisms, and toxins from the blood stream. With the increase in T-cells and macrophage comes an increase in interferon. This enhances the immune system’s ability to fight viruses and bacteria.
Chlorella may also assist in maintaining lower cholesterol levels and may help speed wound healing. In a 2000 study patients with fibromyalgia experienced significant benefits after taking chlorella for two months.
High Quality Ingredients Insure Digestibility
Chlorella has a strong cell wall which cannot be adequately broken down by the human digestive system. In order to facilitate maximum absorption and benefit, the cell wall must be broken before consumption. The cell wall of Vitabase Chlorella has been broken down mechanically to aid digestibility.
