"Living Factory" of Nutrition from the Orient
One of the oldest forms of life on earth - some two billion years old - is the singe celled, fresh-water, green algae called Chlorella. Chlorella is in effect a super-efficient "living factory" that produces within itself an amazing abundance of all-important nutrients.
- Chlorella is over 60% pure protein by weight, and is particularly rich in essential amino acids like L-Lysine & L-Phenylalanine which are poorly represented in vegetarian diets.
- Chlorella is extremely rich in Chlorophyll, the green plant pigment considered by many natural health practitioners to be a versatile detoxifier and colon cleanser. Chlorella averages two-and-a-half percent Chlorophyll (compared to 0.76% for Spirulina and only 0.2% for Alfalfa)
- Chlorella is a rich source of the Branched Chain Amino Acids - L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, & L-Valine- utilized by many athletes for maximum muscle building repair, and energy.
- Chlorella contains RNA and DNA - the nucleic acids governing cell growth, reproduction, and repair - at a level 17 times higher than the sardine, previous "king" of high RNA/DNA foods.
- Chlorella's unique CGF (Chlorella Growth Factor) has been shown in published scientific research to be powerful in promoting rapid, healthy growth in children and animals.
A Treasure-House of Micro-Nutrients
Chlorella is also a rich storehouse of many essential nutrients needed for optimum health, including over 20 vitamins and minerals. It is a very rich source of Iron: three grams of Chlorella (only 13 calories' worth) provide 5 mg of Iron (compared to 6 mg Iron coming from 1000 calories of the typical American diet!) Three grams of Chlorella also provides 2.2 mg of Zinc (like Iron, its USRDA is 15 mg).
Chlorella also is one of the few vegetarian foods containing lots of Vitamin B12, so important for nerve health, red blood cell formation, and energy production (3 grams of Chlorella give us over 100% of the RDA for B12). Chlorella is a good source of natural Beta Carotene, the plant Vitamin A precursor and a potent antioxidant (3 grams of Chlorella giving half our Vitamin A RDA).
The Ultimate "Superfood" for Health
The amazing "Chlorella Story" only begins with this treasure trove of nutrient wealth stored in the heart of this mighty micro-algae. Over 800 published scientific journal articles have established Chlorella as totally non-toxic, yet possessing a variety of health-promoting properties.
In Japan, there is widespread concern over low-level chemical, heavy-metal, and radioactive poisoning. Pioneering Chlorella research there has found powerful detoxifying action of the cell wall fragments. Various polysaccharide compounds in the cell wall fragments have been shown to combine with a broad range of toxins, including the toxic heavy metals mercury and cadmium, radioactive uranium, the pesticide chlordecone, the toxic herbicide dioxin, and the PCBs. Once these poisons are combined with the cell wall fragments of Chlorella, they are rendered non-absorbable by the body and are harmlessly excreted through bowel movements.
Thus Chlorella may offer some protection against the growing burdens of air, water, food and industrial pollution to which Americans are now subjected. These same cell wall fragments also provide an excellent source of fiber, so deficient in "fast food" diets. Chlorella fragments are also powerful stimulators of intestinal peristalsis, the rhythmic muscular contractions which move food and feces through the intestines. In fact, some find this bowel-toning action so effective that they find it advisable to start with small doses and work up gradually to higher Chlorella intakes. Source: Source Naturals
