Chlorella |
WHAT IS CHLORELLA?
Chlorella is a green single-celled freshwater alga, found to have many health benefits. Its benefits have long been acknowledged in the Far East, where it has been one of the most popular food supplements for nearly 30 years. However, it has only recently become available in the West. Chlorella measures about 2 to 10 µm in diameter, similar to human blood cells. It grows most rapidly in areas with plenty of sunlight, clean air and fresh water, and the biggest producers of Chlorella are in the Far East.
CHLORELLA - DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT
Chlorella was one of the first life forms to exist on our planet 3.5 billion years ago. It was first discovered in 1890 but only became available to consumers at the end of the 1970s when a method of breaking down the tough cell wall was found.
WHY USE CHLORELLA?
Over time, the chemicals and toxins in the food and drink we consume, and the impurities in the air we breathe, can build up in our bodies and weaken our immune system. Nature Complete Certified Organic Chlorella can naturally detoxify the body and restore your immune system to its optimum level. Chlorella is nature’s richest whole plant source of chlorophyll, DNA and RNA, and contains more than 19 amino acids, including all the essential ones. It also contains the Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF), only found in Chlorella.
THE KEY NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF CHLORELLA
Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) |
Chlorella contains the unique Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF), which helps its own cells to reproduce rapidly (four new cells every 20-24 hours) and is similarly thought to help repair damaged tissue and heal wounds in humans |
Chlorophyll |
Chlorophyll is only one molecule different from haemoglobin in human blood and is thought to help detoxify our bodies. Chlorella provides 50 times more chlorophyll than alfalfa |
Beta carotene |
It is pure vitamin A. This antioxidant aids vision in dim light |
Vitamin B 12 |
A key role in the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system, and for the formation of blood. It is one of the eight B vitamins. It is normally involved in the metabolism of every cell of the human body, especially affecting DNA synthesis and regulation, but also fatty acid metabolism and amino acid metabolism. |
Protein |
An important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood |
Iodine |
Vital for normal thyroid function |
Iron |
Helps carry oxygen throughout the body and is essential for healthy blood cells and keeps muscle healthy |
Zinc |
Helps produce new cells and enzymes and promotes the healing of wounds |
Potassium |
Helps maintain a healthy heart, lowers blood pressure |
Magnesium |
Helps turn the food we eat into energy, lowers blood pressure, keeps bones healthy and helps prevent osteoporosis |
Calcium |
Essential for strong bones and teeth, regulates muscle contraction |
Phosphorus |
Helps maintain healthy teeth and bone, also metabolic energy |
Vitamin C |
Also known as ascorbic acid, this is one of the most essential elements of any diet, and is particularly beneficial to the immune system, in helping to prevent colds and flu |
Spirulina |
WHAT IS SPIRULINA?
Spirulina is a microscopic blue-green alga, used all over the world as a popular natural food supplement. It flourishes in warm climates and alkaline water lakes, most notably in Chad, China, East Africa and South America.
SPIRULINA - DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT
Although Spirulina has a long history – algae were the first life form to exist on the earth 3.5 billion years ago and it was first discovered in Chad in the 9th Century – it only became commercially available at the beginning of the 1970s. It is currently growing in popularity in the West despite having been used for decades elsewhere in the world.
Spirulina in space
The benefits of Spirulina have now been recognised by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and the European Space Agency; they have both selected it as one of the primary foods to be cultivated during long-term space missions.
Why use Spirulina?
Do you feel like your fuel tank is running on empty, that your energy reserves are always surprisingly low? Spirulina can help give you an energy boost. Do you eat your five a day? We all know that fruit and vegetables help maintain a healthier lifestyle, but the British Nutrition Foundation’s 2004 National Diet and Nutrition Survey showed that only 13% of men and 15% of women regularly eat the recommended five portions of fruit and vegetables each day. In fact, on average, most people eat less than three per day. Spirulina is the ideal supplement if you struggle to get enough fruit and vegetables into your daily diet.
Nutrients and benefits of spirulina
Considered to be the most concentrated plant food in existence, Spirulina is a natural whole food that can help maintain a balanced diet, especially for people who do not eat enough fruit and vegetables, perhaps due to their hectic lifestyle. There is no fruit, vegetable or meat that can provide a complete protein to meet the nutritional needs of the human body, but Spirulina is 60-70% complete protein that is 95% digestible. Unlike most other algae, its unique soft cell wall is made of complex sugars and protein, which makes its many rich nutrients highly digestible to the body. A whole plant source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA), beta-carotene and chlorophyll, it contains all the essential amino acids, including essential fatty acids.
The following are some of the nutritional benefits of Spirulina
Chlorophyll |
This gives Spirulina its green colour. Chlorophyll is only one molecule different from haemoglobin in human blood and is thought to help detoxify our bodies |
Beta carotene |

GLA |
Gamma linolenic acid is an Omega-6 essential fatty acid. It is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help to relieve pain |
Iron |
Helps carry oxygen throughout the body and is essential for healthy blood cells and keeps muscle healthy |
Zinc |
Helps produce new cells and enzymes and promotes the healing of wounds |
Potassium |
Helps maintain a healthy heart, lowers blood pressure |
Magnesium |
Helps turn the food we eat into energy, lowers blood pressure, keeps bones healthy and helps prevent osteoporosis |
Calcium |
Essential for strong bones and teeth, regulates muscle contraction |
Vitamin E |
Helps to maintain healthy skin and protects cell membranes |
