Chlorella is a single celled, fresh water algae. It is a nutritionally balanced whole food and contributes to the health and growth of human cells like no single vitamin or mineral possibly can.

Some consider it a complete food. It contains 58% protein, carbohydrates, all of the B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, minerals and rare trace minerals. It is such a good source of protein and vitamin B12 that it is recommended for vegetarians or those who cannot tolerate meat.

Chlorella also contains a significant amount of chlorophyll, which speeds the release of toxins from the bloodstream. Chlorophyll is useful for increasing the oxygenation of tissues because a molecule of chlorophyll resembles the human hemoglobin (oxygen-carrying) molecule. Finally chlorella contains high levels of the genetic material RNA and DNA. Studies show that it protects against the mutagenic nature of UV radiation. Natural health practitioners for a variety of conditions including convalescence, chemical or metal toxicity, radiation illness, malnutrition and  bad absorption recommend chlorella.

Chlorella may help:
Your body rid toxic heavy metals and pesticides.
Improve digestion and relieve constipation.
Restore a healthy pH balance.
Treat halitosis (bad breath) or body odor.
Relieve 'brain fog' and increase mental focus and concentration.
Improve energy.
Provide a wide range of nutrients.
Protect against UV rays.

Detoxification
The body has effective ways of dealing with toxins and waste products. Sometimes these pathways are not working up to speed or become blocked. The back up of waste material makes it harder for the rest of the body to function normally and ultimately leads to disease.

Since the environment in which we live makes it impossible for us to maintain a pristine lifestyle, regular cleansing is essential.

Detoxification involves dietary, supplemental and physical interventions. It usually focuses on one or more of the main organs of detoxification, the liver, kidneys, bowels, lungs or skin.

Help Detoxify Your Body Daily By:
Drinking water with a squeeze of fresh lemon, upon waking.
Taking a greens drink, daily.
Consuming natural, fresh fruit and vegetables daily.
Avoiding refined foods, sugar and processed and packaged foods.
Exercising daily.
Taking milk thistle or other cleansing herbs.
Dry Brushing the skin.
Consuming at least 8 glasses of pure water daily.
Ensuring regular bowel movements, try psyllium or flax for extra fiber.
