Chlorella- one algae for all problems |
|
Chlorella is a single-celled, rounded green algae.
It grows in fresh water, and it was created about two and a half billion years ago, and is among the oldest forms of life on Earth.
Today, this plant is known as a superfood or dietary supplement of extraordinary nutritional value.
It is one of the few edible species of aquatic algae.
It is an exceptional source of protein because in dried form it consists of 45% protein and is great for vegetarians, athletes and people suffering from obesity.
It is a quality source of amino acids, magnesium, iron and trace minerals. It contains all the B-vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E and beta-carotene. It also has high fiber content.
This alga is one of the fastest growing plants on earth and the most powerful source of pure chlorophyll that are available to us.
Chlorophyll is identical to human blood, except the central element – in blood it is iron, while in chlorophyll the central element is magnesium.
Therefore, chlorella is just perfect for our health.
Protects against radiation and heavy metals
The main reason for the popularity of chlorella lies in its power of detoxifying the body.
Russian researchers have found that this algae effectively removes heavy metals from the body. Also, taking chlorella reduces tissue damage caused by such poisoning.
Heavy metals are usually difficult to release from the body system.
All people with amalgam dental fillings have heavy metals in their bodies, those who work in certain industries, which have received certain vaccine or were exposed to radiation.
Most people are partially poisoned by heavy metals, because they are impossible to avoid, since they are everywhere: in the environment, in the food.
The presence of heavy metals in the body is associated with many diseases.
For example, a Japanese study has proved that all cancerous cells contain mercury.
Other researchers have linked the presence of heavy metals in the body with some forms of dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
Chlorella is a great help in removing toxins, radiation and heavy metals. This alga contains unique phytonutrients that bind to toxins and remove them from the body.
