Chlorella - Chlorella vulgaris
(Cultivated without Chemicals & Kosher Certified) Available in 1 oz
Origin: Japan
INTRODUCTION
Our Japanese chlorella powder is cultivated in concrete-lined ponds in a pristine area of Japan. This chlorella powder has a more mild algae flavor and makes a deep green brew when added to water.
Chlorella is a single celled algae that some scintists believe may be among the Earth's oldest living organisms, but it was only in the 1960's that Japanese scientists began to study chlorella as a tool of good health. Natural health enthusiasts know chlorella well as an excellent source of general nutrition. This chlorella has a cracked outer cell wall which is broken by a high impact cryogenic jet-spray process that pulverizes the algae's cell wall for enhanced digestibility.
PARTS USED
The entire plant, dried. The cell wall is practically impenetrable and indigestible in most regards. When purchasing chlorella, make sure the outer cell wall has either been cracked or opened.
TYPICAL PREPARATIONS
The powder can be added to drinks and smoothies, or may also be made into capsules or extracts.
