ORGANIC CHLORELLA Blue-Green Algae
ORGANIC CHLORELLA BLUE-GREEN ALGAE - Broken Cell
ORGANIC CHLORELLA is part the 7 BASICS™ formula and the entire 7 BASICS™ formula is in EVEREST Earth & Sea Formula ™ Organic Chlorella is also part of Natural Biology's 4 GRAMS ™ Natural Biology incorporates Organic Chlorella and Organic Spirulina into all multi-nutritional products to encourage a natural state of vibrant health.
Nutritional Composition
Our Organic Chlorella has no additives or fillers of any kind. It is a pure extract that has been tested to contain at least 50% iron and 18 different amino acids. It also contains nine major vitamins, including A, C, E, K, B1-B3, B6, and B12. It also has a variety of acids, nutrients, and minerals vital for maintaining good health, such as Potassium, Pantothenic acid, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc and Sodium. The chlorophyll present in this supplement, which is chemically very similar to the structure of human blood cells, may provide added benefits.
This algae is believed to be about 2 billion years old and was one of the first plants to have anything that could be called a defined nucleus in its cellular structure. Despite how prevalent it is, it was not actually discovered until the 19th century. It was late in the 1800s when it was discovered by the Dutch. After its discovery, it was researched for possible use as a source of protein. Though it was regarded as a possible food source and had sufficient nutritional properties, cultivating it in order to feed the masses after the food shortage and population boom, which took place shortly after the end of WWII, was determined to be uneconomic overall. Though these pursuits were abandoned, it was still cultivated for other specific uses, and more research resulted in more uses being discovered for this algae.
Chlorella is small enough to be considered microorganisms, and each individual microorganism contains the basic structure of a cell, including a nucleus, mitochondria, cell walls made up of cellulose for protection and to hold these components together along with starch grains and chloroplasts which are present in the cellular structure of most plants.
Why is Chlorella Gaining Scientific Recognition
The popularity of Chlorella Algae still endures despite how old and difficult to cultivate it is. Why is this? This has to do with the adaptive history of Chlorella Algae. Because it is a freshwater plant, it had to adapt to survive periodic droughts that were very much a reality in the erratic weather patterns of the past 2 billion years. Therefore, it developed a fibrous shell around it which had two different important characteristics. It first allowed the cellular structure of the algae to be maintained as long as possible until the algae had been dried out beyond all hope. Secondly, and most importantly, this shell was used to absorb nutrients in the surrounding water to keep feeding the cell for as long as possible. This happened until the water was totally gone so that when the water returns, it is able to easily bounce back to full recovery.
It is this property that makes Chlorella Algae so useful to humans. This particular powder is called 'Chlorella Algae Broken Cell' because the outer shell has been cracked. This allows the nutrients within the algae to be more effectively absorbed while still providing the same benefits of the outer shell to the human body and digestive tract.
Health Benefits Provided By Chlorella Blue-Green Algae
One of the most prominent health benefits of Chlorella Algae lies in its ability to detoxify the digestive tract. The outer shell of the Chlorella absorbs all of the toxic agents that are present in the digestive tract and detoxifies the intestines as it passes through. Not only that, but the insides of the algae are chock full of nutrients including Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Folic acid, Vitamin B2, Manganese, and Iodine.
Chlorella Algae helps to open up the arteries, increasing blood flow, and therefore increasing the amount of oxygen that makes it to muscle tissue and all of the important areas. It also synthesizes red blood cells to stimulate creation of new blood and the production of microscopic plant cultures within the intestine. These will continue to produce similar effects to Chlorella Algae without having to take the supplement all the time.
