Chlorella (Chlorella) are a type of green algae. They were discovered by the British microbiologist Martinus Willem Bayerink in 1890. Due to the high content of proteins, vitamins and other nutrients, these algae have been declared a superfood.
They are rich in Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, iodine, iron, magnesium, zinc, calcium and others. In addition, they are one of the most powerful antioxidants in the world and protect cells in the human body from damage.
Many people use Chlorella, also known as spirulina, as a potential source of food and energy, as its photosynthetic efficiency can theoretically reach 8% compared to other highly efficient crops such as sugar cane.
In the early 1950s Chlorella is seen as a new and promising main source of food and as a possible solution to the then world famine crisis. People saw seaweed as a way to end this crisis by providing large quantities of high-quality food at a relatively low price.
Chlorella is consumed as a health supplement mainly in the United States and Canada and as a dietary supplement in Japan. Algae have a number of beneficial effects on health, including the ability to treat cancer.
They have the ability to detoxify, strengthen the immune system, enhance cell growth and renewal, speed up metabolism and much more.
In our country it can be found and ordered as an additive of powder or tablets.
