Chlorella is a single-celled blue-green algae that is prized for its high nutritional value. It is naturally packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals, offering a rich source of nutrients in a small amount. Our organic Chlorella powder is grown in freshwater on a small island in the South China Sea, far from any areas of contamination, and every batch undergoes rigorous testing for heavy metals and radiation to ensure purity.
Chlorella contains up to 40% protein and is known for its unique substance called Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF), which supports the overall nutritional profile of the algae. It also shares many properties with Spirulina, offering a nutrient-dense food source with a more mild taste.
Our Chlorella undergoes a specialized cracked-cell processing system, which ensures that the tough cell wall is broken down, making its nutrients bioavailable and easy to digest. Unlike other methods of processing, this technique preserves the integrity of the chlorella, resulting in a powder that is 85% digestible, certified for optimal nutritional absorption.

Further Information
Our Chlorella powder is manufactured in freshwater on a small island in the South China sea, 2000 miles away from where the unfortunate incident happened in Japan. Every batch undergoes a heavy metal test at the production facility and the UK port health authorities check for radiation for any products they deem at risk or have potential for exposure as well.
The Chlorella is produced with food-grade nutrients and without pesticides and is considered to be the finest Chlorella anywhere, renowned for its purity, digestibility, taste and CGF content. Particularly high content of chlorophyll and chlorella extract is a vital characteristic of this Chlorella.
Chlorella has a tough fibrous cell-wall which needs to be broken down during processing to ensure bioavailability of its precious nutritional contents. Not all chlorella products are effectively processed in this way, that can mean digestibility is poor at around 35-40%. Raw Living Chlorella has very high digestability as a result of a specialised cracked-cell processing system.
Our Chlorella is dried using a high-impact spray drying system - a technique to dry temperature sensitive foods, supplements and pharmaceuticals without impairing their delicate composition. The chlorella has its cell-wall ruptured by this process which makes it 85% digestable (certified), and nutritionally available to the body. The cracking of the cells in this way, rather than their pulverisation, means that the nutritious contents are not spilled. It is only once the chlorella enters the stomach that the nutrients are released, and get to work nourishing the body. This system delivers the maximum possible nutritional value and digestibility.
It's potency and purity have been rigorously tested. The Chlorella is free of toxic residues and has no chemical additives. The Chlorella powder is grown without the use of agrichemicals or pesticides, and is processed under rigid quality control and sanitation standards.
