Chlorella and Spirulina are species of algae (Chlorella vulgaris and Arthrospira platensis). They are two of the most complete foods in existence. Excellent sources of protein, they provide carbohydrate and broad-spectrum vitamins, plus a wide range of minerals and enzymes. Both products, but especially Spirulina, have a high antioxidant content. As many people supplement their diets with both Chlorella and Spirulina, we have combined them equally in one convenient capsule. Both Chlorella and Spirulina are also regarded as highly useful general dietary supplements that provide broad support for a healthy diet. They are justifiably popular among people with active lifestyles, thanks to their high protein content. Chlorella and Spirulina together pack a significant arsenal of vitamins, including Vitamins A, C, E B9, B12 and K. Minerals are another key component, and include Calcium, Iron, Phosphorous, Potassium and Sodium. Spirulina is one of Earths oldest life forms, an algae. It provides a huge range of nutrition and has been enjoyed for centuries by several Asian cultures. Modern science has found that it is of Rainforest Foods Chlorella and Spirulina are grown organically on an island in the South China Sea. Laboratory-cultivated batches grow and multiply by photosynthesis in cultivation ponds containing filtered natural water. Once they have reached the required density the products are harvested. They are dried by a process known as spray evaporation, which retains virtually all the available nutritional value while rendering the product into powder form. Next, the tough cell wall of the Chlorella is broken. While this is an aid to detoxification as it binds toxins to it during digestion, it also creates a barrier which reduces the amount of nutrients available from within the cell. The cell wall-breaking process does not damage the contents, but does make them bio-available. Spirulina is the name given to Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima, strains of spiral-shaped algae that flourish in subtropical and tropical waters. It is referred to as a blue-green algae, thanks to the presence of chlorophyll and phycocyanin. Spirulina has amazing nutritional characteristics. Its main ingredient is protein, which typically forms around 60-70% of the product. It contains all eight of the essential amino acids those that our body cannot manufacture for itself and that we must obtain from our food making it a useful protein source for vegetarians. This is reinforced by the presence of important vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin B12 (often lacking in a vegetarian diet), Vitamin A, B-1, B-2, and B-6, Iron, Calcium and antioxidant compounds. Spirulina is also rich in other important phytonutrients, enzymes and trace elements. It provides Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, including Linoleic acid and Gamma-linolenic acid. Spirulina is a good, basic support to a healthy diet. This bottle contains 180 capsules. Each capsule contains 200mg of organic broken cell-wall Chlorella powder (Chlorella vulgaris) and 200mg of organic Spirulina powder (Arthrospira platensis). This product is Vegan Society certified, Soil Association Organic Certified and for every pack sold Rainforest Foods will donate funds to Rainforest Concern to purchase one square meter of cloud forest to expand the Neblina Reserve in Ecuador. Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris) is a blue-green algae, regarded as one of the world's most complete foods. It is best-known as a popular basis to detoxification programmes. However, it is increasingly regarded as a useful general dietary supplement that provides broad support for a healthy diet. Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a strain of spiral blue-green algae that contains a wide range of nutrients and flourishes in subtropical and tropical waters. Spirulina occurs naturally in South America, where it was harvested from high-altitude lakes by the Aztecs. There is a tradition of harvesting Spirulina in central Africa, and it remains a staple food in several Asian cuisines. Some notable components of Chlorella and Spirulina are Chlorophyll, Chlorella Growth Factor and Phycocyanin. Chlorella contains Vitamins A, B12 and D and minerals which include Iodine, Iron, Manganese and Phosphorous. Spirulina contains Vitamins A, B3, B12, and E and minerals which include Chromium, Iodine, Iron, Manganese and Phosphorous. One dilemma faced by people considering adding Chlorella or Spirulina to their diets is which product to choose. To solve this, we have combined them equally in one capsule. PRODUCTION: Rainforest Foods Chlorella and Spirulina are produced organically on an island in the South China Sea using photosynthesis, the natural process by which plants absorb energy from sunlight. Batches of algae grow, multiplying naturally and rapidly in pools of pure water. They are harvested when they reach the required density. Once harvested, the Spirulina is dried and milled to powder. A Chlorella cell has a tough outer wall. While the cell wall is an aid to detoxification as it binds toxins to it as we digest the Chlorella, it also creates a barrier which reduces the amount of nutrients available from within the cell. Our Chlorella is a type known as 'broken cell wall Chlorella'. After harvesting, the Chlorella cell walls are broken by a high-impact jet spray process before the Chlorella is dried and milled to powder. The cell wall-breaking process does not damage the contents, but does make them more available for absorption.
