Thumbs up Chlorella - Boost Immunity and Detox

I've been using Chlorella on a daily basis, here's an article on some of its benefits.

Quote:
Chlorella contains an extraordinarily high nutrient density. This is due to the rich amount of trace minerals, chlorophyll, and anti-oxidant phytonutrients that have allowed it to adapt to harsh environments over many years. It also contains many very unique elements such as the carotenoid sporopollenin and the plant based anti-biotic chlorellan.

Chlorella is the most potent source of pure chlorophyll. Chlorophyll helps purify the blood and allows the body to utilize oxygen more efficiently. It also supports the elimination of many toxins such as molds and industrial pollutants. Chlorophyll provides magnesium to help support the brain and nervous system and to protect against toxic accumulation in the central nervous system.

Chlorophyll activates the PPAR receptor within the nucleus of the cell. This receptor helps transcribe and code certain DNA factors that function to open the cell membrane. This is essential for cellular detoxification and the normalization of insulin resistance. Additionally, chlorella contains zinc, GLA and other nutrients necessary for healthy cell membranes and insulin receptor sites.

Unique Phytonutrients

Chlorella contains the phytonutrient sporopollenin. Sporopollenin is more effective at binding neurotoxic debris than any other natural substance. It has the ability to detox the body from biotoxins such as tuberculosis, lyme disease, tetanus toxins and mold. It also filters out xenobiotics such as phytates, dioxins, pesticides, & industrial waste. It can bind and eliminate heavy metals like mercury, lead, nickel & aluminum. It also pulls out food preservatives, artificial flavorings & colorings.

Chlorella turns on the natural detoxification switch by increasing intracellular reduced glutathione. Glutathione functions to scavenge free radicals and renew the anti-oxidant properties of vitamin C & E. Low glutathione levels significantly reduce the body's ability to adapt to stress and push toxins out of cells. As glutathione increases the cells begin to remove toxic debris.

Chlorella contains a fibrous mucopolysaccharide membrane wall that naturally binds to toxins. This outer wall should be slightly cracked before consumption in order to make the nutritional benefits of chlorella more bioavailable.
