Chlorella is a green single-celled microalgae found in fresh water. It is a source of naturally-occurring chlorophyll along with vitamin C, B vitamins, carotenoids, iron and protein.

This specific algae is considered beneficial in helping cleanse the blood as well as protecting against diabetes, arthritis and cancer. Recent studies point toward chlorella to support fibromyalgia, high blood pressure/cholesterol management and bacterial/viral conditions. Some research indicates it may be helpful in boosting energy, improving digestive function and minimizing depression.

Spirulina is a blue-green algae found in both salt and fresh water. In contrast to chlorella, it is readily digestible without processing and offers a higher level of the beneficial Omega-6, Gamma Linoleic Acid, along with B6, folate and copper. Its specific benefits include anti-microbial support for gut flora and antioxidant functions that support increased endurance, organ protection from lead exposure and assistance with skin repair.
