Backed by 3 of the World’s Most Rigid Organic Certifications
We are proud to offer you one of the purest sources of organic chlorella in the world. Our Organic Chlorella is farmed following the same rigid methods as our extremely popular organic spirulina.
With 3 organic certifications, including USDA, Naturland, and EU organic certification, you can be assured our chlorella has been tested and certified by every significant organic certification and standard. Our Chlorella also meets all major food standards, including Vegan, Raw & Halal. It is also delivered in a broken cell-wall form, which ensures optimal nutrient availability and assimilation.
3rd-Party Tested for Over 130 Toxins and Contaminants
Our Chlorella is 3rd-party tested by IMO for the presence of over 130+ possible contaminants including, heavy metals, yeast, mold, E. Coli, BMAA, Microcystin, Pheophorbide, irradiation, chemical treatment, GMO’s, solvents, binders, soy, and gelatin. Throughout the entire farming process, our Chlorella and Spirulina are continually tested and monitored for the presence of any toxins and contaminants.

Sun-Grown Chlorella
Chlorella grown in direct sunlight is shown to be nutritionally superior with a higher concentration of key nutrients like CGF. Nothing can replace sunlight. It has been essential to Chlorella's growth for billions of years, and the photosynthesis from the sun produces a greater abundance of essential nutrients. Man-made processes that grow chlorella in tanks, such as fermented chlorella, are all marketing hype – it is easier and cheaper to grow chlorella in tanks, so it is merely a shortcut. These processes replace sunlight with sugar…. Sunlight vs. Sugar? There is no comparison.
The World’s Most Rigid Organic Certification
The German Naturland organic certification is the most stringent in the world. It requires a 100% vegan and sustainable farming process. This means only plant-based ingredients and fertilizers can be used throughout the entire farming process. Our Chlorella is certified by Naturland, thus assuring an entirely vegan and sustainable farming practice is used to produce our Chlorella.
Our blue-green algae source is grown in the remote countryside of South India away from all industrial, agricultural, and human settlements that are responsible for contaminating and polluting crops. The farm spreads over 130 acres with a clean source of groundwater and the conducive environment of 86°F to 102°F (30°C to 39°C) temperatures, low rainfall, low humidity, and abundant sunlight throughout the year providing a thriving atmosphere for optimal growth.
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, take 4 tablets daily with or without food.
Yes, both are 100% non-gmo, and we only use organic and GMP certified facilities to handle and produce our spirulina and chlorella.
Our spirulina and chlorella do not contain any cyanotoxins. It is tested extensively for all algae toxins and environmental contaminants such as microcystins, heavy metals, and PAHs. Unlike other blue-green algae used in health supplements, our spirulina is not grown in natural lakes. It is grown in a 100% controlled environment, enabling us to eliminate all toxins and contaminants commonly found in wild-grown blue-green algae. We continually test and monitor the health of our spirulina throughout every phase of the cultivation process.
Both spirulina and chlorella are 100% soy and gluten-free, 100% organic, and zero other additives or ingredients.
Our spirulina or chlorella are not freeze-dried. We use a patented spray drying process that maintains low temperatures, preserving the products' raw bioactive components.

You are not taking too much. Ideally, you would want to take 4 tablets of each per day. The nausea is rare, but here are some recommendations that may help.
First, possibly split up the serving to 2 servings per day; 2 spirulina and 2 chlorella tablets. Make sure to take both servings with food. Your gut may be having difficulty with digestion, and if that's the case, taking the tablets with food may help with the digestion. When you eat a meal, your body produces a high number of digestive enzymes. You may need additional digestive help. Also, are you taking probiotics? Probiotics are very beneficial for gut health to help the body with nutrient assimilation. If your gut bacteria is low, it may be difficult for your body to absorb and assimilate all of the nutrients.
If the issue persists, consider reducing your serving to 2 tablets of each per day. The following week increase to 3 and the next week back up to 4. But first, try taking it with larger meals.
The body is never fully detoxified as it is continually coming in contact with external toxins from things like cleaning supplies or even heavy metals that are prevalent in produce. Both spirulina and chlorella are beneficial for continual detoxification. If you want to do a large-scale flush, consider a full detox. During full detoxes, the body does a purge, and the body needs to get in the purge state to really expel large amounts of toxins. The spirulina and chlorella are fantastic to take during this process because they will assist the body in continuously expelling toxins. It is recommended to do a full detox every 6 months to purge the body of large amounts of toxins, and then every day after that, continually take actions to expel toxins you come in contact with daily. The daily maintenance is where spirulina and chlorella come in.
Both spirulina and chlorella are very beneficial to your long-term health. As a cancer survivor, we recommend keeping spirulina and chlorella in your diet for the rest of your life. Spirulina, in particular, raises both the content and activity of "natural killer cells," which are the cells in the body that target and destroy tumors or cancer cells. Chlorella improves the health of the cells and DNA, which are beneficial for cancer prevention.
The vitamin K content in spirulina and chlorella or other species of micro-algae is not very significant. Cruciferous vegetables and grasses, such as wheatgrass and barley grass, have significant vitamin K levels. If you are looking for a supplement with vitamin K, we offer organic wheatgrass juice powder and barley grass juice powder, both of which have very high vitamin K levels.
Spirulina and chlorella both compliment each other very well, and it is beneficial to take both. They are two different species of algae, so their nutrient content and various health properties differ. It is similar to the importance of eating both Spinach and Kale. Spirulina is more nutrient-dense. We often consider it mother nature's vitamin, whereas chlorella is extremely good for detoxification and cellular health. Both have similar benefits such as cardiovascular health, anti-aging, etc... But taking both in no way is overkill. They complement each other.
Both species are virtually identical. There are brands of chlorella pyrenoidosa that claim the species is more superior, but there is no data to show this. What is most important is whether the chlorella is grown using sunlight or inside of an enclosed reactor. Our chlorella is sun-grown following the best organic farming standards, leading to the highest content and growth of chlorella growth factor (CGF). CGF is the unique peptide complex unique to chlorella that delivers its potent cellular health, regeneration, and detoxification benefits. Both species are identical, and whether it's sun-grown or not is what influences its CGF content, improving detoxification properties.
There are trace levels of iodine in chlorella, but not significant levels. The algae species Kelp is actually a much more potent source of iodine.
Our organic chlorella has uniquely larger cells resulting in a weak cell wall. The cell walls are cracked during regular processing, centrifuging, and spray-drying of the organic chlorella culture. This helps to avoid harsh mechanical cracking, resulting in a stable and bioavailable organic chlorella.
The organic chlorella is dried using Spar drying as a wet slurry. The chlorella is exposed in this drying process for only a few seconds and heated under 50° celsius.
For chlorella tablets, we recommend 2 tablets per day for ages 4 – 12, and for ages 12 and up, 4 tablets (standard adult serving) per day. We do not recommend giving it to children under 4-years-old because tablets can be a choking hazard.
We recommend 1 gram per day for chlorella powder for ages 2 - 12 and 3 grams (standard serving) per day for ages 12 and above.
There is 500 mg per tablet, which equates to 2 grams in the recommended serving size for 4 tablets. There is 3000 mg per 3 grams serving in our chlorella powder.
Yes, chlorella is safe and very beneficial to take through all 3 trimesters of pregnancy. When it comes to dosage, if you took chlorella before being pregnant, you can stick with the standard dosage. If you did not take chlorella before pregnancy, we recommend reducing the serving size by 50% for the first week and then moving up to standard serving size. We recommend the 50% reduction because the harmony of your body is essential during pregnancy. So we are suggesting easing into it. For example, it is shown to help clean out the digestive system. If you're a bit backed up and started taking it, you may go through a detox period.
When Not to Take It: If you have an auto-immune disorder, you'll want to consult your doctor first. Chlorella has powerful immune-boosting functions. Anyone with immune-related disorders needs to work with doctors when it comes to supplementation as the immune system concerning your health is very complex. Congratulations!
We have 20% CGF by content. We are not aware of any farms that are achieving 30% CGF, as we performed analytical testing on every major chlorella farm in the world. From our in-depth understanding of chlorella's nature, it is impossible to have CGF levels that high without manipulating farming with additives. We achieve 20% with a rigid organic vegan farming process, and the chlorella is sun-grown. Some chlorellae are grown in reactors, never getting any sunshine and living off sugar instead of sun.
The cell-wall form that is not broken is extremely strong and cannot be fully broken down in the digestive tract. For chlorella to release its storehouse of nutrition, it needs to be broken down (or cracked) for this superfood's full benefit.
