Chlorella Tablets: Everything You Need To Know

With powerful antioxidant benefits that delivers radiant, youthful skin, enhanced brain function and a supercharged immune system, superfood chlorella was the first whole-food to fuel astronauts in space. Not only is it rich in essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients, but it’s vegan, high in protein, low in calories, and a completely sustainable source of essential omega-3 fatty acids. Learn all about why this algae-derived superfood could be the best healthy addition to your morning routine!

Providing immune and recovery support, detoxification, radiant skin, and boosted energy levels, Nanno Phi’s Premium Chlorella Tablets are the superfood you need to add to your morning routine. 

Packed full of good-for-you vitamins and minerals, and one of the highest concentrations of chlorophyll in any plant, Premium Chlorella Tablets are a high-quality vegan protein that is organic, sustainable, and additive-free. Its extreme nutrient density meant that it was the first whole-food that was taken into space so we mean it when we say, it’s out-of-this-world good – the perfect level of nutrition for daily consumption. 

Why You Need It

First, a lesson on chlorella. Chlorella is tiny, single-cell algae
that live in freshwater ponds and lakes. To create the chlorella
tablets, the algae is dried and crushed down into tablets. The reason
they’re a superfood, aka super good for you, is that they boast a long
list of vitamins and minerals that support your health. It contains
50-60% protein (twice as much as spinach!) and all nine essential amino
acids, omega 3, lutein – a carotenoid that’s great for eye health,
vitamin K, calcium, potassium, vitamin C, iron, zinc, magnesium, vitamin
B12 and phytonutrient chlorophyll (which gives it it’s vivid
green color.) You can take all of these vitamins and minerals separately
with different supplements or you can get your fix in one, easy-to-take
green-hued supplement with Premium Chlorella Tablets. 

You might
remember chlorophyll from your school science lessons. It’s the green
pigment plants use to make energy from sunlight and thought by many to
rid the body of toxins when consumed. Nowadays, millions of people take
it in Japan – similar to how we take vitamin C, and its uptake is only
increasing as its wellbeing benefits reach far and wide.  

Algae
supplements are having a moment. Many of us are looking for more ways to
be sustainable as well as a natural focus on the ocean thanks to how
the global climate crisis is affecting marine life – we all want to
learn more about what’s beneath the surface while discovering sources of
protein that don’t come from animals or fish, and algae-derived Premium
Chlorella Tablets are the sustainable option.  

We can’t argue
with the benefits of their high omega-3 levels either. Omega-3 fatty
acids are vital for our health to support cardiovascular function,
nervous system health, immunity, memory and concentration, mood, and
blood sugar control. Our body doesn’t naturally produce omega-3 so it’s
essential to gain the important nutrients through diet or supplements. 

Sourcing
omega-3 from fish and krill oils are popular but are increasingly
unsustainable and problematic because of their levels of toxicity due to
heavy metals and pesticides. In comparison, algae omega-3 are a more
sustainable source of DHA and EPA, the important fatty acids we need.

How It Works

Chlorella has a whole host of juicy
benefits including a natural detoxifier that supports your immune
system, helps to slow down skin aging and therefore boosts
luminosity, and aids weight loss. In a Korean study, 51 healthy adults
were given 5g of chlorella a day for eight weeks. At the end of the
trial, their bodies had increased levels of immune proteins known to
defend against bacteria.  

They’re also known for their
antioxidant and anti-aging benefits. Chlorella is shown to have an
ability to bind to harmful heavy metals in the body, which are then
flushed out in natural waste, aiding the detoxification of toxins in the
body to support better health. 

These antioxidant-rich benefits
mean that they could protect against damaging free radicals caused by
pollution and other environmental aggressors, and which
can ultimately lead to aging skin. In a study, smokers who took 6g of
the micro-algae had 44% more antioxidant vitamin C in their blood than
those who took a placebo. A tablet a day for enhanced youth and
radiance? Yes, please! 

In another study, chlorella helped to
shrink fat cells and block the production of new ones, plus it was found
to reduce the levels of lipids (fats) in blood serum, meaning it could
help with weight loss.

Why It’s Unique

Solidifying it as a superfood, the International Space Station said,
“Astronauts on future long-duration spaceflight missions to the Moon and
Mars could rely on microalgae to supply essentials including food,
water, and oxygen.” 

Its name, chlorella, actually originates from
the Greek word for ‘green’, a reference to its vivid color. Its
high-protein, low-calorie, nutrient-dense make-up means that Premium
Chlorella Tablets are fast becoming one of the easiest ways to get all
the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals you need to boost your immunity
and antioxidant levels for better health and glowing skin. If it’s good enough to fuel astronauts, it’s good enough for us.
