Chlorella is a unicellular green algae, and is thought to be one of the planet’s earliest living organisms. In the Far East chlorella is known as a traditional food and has been used as an alternative medicine since ancient times. This high-protein microalgae, which grows in fresh water, has a complete chain of essential amino acids and is a good source of vitamins and minerals. Naturya Organic Chlorella Powder has a broken cell wall, to allow maximum absorption of chlorella’s nutrients.
Chlorella is generally enjoyed in drink form, perhaps most commonly stirred into a glass of fruit juice. It can also be taken with water or mixed into a smoothie.
 
Chlorella is a flexible ingredient and a great addition to salad dressings or pasta sauces. A popular option is to include chlorella in a home-made soup (or, if you’re feeling lazy, simply stir it into a ready-made soup!).
 
The options for chlorella as an ingredient really are boundless; include it in dips, mashed potatoes, casseroles or anything else that takes your fancy. If in doubt, just throw some chlorella into your next stir fry!
