Chlorella BIO by Vitals

Organic chlorella with high nutrient density

Chlorella Organic from Vitals provides 500 mg pure chlorella per tablet without additives.

This chlorella grows according to organic aquaculture standards. Production uses a sustainable method with natural sunlight and no synthetic substances during cultivation.

During production the cell wall breaks. This step helps the body absorb the nutrients in chlorella.

Chlorella contains a high concentration of nutrients such as chlorophyll, vitamin B12, and vitamin D2. For this reason many people view chlorella as a superfood.

Rich in chlorophyll and key nutrients

Chlorella vulgaris is a single-celled green microalga that grows in freshwater. Microalgae use sunlight and CO2 efficiently for photosynthesis, which explains their rapid growth.

During photosynthesis the alga forms basic compounds. It then converts these into more complex molecules such as phytonutrients and vitamins.

Superfoods are natural foods with a high nutritional value. They contain concentrated amounts of beneficial nutrients.

Chlorella fits this description well. It naturally provides chlorophyll, vitamin D2, and biologically active vitamin B12.

This last point is notable because plant sources of vitamin B12 usually lack biological activity for humans. Chlorella also supplies folate and lutein, a carotenoid.

Nutrient levels in Chlorella Organic may vary between harvests because the nutrients come from natural sources. Therefore the packaging cannot list exact amounts. The table below shows typical levels of these nutrients.

Protection against external influences

Industrial and technological progress exposes the environment to various chemical substances. Some of these substances can enter the human body.

Antioxidants present in chlorella help protect cells against oxidative stress caused by these external influences.

Chlorella also supports immune function. It contributes to the activity of specialized cells involved in a normal and balanced immune response.

Differences between chlorella and spirulina

Another microalga used in supplements is spirulina. The name spirulina refers to spiral-shaped microorganisms called Arthrospira.

Although spirulina often appears in discussions about algae, it is technically a bacterium. This explains why spirulina does not require cell wall breaking for nutrient absorption.

Bacteria of the Arthrospira genus lack the tough cell walls found in algae such as chlorella.

The nutrient composition also differs. Spirulina contains more protein, while chlorella provides more chlorophyll, folate, vitamin D2, and biologically active vitamin B12.

The typical uses differ as well. Chlorella is often chosen for its cell-protective properties, while spirulina is popular for supporting energy levels and vitality.
