Our Japanese chlorella powder is cultivated in concrete-lined ponds in a pristine area of Japan. This chlorella powder has a more mild algae flavor and makes a deep green brew when added to water.
Chlorella is a single celled algae that some scientists believe may be among the Earth's oldest living organisms, but it was only in the 1960's that Japanese scientists began to study chlorella as a tool of good health. Natural health enthusiasts know chlorella well as an excellent source of general nutrition. This chlorella has a cracked outer cell wall which is broken by a high impact cryogenic jet-spray process that pulverizes the algae's cell wall for enhanced digestibility.
