CHLORELLA - POWDERED 500 GRS ORGANIC

Although there is no scientific consensus regarding the immune effect, some authors defend that certain polysaccharides and peptides of chlorella have the ability to stimulate the immune system and produce analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. NUTRITIONAL PROPERTIES OF CHLORELLA Chlorella is rich in beta carotene. 5 g meet half of the daily needs of provitamin A, essential for the good condition of the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Beta carotene is also a powerful antioxidant. The mentioned dose provides respectively 35 and 24% of the daily needs of iron and zinc. It also contains magnesium and phosphorus in smaller proportions. Rich in proteins: the dry extract of chlorella is 58% protein, 9% polyunsaturated fat, 23% carbohydrates and 1% fiber. However, as it is consumed in small quantities, its contribution of macronutrients and energy is not very significant. A 5 g dose covers 5% of the daily protein needs. POSSIBLE SOURCE OF VITAMIN B12 Chlorella has active B12. Specifically, 9 g of Chlorella pyrenoidosa contains 21 mcg of vitamin B12. CHLORELLA IN THE KITCHEN As a complementary nutritional contribution, the powder (2 to 3 g) is added to smoothies, green juices, fruit juices, sauces or salad dressings, for example. Within a therapeutic diet, a dessert spoonful (5 g) is taken in a glass of water, three times a day (on an empty stomach and after meals, or before if a satiating effect is sought). Chlorella is thus an original ingredient that enriches recipes with flavor, color, nutrients and unique substances that support health.
