Chlorella for Arthritis
Chlorella is one of the healthiest, most potent foods in existence. The name Chlorella is taken from the
Greek word "Chloros" meaning green and the Latin diminutive suffix "ella" meaning small and was named by a
Dutch biologist. A German biologist Otto Heinrich Warburg received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in
1931 for his study of Chlorella. Chlorella is nature's richest whole food source of chlorophyll, a powerful
cleanser and detoxifier for the body. Chlorella is one of the most scientifically researched foods and has many
clinically attested health benefits. Although it has yet to gain popularity in the UK, it is claimed that in Japan
Chlorella is taken regularly by 30% of the population. There Chlorella is regarded as a functional whole food,
rather than a dietary supplement.
Chlorella plays a particularly crucial role in systemic mercury elimination because the majority of mercury is
rid through stool. Once the mercury burden is lowered from the intestines, mercury from other body tissues will
more readily migrate into the intestines -- where Chlorella will effectively remove it.
A clean bloodstream, with an abundance of red blood cells to carry oxygen, is necessary to a strong
natural defense system. Chlorella's cleansing action on the bowel and other elimination channels, as well as its
protection of the liver, helps keep the blood clean.
Chlorella has been found to improve the immune system, improve digestion, detoxify the body,
accelerate healing, protect against radiation, aid in the prevention of degenerative diseases, help in treatment of
Candida Albicans, relieve arthritis pain and, because of its nutritional content, aid in the success of numerous
weight loss programs. Chlorella has also been found to have powerful anti-cancer activity.
BENEFITS OF CHLORELLA
It is to Chlorella's high chlorophyll content that many researchers and enthusiastic users attribute its multiple
health benefits. Both scientific documentation and reliable anecdotal reports indicate that Chlorella is effective
in helping to reduce the symptoms of numerous types of cancers, diabetes, low blood sugar, arthritis, AIDS,
pancreatitis, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, peptic ulcers, viral and bacterial infections, anemia, and multiple
sclerosis.
Chlorella is considered to be a first class detoxifying agent, capable of removing alcohol from the liver and
heavy metals (such as cadmium and mercury), certain pesticides, herbicides, and Polychlorbiphenyls (PCBs) from the
body's tissues.
Chlorella has been shown to have immune-enhancing effects, and to have antiviral activity against
cytomegalovirus. Antihypertensive and antihyperlipedimic activities were observed with a protein fraction derived
from Chlorella. Chlorella can also absorb toxins from the intestines, help relieve chronic constipation, favorably
alter the bacterial flora content of the bowel and eliminate intestinal gas. Chlorella is also effective in healing
skin wounds, both mild and severe.
The Chlorella algae is approximately 58 to 60 percent protein with a complete amino acid profile. It is a rich
source of chlorophyll, vitamin A and minerals. Chlorella is especially high in beta carotene, iron and zinc.
Chlorella is also an excellent source of vitamin B12 for vegetarians. In addition, research has shown that
Chlorella can bind heavy metals and other toxins and flush them out of the body during digestion. Significant
research has been done on chlorella or Chlorella growth factor.
CFG is a liquid extract from the nucleus of the algae cell, containing proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates and
nucleic acids. Many reports and clinical trials have shown that CGF and Chlorella have anti-tumor activity against
a variety of cancers and tumors.
Chlorella has been shown to have immune-enhancing effects, and to have antiviral activity against
cytomegalovirus in mice and equine encephalitis virus in horses. Antihypertensive and antihyperlipedimic activities
were observed with a protein fraction derived from Chlorella.
USES OF CHLORELLA
Chlorella helps people with poor digestion and assimilation as these micro-algae are easy to digest and absorb.
Chlorella helps to enhance poor vitality and anemia. Chlorella can be eaten as naturally refined or processed
foods. Chlorella helps in protecting the kidneys and liver. Chlorella may be helpful for people who are overweight.
Chlorella may help in boosting immune system. Chlorella reduces depleted ness & exhaust ness.
