Dear steemit friends !

Do you know the spirulina close cousin: CHLORELLA?

It is a single-cell freshwater algae. And you know what? It has the capacity to reproduce eight times a day! This makes it a sustainable nutrient source.

Chlorella grows in large freshwater ponds. It is dried and treated to makes it safe for humans digestion.
Like spirulina, you can take Chlorella in tablet form or powder form.

Apparently this superfood has existed for two billion years already. However, it wasn’t discovered until the nineteenth century. Its discovery is all thanks to Dutch microbiologist Dr. Beijnerink.
It was first used during World War I by the Germans as a protein source. After, in the 1920s, the Japanese cultivated a pure culture of Chlorella. After the Second World War, the United States, Japan, and Germany all conducted cooperative studies on the algae.

This algea is ranked of the top 10 healthy foods in the world. I will give you 5 reasons to consume chlorella every day!

1- Boosts Your Brain

Chlorella is a good source of vitamin B12 and magnesium.

Vitamin B12 deficiency = memory loss, depression, and brain shrinkage.

Magnesium is very important for memory and learning.

Takes chlorella every day and you never run out of B12

2- Detoxifies Heavy Metals

• What are heavy metals?
  mercury, aluminum, lead, arsenic, cadmium, antimony, silver, barium, beryllium, bismuth, tin, nickel, platinum, thallium.

• Where are they?
  in food, infant milk, medicines, vaccines, energy-saving light bulbs, batteries, fertilizers, cosmetics, hair dyes, PVC plastics, old paints, old pipes, rat poisons, cigarettes, dental amalgams, insecticides, household products, water, air, etc.

Our body is smart because as long as it is possible to assume this poisoning, it will handle these foreign bodies as it can. Beyond a threshold that is specific to each one, the body will no longer be able to manage and at that time that the different symptoms will manifest.

This is the reason why it is essential to consume detox foods such as chlorella!

3- Lowers Blood Sugar and Cholesterol

Such as spirulina, taking chlorella every day (8,000 mg) can lower blood glucose levels and cholesterol and it also prevents its reabsorption into your body.

4- Relieves gastrointestinal problems

Chlorella improves the function of the intestine for a faster movement of food.

Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties treat ulcerative colitis of irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's disease.

In Japan, this super-food is traditionally used to treat gastritis, hypertension, duodenal ulcers and constipation.

5- Promotes Weight Loss

A recently published research stated that the intake of chlorella “resulted in noticeable reductions in body fat percentage” (Journal of Medicinal Food).

Chlorella (like a Spirulina), help your body to regulate hormones, improves circulation, and speeds up metabolism. So you reduce your fat and you lose weight.

Conclusion

If you need to boost and detox your health every day, chlorella is your new best friend.
In addition, it also gets rid of wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, and age spots... what else?

I take spirulina and chlorella every day to stay fit and train better. My friends, don't forget that doing physical exercise is necessary for your body and your mind too. 🏋. It's a good subject for a next blog... ^^
