2022-08-19 20:18:34 By : Mr. Joe Liu

Have you heard of chlorella?This freshwater algae is an amazing source of many important nutrients and is even considered a superfood.That is why you can come across food supplements that contain chlorella more and more often.If you want to support your health and reap the benefits that this algae offers, pay close attention to which product you choose.There are more and more of them on the market, but not all of them are really of high quality.If you don't know how to choose, our ranking will help you.We have listed the very best products with chlorella in it.All of them have a completely pure composition and do not contain any unnecessary additives.Which products have earned our imaginary seal of quality?Pure Chlorella BIO from BrainMax was ranked first in our ranking.This is chlorella in powder form, which you can add to your favorite smoothie or even a spread.The advantage is the first-class quality and also a great ratio between the price and the size of the package.About the manufacturer: The Czech brand BrainMax was created with the aim of producing food supplements that will be based on the latest scientific knowledge and at the same time provide the natural power of nature.The company focuses on supplements that support brain function and productivity.Therefore, in its offer we can find high-quality vitamins, minerals or even less common products such as glasses against blue light.For example, the Sleep Faster sleep improvement complex from the BrainMax workshop has proven itself to us, but you could also find other products of this brand in our ranking of the best kickers.Composition and recommended dosage:Only pure chlorella vulgaris powder can be found in the BrainMax Pure Chlorella BIO package.This is specifically chlorella from China, which is generally considered to be the most polluted due to the poor air quality in mainland China.However, if we do not know the specific place of origin, it is difficult to estimate the pollution status of this particular product.BrainMax brand chlorella has gone through a process of gently disrupting the cell wall to make it digestible for the human body.The manufacturer recommends dosing one teaspoon per day, which corresponds to about 4 grams of powder.Such an amount corresponds to the standard in which the use of chlorella usually varies.Final evaluation: Pure Chlorella BIO from BrainMax is a very high-quality product, where great emphasis is placed on gentle processing.This is the most important aspect for the end customer.The origin of chlorella can be somewhat doubtful, but as I wrote before, unless we know the specific place where the algae was grown, it is difficult to draw any conclusions.In terms of price, BrainMax's chlorella performs very well compared to the competition and is almost the best value for money.This is a really big plus considering the high quality of the product.BIO Chlorella from the MedPharma brand offers the best ever price per package size of all the products in our ranking.If you adhere to the lowest limit of the daily dose, a pack of 900 tablets will last you about half a year.But a low price definitely does not mean lower quality - quite the opposite.Chlorella from the MedPharma brand is characterized by high quality and very gentle processing.About the manufacturer: MedPharma is a Czech company dedicated to the development, production and sale of dietary supplements since 2000. MedPharma brand products aim to support human health and are characterized by their very affordable price.This company's offer also includes, for example, cosmetic and medical products.Until recently, you could meet MedPharma supplements mainly in pharmacies, but they are gradually starting to appear in the offer of e-shops with sports nutrition.And what experience do we have with MedPharma brand products?You can find them, for example, in a comparison of the best collagens or a ranking of the best probiotics.Composition and recommended dosage:MedPharma bet on chlorella in the form of tablets and, at least in my opinion, they did well.Although you don't add the tablets to a smoothie or to food, you don't have to worry about their taste at the same time.Just wash them down quickly with water and you're done.After some time, one gets tired of constantly adding powdered chlorella to everything and appreciates the possibility of simply enjoying it alone.Regarding the dosage, the manufacturer recommends taking 5 tablets as one dose.You can enjoy three such doses during the day, which makes a total of 3,750 mg of chlorella.Final evaluation: As I wrote above, one of the main advantages of chlorella from MedPharma is its price.However, most products in the form of tablets tend to be more expensive than powdered chlorella.However, if you only take one dose (5 tablets) per day, MedPharma BIO Chlorella will cost you less than all the other products in the ranking.As a result, it combines simple use with a low price, making it undoubtedly one of the best products on the market.Nutrisslim's Chlorella Tablets also offer a very good price-to-package size ratio.At the same time, the entire product is processed very gently and benefits mainly from the use of quality raw materials.In this case, the manufacturer recommends dosing 3-10g of chlorella per day, which is a relatively large range in which you can move around.However, it is generally recommended to use doses around the lower limit.About the manufacturer: Nutrisslim is originally a Slovenian company engaged in the production of superfoods of the highest quality.He takes all raw materials directly from the growers, thanks to which he has an overview of their origin and quality.The company fundamentally avoids the use of artificially processed raw materials, which is why all its products have RAW and BIO quality certification.You may have already met the products of this brand in our ranking of the best collagens.Composition and recommended dosage:In the case of Nutrisslim Chlorella Tablets, the manufacturer recommends taking 12 to 40 tablets per day, which corresponds to an amount between 3 and 10 grams of chlorella.However, the upper limit of this range seems quite high to me personally, especially considering the lack of studies examining the effects of chlorella in similar doses.For that reason, I would recommend sticking to around 3 grams, which is an amount that is well researched (see information below the rankings).Despite the fact that swallowing 40 tablets a day certainly does not sound like something pleasant.Although chlorella tablets are very small and it is not a problem to swallow more at once, it is still a rather lengthy and annoying process.Final Evaluation: Given the low price and high quality of the workmanship, it is very difficult to find any major negatives about Nutrisslim Chlorella Tablets.Again, someone could argue that chlorella from China is not of good quality, but without information about the exact place of origin, it is really difficult to evaluate this aspect.Ultimately, we have to rate chlorella from the Nutrisslim brand very positively.Another product from the workshop of the BrainMax brand found its place in our ranking.However, Pure Chlorella Tablets are sold (as the name suggests) in tablet form.Otherwise, however, it is essentially an almost identical product, which primarily benefits from high-quality processing, which makes chlorella easily digestible.Composition and recommended dosage:Choosing chlorella tablets over powder will save you a lot of hassle with using it.You don't have to figure out what to add to your chlorella or struggle to drink it on its own.For this particular product, the manufacturer recommends taking 4 tablets before meals a total of three times a day.This corresponds to about 1.8 grams of chlorella, which is a completely tolerable dose.I wouldn't even be against a slightly higher dose, but that's up to you.Final evaluation: Since BrainMax Pure Chlorella BIO received a very good rating from us, it is quite logical that Pure Chlorella Tablets from the same manufacturer also earn mostly words of praise from us.The only thing in which this product lags behind its counterpart is the price.As I wrote before, products in the form of tablets tend to be more expensive, which of course makes sense.Although chlorella holds together without the use of any other substances, the production of tablets is still a bit more expensive.The customer also undoubtedly pays for a certain level of comfort, as using tablets is much more convenient after all.Chlorella from the GreenFood brand resembles a typical supplement.It is sold in classic capsules, which are no different from, for example, vitamins or minerals.In terms of efficiency, of course, it has no effect, but in terms of use, it can be quite a significant positive for someone.About the manufacturer: GreenFood is a family-owned Czech company that has been active in the sports nutrition market for over 25 years.It focuses on the development of quality supplements made from first-class ingredients.The company is primarily based on high-quality organic ingredients.Therefore, you would hardly find preservatives, added sugars, dyes or stabilizers in their products.Thanks to this, it has gained the reputation of a proven manufacturer that can be relied on.You may have come across GreenFood products in our ranking of the best l-carnitines and in our comparison of the best digestive enzymes.Composition and recommended dosage:Chlorella from GreenFood is one of the few products on the list in capsule form.The disadvantage is that, unlike products in the form of powder or tablets, they must also contain the capsule itself, which somewhat affects the purity of the product.Fortunately, the GreenFood brand uses vegetable capsules made from hypermellose, to which nothing else is subsequently added.Therefore, we do not find any stabilizers here, which are often found in supplements in the form of capsules.The recommended daily dose is two capsules, which corresponds to 700 mg of chlorella.Final review: GreenFood Chlorella is a product that will definitely not disappoint you if you decide to give it a try.But I see the problem in the price, which can discourage many people.In terms of the amount of chlorella, it is quite expensive.The reason is primarily the fact that one daily dose contains relatively few active substances.Seven hundred milligrams of chlorella is really not much and I would personally be inclined to increase the recommended dose.However, if you are primarily concerned with quality and careful processing, you will definitely not regret it.Chlorella Powder BIO by Purasana was placed next in our ranking.This is another completely pure chlorella vulgaris powder that offers countless health benefits.Its big advantage is the favorable price and large packaging, which, depending on your dosage, can last you a really long time.About the manufacturer: Although the Belgian brand Purasana was founded in 2010, its roots go back much further.The founder of the company, Raf De Jonckheere, opened his first natural food store back in 1977. Purasana's vision is to make people healthier and more energetic.It wants to achieve this by using 100% sustainable raw materials from which it produces its products.Thanks to the high quality requirements of its products, the Purasana brand has earned many certifications and trademarks.Composition and recommended dosage:The manufacturer recommends taking 3 heaped teaspoons of chlorella every day, which should correspond to 11 grams.To be honest, such a dose seems quite excessive to me, but of course I'm not saying that it can't suit someone.However, if you are using chlorella for the first time, definitely do not take the whole dose at first.For example, start with one teaspoon (ideally divided into thirds during the day) and gradually increase the dose.The origin of chlorella, which is said to be from Mongolia or China, specifically from the island of Chai-nan, is definitely worth mentioning.In any case, these are areas where air pollution is definitely not at a high level.This is of course very good from the point of view of growing chlorella, because otherwise it could be contaminated with heavy metals.Final evaluation: Purasana Chlorella Powder BIO represents, from my point of view, a very high-quality product that I would not be afraid to recommend to basically anyone, regardless of their price preferences.The only thing I would have some reservations about is the recommended daily dose, which I commented on earlier.If you dose chlorella in the normal amount (around 3 grams), one package will last you a long time.However, if you follow the recommended dosage, you will have to restock after about 18 days, and the whole thing will get really expensive.The Viridian brand produces some of the highest quality and purest supplements on the market.Viridian Chlorella Organic certainly does not give the brand a bad name and ranks among the top products we have come across.Unfortunately, it has one big drawback, which is also typical for Viridian.In terms of the amount of active substance, it is the most expensive product in the ranking.About the manufacturer: The British company Viridian Nutrition specializes in the production of so-called ethical vitamins.All products of this brand are 100% bioactive and do not contain genetically modified substances.In addition, they are stored in capsules of vegetable origin without the use of any additives.The company is primarily based on the purity of its products, environmental friendliness and helping charity.It only uses recycled materials and in Britain they even buy used packaging back from customers for a small fee.You may have already come across the Viridian brand in our ranking of the best antioxidants or in our comparison of the best B vitamins.Composition and recommended dosage:All capsules of the Viridian brand are of vegetable origin, which is a particularly big plus in this case.Otherwise, it would be much harder to compete with other products that only contain pure chlorella.In terms of composition, the only drawback I see is that the manufacturer does not indicate which country the chlorella they use comes from.As for the recommended daily dose, it ranges from 400 mg to 1,200 mg.Again, I would recommend sticking to somewhere between 1 to 3 grams of chlorella per day, so I would lean more toward the higher limit that the manufacturer recommends.Final Review: If you prefer capsule products, Viridian Chlorella Organic is a great choice.With this manufacturer, you can be sure that any product has undergone very careful processing and that it is of first-class quality.Unfortunately, you will have to pay extra for it, and quite a lot.In terms of the ratio of the amount of chlorella in one package to the price, it is based on the overview the worst of all the products in the ranking.So it's definitely not the best choice for someone who doesn't like spending too much on supplements.Chlorella from the MaxxWin line of Revix supplements will also please anyone who prefers products in the form of capsules.Similar to Viridian or GreenFood, the MaxxWin brand also opted for a plant-based capsule, which makes the product suitable for vegans and vegetarians.About the manufacturer: Although it may not be obvious from the name, Revix is ​​not actually a brand name, but only a line of dietary supplements produced by the MaxxWin brand.This Czech manufacturer of sports supplements has been operating on the market since 2011, and is characterized primarily by the fact that all of its products are produced directly in the Czech Republic.Revix is ​​a line of products focused on health, beauty and quality of life.In addition to chlorella, it contains omega 3 fatty acids, barley, various oatmeal and the like.You may have already encountered the MaxxWin brand in our comparison of the best B vitamins or in the ranking of the best l-carnitines.Composition and recommended dosage:Revix Chlorella does not contain any unnecessary additives in addition to the herbal capsule, which is of course a big plus.The capsule itself is also suitable for vegans, so the whole product is basically no different from chlorella in powder form in terms of suitability for anyone.The manufacturer has set four capsules as the recommended daily dose, which corresponds to 2 grams of chlorella.This is an absolutely ideal amount and I have no doubt that it will suit just about anyone.If not, it is of course very easy to reduce or increase the dosage.Final assessment: Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not state the country of origin of the chlorella used by him, which is quite a shame, because the country of origin can often tell a lot about the quality of the entire product.In terms of price, Revix Chlorella is somewhere in the middle.It's not the most expensive, but it's certainly not the cheapest either.It's a typical example of a product that won't offend you, but frankly doesn't really excite you either.But it definitely works reliably and if you decide to invest in it, you won't regret it.Although the Ekolife Natura brand is far from being one of the best-known manufacturers of sports supplements in the Czech Republic, its Algae Chlorella Organic is one of the best supplements with chlorella on the market.It is sold in the form of tablets, each tablet containing 500 mg of the active substance.About the manufacturer: The Slovenian brand Ekolife Natura is mainly engaged in the sale of liposomal vitamins and similar products.Behind the brand are two sisters who want to use their products to help people achieve a healthier lifestyle.Since they are both mothers, they make their products in such a way that they can also give them to their children with peace of mind.It is therefore clear that all products of the Ekolife Natura brand are made from first-class raw materials.Composition and recommended dosage:Ekolife Natura Algae Chlorella Organic tablets do not contain anything extra besides chlorella vulgaris.The complete purity of the product is a big plus, without which it wouldn't even have a chance to compete with the competition.The recommended dose consisting of 6 tablets is equivalent to 3 grams of chlorella.So there is nothing to complain about in this regard.However, I would again point out that if you are using chlorella for the first time, start with smaller doses and gradually increase them.Final evaluation: Chlorella from the Ekolife Natura brand is a very high-quality product that you can't go wrong with.As with many other products, the manufacturer does not state the country of origin of the chlorella, which is a bit of a shame.A slight disadvantage may be the price, which is not the lowest, but still within reasonable limits.So if you don't mind that it's a lesser-known manufacturer, there's no reason why we can't recommend this product to you.Finally, we have Chlorella from the brand VitaHarmony, which is also in tablet form.In some cases, VitaHarmony supplements contain dyes that we do not consider to be the most suitable.In this particular case, however, we did not find anything similar in the composition, because, as with all previous products, it is only pure chlorella vulgaris without any additives.About the manufacturer: The roots of the Czech brand VitaHarmony go back to one of the oldest (if not the oldest) purely Czech multivitamin.The company VitaHarmony started operating on the market only a few years after the thirty-component multivitamin CentralVita saw the light of day in 1991.The brand was able to establish itself mainly thanks to the inspiration of supplements sold in the USA, and it was definitely helped by cooperation with a company there.You may have come across VitaHarmony products, for example, in the ranking of the best antioxidants or in our comparison of the best B vitamins.Composition and recommended dosage:Information on the recommended dosage of chlorella from the VitaHarmony brand says that 3-6 tablets should be taken 1-2 times a day.In practice, this can mean three to twelve tablets, which corresponds to 1.5 grams to 6 grams of chlorella.As I have already written several times with previous products, it is advisable to take about 3 grams of chlorella per day.Above all, if you have no experience with this algae, it is good not to start with higher doses at the beginning.Of course, you can increase them over time according to your needs.Final evaluation: In terms of price, VitaHarmony Chlorella is average.The same can basically be said about its composition and overall quality.It is definitely a reliable product that will give you all the benefits associated with chlorella, but I can't say that you can't find a better option after all.If you've heard of chlorella before, you probably know it's a type of seaweed.However, this is not entirely true, because unlike other widespread algae, chlorella is only freshwater.It is therefore a type of unicellular freshwater algae originating in Taiwan and Japan.In fact, today Germany is also among the world's largest producers.Chlorella is very easy to grow because it can survive in almost any conditions.This is especially true for the chlorella vulgaris species, which is the most widely used commercially.Cultivation takes place mostly in open ponds, but there are also other and usually more expensive methods.Although it may seem that ordinary green algae does not hide much, this is not true.The list of substances that chlorella contains is actually quite impressive.First of all, it contains all 9 essential amino acids, as it is a great source of protein, which makes up 50-60% of the whole algae.At the same time, it is rich in iron and chlorophyll.Both of these substances are important for the formation of hemoglobin, the red blood pigment that ensures the transport of oxygen.Chlorella also contains group B vitamins, vitamin C, omega 3 fatty acids, fiber or the unique growth factor CGF (Chlorella Growth Factor).This is responsible for its extremely fast growth and in the human body it supports the growth of lactobacilli in the intestines.Its impressive nutritional spectrum is why chlorella is often referred to as a superfood.Due to the high content of health-promoting nutrients, it is clear that chlorella has a lot to offer in terms of health benefits.Chlorella is often used for its amazing detoxifying effects.Scientific studies indicate that it helps eliminate heavy metals from the body, which can be potentially harmful.Humans are exposed to heavy metals mainly in a polluted environment, and they primarily threaten the liver, kidneys and brain.At the same time, chlorella supports the activity of the immune system.Thanks to this, it helps prevent diseases and strengthens the overall health of the organism.When we talk about the positive effects of chlorella on health, we must not forget its strong antioxidant effects.The reason is primarily its high content of vitamin C, beta-carotene and chlorophyll.Last but not least, chlorella works as an important prevention against high pressure, which is further reflected in the overall health of the cardiovascular system.We could continue to list the positive effects of chlorella on health for a long time, but I believe that by now you have formed a sufficient picture of how useful this freshwater algae can be.This information may be somewhat confusing, but it is indeed true.The cell wall of chlorella is composed of cellulose, which is indigestible to humans.In order to achieve all the desired effects, it is therefore necessary to disrupt this cell wall.There are several ways to achieve this, but the most common way is to break or crush the cell wall using special technologies.In addition to chlorella, a lot of attention is paid to other similar organisms.For example, spirulina is often discussed, with which many people confuse chlorella.However, there are several differences that set them apart.First of all, it should be said that spirulina is not an algae, but a cyanobacteria that is found in both fresh and salt water.Chlorella and spirulina differ primarily in what substances they contain.While the former is a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier, spirulina is used more to strengthen and nourish the human body, as it contains more protein and vitamin B12.It should be noted, however, that both organisms have a lot to offer the human body and are definitely worth including in the menu.As I wrote above, chlorella is most often grown in East Asia.When choosing chlorella, it is worth paying attention to the country from which it comes.According to the tests, the best quality chlorella is from Taiwan, while the most polluted one comes from China.The reason is the air quality, which is very low in the world's most populous country.Despite the high quality of chlorella from Taiwan, you will not usually find it in the products sold because it is too expensive.The big disadvantage of chlorella is its unpleasant taste.Pure algae cannot even be expected to taste pleasant.Fortunately, there are many ways you can incorporate chlorella into your diet without struggling every day with an unpleasant taste.The first option is of course the use of supplements in the form of tablets or capsules.You just have to swallow them and you don't have to worry about the taste at all.But if you prefer powdered chlorella, you'll have to get a little creative.Probably the best way to prepare chlorella is to add it to a fruit smoothie.In it, the taste of chlorella is easily lost, and it is overpowered by the fruit of your choice.There is also the option of adding chlorella to a spread, soup or other similar food.If you want to feel the taste of nature to the fullest, you can simply add chlorella to water and drink it alone.discount applies to everythingdiscount applies to everythingdiscount applies to everythingdiscount applies to
