Chlorella Powder Users?

[Zipfelmuetze]

What do you guys think of Chlorella powder in your juices?
I've read both the benefits and side effects and would like to hear about your experience with Chlorella if you've tried it. I like the idea of removing heavy metals and pesticides, but I don't want to risk anything. Fortunately I don't have any allergies, so I should handle it fine in that aspect.

I can only speak for myself and I don't mix it in with my juices or green smoothies. To be honest, I don't especially care for its taste, so I mix it with some other things I take (spirulina, MSM, and others) and just down it that way.

I watched a Dr. Mercola interview with a specialist on chlorella and she said we need to take at least 4 grams to get its benefits. I weighed that out and it's a rounded teaspoon, so that's how much I take now (daily). *Ü*

I love the taste of chlorella. I use it as a flavor enhancer in soups & salad w/avocado. I also add it to smoothies. You can also stir it into water for a quick soup. I don't use it in juice, but many others do. You shouldn't have an issue using it. As with all green powders, start out slowly with a small dose. This way if it helps you detox, it's gradual.

There is a difference in the taste of chlorella, which seems to be related to the quality from what I can tell. So make sure it's a raw, organic brand in either powder or chewable tabs.

I did get a little sample of chlorella nuts in an online order this year and I really liked the flavor of those! *Ü*

Aleesha, what brand do you use?

This is very helpful, thanks! Are you basically using it continuously? Should I take breaks using it?

[DebB]

I use it daily. I also store it in the freezer. It doesn't say to do that, but I like it in there - that's where I store my spirulina too. Both of them are powders and I use both dialy. *Ü*

Eat it like any other food my man. Whenever I have Spirulina and Chlorella I add them to meals liberally. I love salads that are absolutely teeming with dark green from algae. Absolutely divine.

I use the same kind Alissa use to sell, which seems to be the best one. Most of the raw websites that sell products carry it. Usually it's under their name though so it may be hard to tell. Should be either 250 gram powder or 1000 Chewable Tablets (occasionally also sold in 400 batches).
