Hey Kuwait! Chlorella and wheatgrass are two different plants. I use the term "plant" loosely, because chlorella is actually a single celled organism. Wheat Grass is an alkaline green leafy vegetable. Chlorella is a single-celled freshwater algae. Both have chlorophyll in them but Chlorella has the most of any.
Definitely take a gander at the first two posts in this thread to learn more about the benefits. There are many for some and we all hope that one of them is increased hair growth!

I just got some barley grass powder to throw into my morning shake for good measure.
I working to go towards more raw. I would love to juice one day...when my life is less hectic.
What are the benefits of barley powder?
I was adding organic spinach to my shake. Just wondering if there was another "green" that was more beneficial. My body is tired of trying to break down undigestable foods. I need to really get back to my shake for breakfast and dinner.

It's another form of green and it helps fight cancer, gives energy keeps the body balanced similar to CHL. It's good for keeping hunger at bay and it's good for athletes. I'm always looking for ways to sneak in aminos...
It's just something I want to try to complement my healthy eating habits.
Here's a link.

Hey ladies!!I am pimple free, and my hair is growing, growing, growing!!
March 29th will be 2 months for me!! :reddancer:
You and me both. If Chlorella does nothing for my hair, I will take Chlorella forever just for my skin.

How big are the Vitamin Shopper brand Chlorella pills? Are they small like Source Natural or like horse pills?

I just went to wash the makeup off my face and OMG, is my skin smooth. I put some olive oil on my face and my hands just glided straight across. I am in awe right now. The oil literally had no where to go and I could feel it just sitting there.
Truly, truly amazed is what I am right now.
Thank goodness for this thread and the people who add to it daily. You guys are a godsend.

Talk about hair and nail growth, CHLORELLA is the truth! My daughter wears cornrows one week off the next, and so on. Well her braids look like they have been in 3wks or more, they are so lifted due to new growth!
Her nails I have to cut weekly because they grow so fast! The kiddos have no complaints, they are happy to be GREEN!
I am trying to get my 18yo son on board, he is so skeptical about everything! He needs it for his skin, but he just won't do it, so far for him its the smell. I will keep trying. GREEN is Good.

I like to report that I have new growth all over my head at the roots about 1 inch worth, even around my edges, at the temples. and they are coming in as perfect little coilsI noticed last night after doing my henna!
ETA:
I mean new hairs, I am natural so I don't mean post relaxer new growth
Come on, AtlantaJJ, YEAH!!!
That's what I'm talkin about!I had masses of energy this morning ladies. Tidied house, worked out, all before work this morning, I was like "is this me??" Before chlorella I could barely pull myself out of bed, and would just about get to work on time!
I'm upping to 10g today!

Ive been stalking this thread for a few weeks now and i really want to join this litlle family!! I live in the uk and i dont think i can get source naturals over here. My local health food store sells the chinese chlorella is that any good? Il try searching online to find other brands. I really want to start taking it for the skin and health benefits your all having....oh and the extra hair growth obviously!!

Hey, another UK chica! Welcome to the chlorella parteeeeeee!
I bought the Sun Chlorella tablets - quite expensive but I have been seeing the results so far (taking for 1 month). LD advises against using Chinese chlorella as they have different standards of production there and the chlorella can be corrupted. Best to look for a Japanese Yaeyama. If you do find the Source Naturals anywhere, pls let me know!

Sorry for the delay in reply, had to do some actual work!
My journey with chlorella so far:
-Have 'gone green' in the BM department
-Clearer smoother skin, dark spots lightening up (waiting for it to get better and better with more time!)
-Mad amounts of energy
-General feeling of wellbeing
-Significant decrease in sweating
-Change in body odour (including BMs) no bad smells
-Nails becoming whiter and tougher
-Hair growth has been boosted, but can't all be attributed to CHL as I'm doing other things (scalp massages with EOs, drinking nettle tea daily)
-Gassy with initial doses and everytime I upped my intake

Hello chlorella bellas. I haven't posted anything in the past couple of days because I was busy getting ready to see my SO who was coming from Boston, but tell me why he had a flat tire and wasn't able to come...
My skin is doing better, taking it one step at a time, literally. Marks are fading out little by little but I'm still getting pimples. I have some which I know are related to the detoxing and a few cysts which are a monthly reoccurence. However, there are two times less cysts than last month!
I'm going to increase my dosage to 6g and hopefully I'll be able to increase again the following week. I'm still going green and lovin' it!
Oh, as for my hair growth, I will see how much it has grown after taking off my kinky twists. I did them about a week ago and my roots already look like they're growing...may be my imagination but my temples are also filling up a little.
