Yay it's my Chlorella birthday. So proud to have reached a year of consistent use.
I went up to 12g for about 7 months but am on a maintenance dose of 6g now. I add mine to my egg shake - Lovely!!

That's great! What kind of improvements have you notice?






Happy Hair Growing!

Happy Hair Growing!

Thank you! What have I noticed? I don't know where to begin...

First thing I noticed was the detox effect and increased energy. I began to bounce out of bed at 6 in the morning. I still do and this is unusual for me. I used to wake up at 8 and feel tired.
I noticed my skin looked clear and had a glow.
The skin glow makes me look more youthful.
No more morning breath or anytime of day breath.
No more stinky or inconsistent poos:nono:.
I slowly began to notice my eyelashes growing back.
The major effect it had on me is that I enjoyed the benefits so much it inspired me to clean up my diet and now I eat very healthily and drink plenty of water.
Knock on effect - Weight loss from size 16 - 12.:yep:

As for my hair, I cant really say because I do so many things and change up my practices so often looking for a regimen - but it must definitely have had a positive effect on the hair growth and retention I have had.

I love chlorella I will never stop taking it - the benefits are just too life changing.
 
Does anyone get violently ill (throwing up) after taking Chlorella? :barf: I started taking the serving size on the bottle, everything was fine, then I upped the dosage slightly 2-3 pills more a day no problem,then all of a sudden I took them one day and got soooooooo sick. :cry: I stopped taking them. I loved the clear skin, and the energy. Help me
 
Aunt flo now only officially visits for two days and is not painful like the past where she left me doubled over and wouldn't leave for 6-8 days at a time :grin:

How long were you taking them before you decided to increase the dose? Were you detoxing? When you threw up, had you eaten some bad food (ie. fast food etc) or had you not eaten at all?

I took them for about a month...but I increased the dose about 2 week after starting. Everything was going great, then one morning I took them and I started feeling AWFUL...didn't think it was the chlorella cause I had been taking them awhile before this happened..of course I had to test it again and the next time I upchucked violently after having my breakfast(English muffin,egg white, turkey sausage). I want to continue taking them cause I was getting results (skin and energy) I'm tooo scared to try them again:cry4:

My mom did. She had to stop taking it.

If it were me, I'd go back to taking them. That's just me because I love the benefits behind it. I'd start back out and the low dose and stay there. Had you gone 'green' yet?

I have read about ppl being allergic to this and/or spirulina though. But, it could've also been that you increased to quick and you detox.

Yes, I had gone "green"..everything was going great even with the increase in pills them BAM! I got sick. It's been two months since I've taken any so I may try them again tomorrow but with a different meal maybe lunch instead of breakfast. Thanks for responding.

Hey Ladies how is it growing. i am doing very well. I started Chlorella at least 8 months ago and am retaining length and strength. It is a staple and I believe the reason I am having so much success. I must say I have been selfish advising friends and family. My sisters saw me taking alll these tiny green pills and started teasing so I keep my "craziness" as they say to myself. It is working so well for me so catch me in the wind. I LOVE THIS THREAD

That's ok. My lil brother thinks I'm crazy for my spirulina pills and chlorella powders..among other healthy things I eat/drink. That's ok. I plan to be 100 looking like I'm 45 yrs old :lachen:

I just increased my chlorella dose earlier this week. I'm now at 6g.
 
Just wanted to chime in... I took chlorella last year for about 1 month or so, but stopped because of lack of discipline really. I took it with apple sauce. I was taking it with MSM, Biotin, B-Complex.

I'm officially one month back onto the train and take about 1.5 g of chlorella. I've been slow to move up, but I'm hoping to be at 3g by mid-July. I take it with yogurt. I also take MegaFoods Blood Builder, 5mg of Biotin, B50 Complex.

I've also been eating a whole lot healthier.
 
ok i need to figure out what is making me sick, the chlorella or the spirulina or using them together, every time i use them now i feel sick?

should i use chlorella alone, i don't want to waste my pills really...

and also are there any external body uses for them both?

thanks.
 
Jumping on the bandwagon! I purchased Source Naturals chlorella and spirulina at iherb. I used the $5 off coupon, and I received free shipping because my order was over $40. They should be here next week! :dance7:
 
I just started chlorella.. no detox signs i think..

i cant tell a difference at all!!

does it take time to see on skin and body?

thanks

How long have you been taking them, and how much (mg) are you taking of each? Are you drinking water? Taking them on a full tummy or empty? Are you eating alot of junk foods? How "sick" is sick?

How many mg's are you taking? I already eat a pretty healthy diet and skin care regimen, so I haven' tnoticed anything out of the ordinary in that department. Just make sure you're keeping track of your water intake.

I take 2g, 1/2 teaspoon.

I wanna take much more i just didnt wanna get sick.. but maybe that means my body can handle a little more?

I was thinking ending at 6g at least.
 
Just got my pills. I just took two 500mg Chlorella tablets. I really hope I don't have any side effects. :pray:

I smelled it too, it smells like my childhood fish's tank. :look:
 
Hi everyone, I just started taking chlorella this Tuesday. I'm taking 2g (10 pills) of the Source Naturals Yaeyama brand in the morning with orange juice.

I went a dark green on Thursday and went a very BRIGHT green this morning. lol

I did not have any detox signs, I dont know if thats a good or a bad thing. I do notice that I've slept very well this week, no waking up in the middle of the night, tossing and turning, insomnia which I'm very grateful for.

Just wanted to share my experience so far.
