Hi ladies. Have any of you, other than Luckiestdestiny, seen hair thickness since taking chlorella? If so, are you taking a lot or a maintenance dose? I started chlorella again. I'm green at 3g's and I'd like to stay here.

I haven't read the entire thread, but how's the hair growth coming?
Other questions. Can chlorella replace green vegetables? Increased iron for any anemics?
Thanks
 
Still taking Vitamin Shoppe brand Chlorella. I'm not sure if it's helping with hair growth but I like the fact that I have clear, glowing skin when I take it.:yep:
 
I've been taking chlorella, 6 grams mixed with my Bolthouse Farms Green Goodness drink every 2 - 3 days, for nearly 1 year, since October 2009. I have not noticed any increased hair growth; however, I have maintained my weight, eating whatever I want and without working out, for nearly the entire year.
 
Bumping. I'm back on my CHL game. YAY me. I've gone months with abusing my body with bad food. Its time to give it something good every day again.
 
1 heaping teaspoon each of chlorella and spirulina twice a day for about the past 7 weeks. Also taking Floradix(Iron). So far, I have noticed stronger nails, less shedding and softer new growth.
 
A few days ago I started back taking my spirulina/chlorella. 9g/6g was what I jumped right back into. Please I DO NOT recommend anyone just jump straight into taking either food at such a high dosage not knowing how it will effect your body.

For me, it was easy to jump right back in due to just recently completing a 21 day detox.
 
Still take mine off/on notice less cramps at that time of the month & healthy iron count...





Happy Hair Growing!
 
tried to go back on, because i loved the results first time round, but it makes me bloat like crazy :mad: even at 1000 mg.

How much water are you drinking? Maybe you're bloating up because your body is trying to find some kind of way to let some of the water go.

I think that amount of Chlorella needed to replace the nutrients in green vegetables would be quite a bit, however if you take a lot of Chlorella daily you'll have less of a need to eat certain vegetables, depending on the reason you eat them.

Chlorella provides protein, Iron, and a host of other things, so you'd have to compare it gram for gram in relation to what you're already eating.

I wouldn't use it as a replacement for fresh vegetables, but certainly as a supplement and up the dosage during times I am eating less vegetables.

Hair update yall. I've always had dense hair but I know chlorella made it appear thicker (more strands. They're still fine). NOW I'm sure none of yall want my nightmare (thickness) BUT I will say this, that for anyone with fine hair, it might be worth the commitment. Again my hair has always appeared thick, I'd say chlorella made it a little thicker. BUT I didnt need that :lachen:. My mom noticed thickness and she has fine hair like me, but light density (thin appearance less strands) and noticed it thickened it up a bit. I realize chlorella works differently for everyone but it's just a note. I've been on and off chlorella since the beginning. More on than off (with occasional breaks because I dragged my heels reordering...just cause I procrastinate is all).

I had been taking it for 3 weeks, took a break and then started again at the same dose. Don't try that ladies! I was soo sick, kept throwing up. Even lower doses have made me nauseous :-(.
 
I started taking Chlorella about a month ago along with my green shakes, and switched to plain biotin as opposed to my hair vitamin (because most of the other vits are already in my multi). I'm not sure if it's exacty working on my hair, but I have a lot more energy, and I haven't even worn my tinted moisturizer for the past couple of weeks because my skin looks so good.

I haven't had any issues or weird side effects using it either.
 
I've started back with chlorella and spirulina (it's been 2 weeks), and my skin is off da chain :grin: If it continues to work this way, I will show you guys where I came from. Right now it's not enough to show a dramatic improvement, but it has given me a brighter complexion.

Plus I also gave up coffee (and soda) 3 weeks ago because I always throw at least 6 teaspoons of sugar in it :sad:

I gave it up to decrease my sugar intake. The first 3 days were awful - MASSIVE HEADACHES - but after that first week, I didn't even crave it.

So, I have been drinking nothing but water (juice and milk occasionally). It's like my body's craving it (which, duh, I know that's pretty much all it wants).
 
I'm taking it at night now and am working my way up to 2tsp. I'm at 1tsp atm. I take it with msm at the same dose with diluted warmed juice. I can't stomach it cold.
