How about taking Chlorella?

[Forever in Bloom]

I forgot to say that I started out with taking 6 spirulina tablets and 10 chlorella tablets (both were the recommended amount).

I decided to have a chlorella smoothie (which is really just 1 tsp mixed with 16 ounces of water and 1/2 scoop of this vegan powder mix I take - can't remember the name) in the morning (for energy), and take the chlorella and spirulina tablets at night (for better absorption)

Back on it....

My face broke out something horrible during the two months I skipped it...

Its on the mend now...

 

[nysister]

I'm still taking Chlorella and Turmeric.

 

[nerdography]

I just starting taking Chlorella in powder form, I've been taking the pills for a while, but they were hard for me to swallow.

 

[Qualitee]

In order for chlorella and spirulina to work really well togther you have to take more mgs of spirulina than chorella? etc 1000mg of chlorella and 2mgs of spirulina?

 

[Nasdaq_Diva]

Yes. Its 2:1 spirulina/chlorella

[lwilliams1922]

wow this thread is still kicking around?

I haven't purchased more in a bit but I did get a tonic recently to help detox and drain heavy metals from your system. I was studying the little one ounce bottle and noticed the main ingredient is CHLORELLA!

 

[Divafied3]

Anyone else still taking this? My skin is doing fab. I have not seen much results in the other areas.

Oh yeah I went green on the 2nd day!

I am also taking this (along with several other vitamins/minerals), and I went green the same day, lol. I can definitely see the difference, but since I'm taking several different vitamins, I'm not sure what to attribute it all to.

What dosage are you taking?

Oh no! I didn't even think about this. I just ordered some at the end of February so I'm good for now, but later....erplexed

ETA: Read this at Sun Chlorella..I know that's a good brand also

Our thoughts and prayers are with the nation of Japan, the home of our corporate office.

The principally affected region is in the northeast region of Japan; however Kyoto itself is over 400 miles away. We'd like to assure you that our products are safe. The production of our products takes place in Taiwan, which is 2,100 miles away from Japan, so the growing of our chlorella is not impacted. However, we are closely monitoring this situation.

We will take every precaution necessary to ensure the safety of our products and will keep you abreast of new updates along the way... Read More

I got on the Chlorella/spirulina after not being very well last week. I feel sooo much better. First thing I noticed was very strong, white nails. My eyebrows are also ridiculous and my lashes have been in my eyes a lot. Not sure about growth on my head but if I make BSL by December I will know this did something. I'm taking it with Biosil, folic acid and Flaxseed oil though (yes I need them all)

Back on this train!

[hothair]

It WAS doing something! My hair is so full (I have fine hair) and I believe I have had a growth spurt (I refuse to measure before Dec) but it feels longer, I have to do more twisting around for my bun and its hanging longer down my back. I thought it may have been the Biosil, but now I think its a combo of all my vitamins so will continue with those.

 

[LaidBak]

Wow, I remember this thread. *searches stash for bottle of chlorella*

 

[Incognitus]

I fell off the chlorella/spirulina wagon for 2 reasons:

1. The amount of pills consumed daily was becoming unbearable.
2. The cost from the pills was also becoming unbearable.


Before my diet, I would take the pills with a smoothie or basically any type of juice. Now that I only drink water, it's quite difficult to swallow these pills.

 

[LaidBak]

^^ Yes! All those pills! I still have 2/3s of a big bottle left. I'm not taking more than 2 pills at a time. If that isnt enough then oh well! I got sick of choking down 9 pills a day.

 

[nc cutie]

I have to admit I am not taking as many but I remember I loved the benifits. I had great skin...I now have chin acne that needs to go. My body kind of reshaped.

[Chameleonchick]

I'm starting this all over again. I haven't taken it in months. I have too many bottles of this stuff. I am starting again today back at the low dosage until my body gets used to it again.

 

[Nix08]

I actually recently started taking this for health...

 

[pink219]

Vitamin shoppe had a buy 1 get 1 half off so I bought more chlorella and spirulina...They work for me

 

[Platinum]

Still taking 2mg of Vitamin Shoppe brand Chlorella a day.

 

[ladysaraii]

Dug out my chlorella again tonight.

Starting with 1/4 tsp, probably going to move to 1 tsp (3mg) tomorrow

Platinum - you've been taking chlorella, how's it working for you?

I just started tonight (got a little creative). I mixed 1 tsp with 1/2 banana, a couple slices of cucumber, some fresh pineapple, about 4 or 5 oz. of Green Goodness, 1 tsp chlorophyll, 1 tsp of flaxseed oil. Wasn't bad at all, but if you or anyone else has another mix, I'd like to try it.
