@MileHighDiva, I haven't taken chlorella in a long time. I preferred spirulina, but hated the constipation .

My Broken Cell Wall Pure Micro-Algae Chlorella arrived yesterday. So, I am back on my Spirulina/Chlorella grind.
Plus whatever I get in Nutri-Bullet's SuperGreens.
Lovin' it!

@ilong, reduced appetite and lowered to non-existent carb/sugar cravings. I'm all in on spirulina,
I need to find the least expensive place to order the 1G Hawaian Nutrex pills.
I'm curious, if taking cod liver oil pills will head off, breaking out on my chin?
@Shimmie, do you still take chlorella and spirulina?
ETA: Fellow Costco members the Nutrex Hawaiian Pacific Spirulina has a $6 off coupon through 6/19/16. I just ordered 360 1G spirulina pills for $28.99
That should last me for six months.
LOL - @MileHighDiva on the case. Yes - Costco is where I purchase my Spirulina.

I need to get back on chlorella. The best my skin has looked was when I was taking this.

@crimsonpeach - yes, chlorella is definitely a supplement where you see/feel the effect within a month of starting it. C'mon back and join us.

Summer where are you?
I see someone mentioned constipation with Spirulina. Just make sure you are taking a fish oil supplement and you will be going smoothly.

I haven't taken any in at least a week and I'm STILL green. Next week I'm going to restart, slowly, every other day with just the one tiny pill.
Re: constipation- flaxseeds also help smooth the way.

Glad I introduced Chlorella & Spirulina into my existing Regimen.
It should work great with the Beautifully Bamboo Supplements and the Phytospecific Cap Energy I am currently taking for Hair.

I went up to 4 of the 50/50 pills a day over a two-week period. After a few days at 4, I began experiencing gassiness, stomach cramps, & very soft stools. I think it was too much, too fast & my body struggled to adjust & detox.

Both of them are 500mg and I take x3 of each so, 1500mg of each a day. How many are you taking.

Currently, I'm taking three grams of chlorella through out the day. One (1) gram pill 3x a day. On Monday, when my spirulina arrives I'll build up to 3 grams a day.

I also have the Supergreens from Nutri-Bullet that I add to my daily Nutri-Blast and that powder also contains Chlorella, Spirulina, Wheatgrass and some other things.

You should.
And it doesn't taste bad at all. It actually has a cinnamon/ginger taste to it. It actually gives it a little "kick"
I recently purchased the Beauty one because @shawnyblazes bought it. It use to be called SuperReds.
I got them directly from Nutri-Bullet for $14.99 + Free Shipping. I think Ms. Blazes got hers on Am-a-zon.

I tried Now Spiruluna and chlorella powder a few years ago and could not take the taste or smell. Recently I revisited Spirulina but tried the Nutrex Hawaii brand in my smoothie and I barely taste it. I've added ginger to my smoothie and I think this masks the taste a lot. I'm going to try to incorporate chlorella.

Hope you find the right balance for overall benefits and not make you ill in the process.

I added Silica (Horsetail) to this Regimen for Summer chasing that "Summer Growth Spurt"
So I turned up!

TMI: period related. Gross and graphic.
I am on birth control so I know exactly when my period is coming. When I am consistent with my chlorella and Spirulina my period is light in color and heaviness. It also has a mild smell. When I'm not consistent with my pills, my period is blotchy. Deep dark red mixed with brown and pink. I think the pink is mucus. The smell is also more along the lines of when I was younger and not on BC. It's not a bad smell just strong, we all know the smell. I didn't notice until just now and I was reading my journal. I'm glad I've been journaling my body feelings along with my mental feelings.

I've been taking Biotin and Bamboo as well along with my Chlorella/Spirulina tablets. I'm up to about 14 a day, 7 in the am, 7 midday. The recommended dosage is 15, tried that and I had some problems lol...that one extra tablet did make a difference.
@SlimPickinz, I notice some differences as well. I have always been a heavy clotter and pass large ones during my cycle (sorry TMI) and I haved noticed it has lessened some since adding chlorella and spirulina.

I started the TMI discussion lol I am here for it! Can I ask how on time you cycle has been if you don't mind? One of my friends has a crazy irregular cycle and I am trying to convince her to start S&C.
@SlimPickinz, my cycle is regular + or - 6 days. It usually starts between the 6th and 12th each month. This may seem irregular to some but I have PCOS so just having a cycle every month is an achievement for me. So I definitely think they are helping.

I take x3 Chlorella & x3 Spirulina and x2 Beautifully Bamboo.
I also have Chlorella & Spirulina both in my Supergreens Powder.
I had been taking just x1 Horsetail (Silica). Maybe I'll up it to x2.
