Chlorella! - Chlorella! - Chlorella!

Here are the answers to some frequently asked questions about chlorella!

Q:WHAT IS CHLORELLA?

A: Chlorella is a microscopic green freshwater plant. Chlorella's single-cell structure is the key to its uniquely varied and concentrated supply of vitamins, minerals, protein and other nutrients. Because chlorella is a pure, whole food, these nutrients are in the form and balance that nature intended.

Chlorella has more than 20 different vitamins and minerals and provides an abundance of naturally occurring beta carotene. Chlorella is 50 to 60% protein, is the highest source of chlorophyll and also contains iron, iodine, zinc and lysine. And chlorella contains more Vitamin B-12 than beef liver: this vitamin is often lacking in many vegetarian diets.

Q:HOW DOES CHLORELLA WORK?

A:The synergistic effect of the many nutrients contained in chlorella helps to balance and stabilize the body processes at a cellular level. chlorella works by providing the body the nutritional and cleansing tools it needs to function at its optimum capacity and maximum efficiency. In this way, daily chlorella intake acts as a "tune-up". Millions of people take chlorella every day to look and feel younger.

Q: WILL CHLORELLA HELP ME LOSE OR GAIN WEIGHT?

A: Sun Chlorella is not a "diet" product but many people tell us that when they take chlorella while dieting they often experience a higher level of energy, and that they lose their desire for unnecessary snacks. As a whole food that contains 60% protein, yet only 12 calories per serving (15 tablets), chlorella satisfies the appetite while providing the energy that results from good nutrition.

     Chlorella aids the digestive system through proper elimination while at the same time helping to revitalize the metabolism which results in better assimilation of the foods you do eat. So whether your goal is to gain or lose weight, chlorella can help balance the body so that a real and permanent change can be made in your overall health and weight.

Q: IS CHLORELLA A REPLACEMENT FOR MY VITAMINS AND MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS?

A: We recommend Chlorella as an addition to your regular supplement program, not as a substitute for it. This is because chlorella can help you get more out of your other supplements. Chlorella also provides many nutrients not found in processed supplements, and contains them in their natural, most effective form.

Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHLORELLA TABLETS AND GRANULES?

A: Only the physical form and packaging. The price, potency and effectiveness of the two chlorella forms are the same. Chlorella tablets are pressed from chlorella granules without the use of binders, fillers or excipients. One chlorella granule packet is equal to 15 chlorella tablets.

Q: IS CHLORELLA BENEFICIAL FOR BODY BUILDING?

A: Absolutely! The nucleic acids in chlorella have enabled this plant to rapidly reproduce and rejuvenate its own cells. When we take chlorella, we are taking the nucleic acids that are responsible for this rapid cellular reproduction along with all of the supplemental nutrients required for chlorella's reproductive growth and maintenance of its life cycle.

     The nucleic acids in chlorella regulate the production of the body's enzymes, protein and energy. They also help the body use the protein by breaking it into amino acids which are rebuilt into protein according to RNA and DNA specifications. Taken in conjunction with protein powder, chlorella can promote a synergistic effect. Plus, chlorella is low in calories and sodium, so it fits right in with today's body builders and their lighter lifestyles.

Q: HOW DOES CHLORELLA COMPARE WITH BARLEY, WHEAT GRASS AND ALFALFA?

A: Many "green" foods are sources of chlorophyll. But by comparison, chlorella is the highest natural source of chlorophyll. The results of a recent laboratory test shows that chlorella has more than five times more milligrams of chlorophyll per serving than wheat grass, twelve times more than barley and nearly 20 times more than alfalfa.

      In fact, two to three percent of chlorella is chlorophyll - the highest level of any edible plant. And unlike wheat grass, barley and alfalfa, chlorella is a whole food. The whole chlorella plant gives us the advantage of all the protoplasmic elements that aid in the growth and development of our cells. In fact, no vitamin or mineral can ever replace the value of a whole food such as chlorella.

Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHLORELLA AND SPIRULINA?

A: Both chlorella and spirulina are high in protein and vitamins, but chlorella contains up to 10 times more chlorophyll than spirulina. Studies conducted by a leading microbiologist demonstrate that spirulina is a more primitive organism than chlorella and lacks a true nucleus.

     The result is a higher quality of RNA and DNA in chlorella. Additionally, chlorella provides 12 times more iron than spirulina. Iron is essential to the formation of red blood cells that carry oxygen to all parts of the body and is naturally associated with vitality and a healthy looking complexion.

Q: WHAT IS WAKASA AND WHY SHOULD I TAKE IT?

A: Wakasa is a concentrated liquid extract of the nucleus of the chlorella plant. Wakasa contains nucleo-peptides which are an essential part of building healthy RNA/DNA.

     Many nutritionists believe the natural quality of the body's nucleic acids (RNA/DNA) deteriorates quickly due to external sources like pollution, unbalanced diets and a lack of exercise all leading to premature aging and a less effective metabolism. To make matters worse, the production of RNA and DNA is naturally reduced in our early twenties as our bodies reach maturity.

     chlorella is one of the highest sources of RNA/DNA and Wakasa is absolute chlorella. Taken regularly, Wakasa can help you feel younger and healthier.

Q: WHAT NUTRIENTS DOES WAKASA CONTAIN?

A: Wakasa contains all the nutritional factors discovered in the nucleus of the chlorella cell. So it is an abundant source of nucleotide-peptide complex. It also contains amino acids, minerals, a host of vitamins and polysaccharides.

     Manganese and sulphur are the predominant minerals found in the chlorella nucleus and it contains glucose, mannose, rhamnose, arabinose, galactose and zylose.

Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHLORELLA AND WAKASA AND WHICH PRODUCT SHOULD I USE?

A: Chlorella is a whole food that is the source of a great variety of nutrients. Chlorella tablets and granules contain all of the nutrients found both in the nucleus and the protoplasm of the plant cell. The broken cell wall of the chlorella plant, present in chlorella tablets and granules, also provide a much needed source of dietary fiber.

     While concentrated Wakasa contains only those nutrients found in the nucleus of the whole chlorella, it is at least 10 to 15 times the potency of whole chlorella. The recommended daily serving of whole chlorella tablets is 15 per day. Wakasa is the perfect compliment to daily chlorella consumption when your system needs a little more help.

Q: HOW MUCH CHLORELLA AND WAKASA SHOULD I TAKE DAILY?

A: Since chlorella is a whole natural food, you may safely take as much chlorella as you like each day. However, we suggest you begin with 1 to 3 chlorella tablets with a meal three times daily. Then gradually increase the amount until you are consuming 5 chlorella tablets three times a day. Wakasa should be consumed at the rate of 1 fluid ounce per day.

Q: IS IT ALRIGHT TO TAKE A LARGER AMOUNT OF CHLORELLA AND WAKASA?

A: Yes - after you have gradually introduced them into your daily regimen. Many users report taking additional amounts of chlorella and Wakasa when their nutritional needs increase.

Q: CAN CHILDREN TAKE CHLORELLA AND WAKASA?

A: Absolutely! Children under age fifteen should use the number of chlorella tablets daily that corresponds to their age in years. The suggested daily serving of Wakasa for children under fifteen is 1/2 fluid oz.

Q: CAN I TAKE CHLORELLA AND WAKASA WHILE I AM PREGNANT OR NURSING?

A: Yes. As natural whole food products, chlorella and Wakasa are completely safe for mothers and children. Since most doctors recommend a nutritionally complete diet and supplement program, be sure it includes chlorella.

Q: WHEN WILL I NOTICE THE BENEFITS FROM USING CHLORELLA & WAKASA?

A: Many people begin to feel healthier and more energetic almost as soon as they begin to take chlorella. Other's may experience a more subtle change over a longer period of time after starting chlorella. This is dependent on your individual lifestyle, overall health and physical condition.

     So don't be concerned if you don't notice immediate benefits from taking chlorella. As with any health regimen, it is consistent use of chlorella along with Wakasa, over a continued period of time, that is the key to achieving all of chlorella's benefits.

Q: WHAT CAN I EXPECT WHEN I START TAKING CHLORELLA AND WAKASA?

A: The naturally balancing effect that chlorella and Wakasa exert on the cells of the body may manifest itself in many ways, depending upon your own biochemical individuality. Any changes that you may notice in your body, occur in response to the properties of the chlorella. Such natural physical responses indicate that chlorella is needed and is working.

     Should any changes become uncomfortable for you, simply reduce your chlorella intake until a comfortable level is reached. Then gradually increase your chlorella consumption until you build up to the suggested serving amount or more as desired.

Q: HOW CAN I SELECT THE BEST CHLORELLA AND WAKASA?

A: The outer wall of the chlorella plant, which protects its precious nutrients, is naturally tough and therefore difficult to digest. So one of the most important factors in choosing chlorella is digestibility. Many brands claim high digestibility, but test after test in a controlled laboratory environment prove Sun Chlorella to be the most digestible chlorella supplements available today.

     Sun Chlorella achieves this high digestibility through its patented DYNO-MILL process which unlike other less effective methods, uses no nutrient damaging heat, chemical or enzyme processes. The result is a superior chlorella product that ensures the highest absorption and digestion.

     Getting the best Wakasa is easy because ONLY Sun Chlorella produces this potent health elixir. It is available in Plum Honey and Apple Lemon flavors.

But wait, before you go running out to your local store for the first bottle of chlorella you see, you should know that not all chlorella supplements are equal. In fact, I found out the hard way that Sun Chlorella is the only chlorella supplement worth taking. Sun Chlorella is 50% more digestible and any other brand of chlorella because of it's patented production process! That's right, its patented, so no matter what anyone else says, they're the best. I'll let Dr. Betty Kamen, one of the world's foremost health and nutrition experts explain more about it.

Why a scientific breakthrough gives
you twice the cleansing, health-giving,
energizing power of typical chlorella!

The DYNO-MILL™ process is able to pulverize the thick outer wall of the chlorella cell without heat or chemicals. Finally, the cell wall could be broken down without damaging chlorella's delicate enzymes, insuring full nutritional value.
