Tired of Detox Trends? So Are We! Detoxify Your Body Naturally With Just One Solution!

We Live In A Toxic World, Deal With It.

Let’s be honest here, toxins are impossible to avoid; whether you spend your days indoors, outdoors, staying home or traveling – there are “harmful” toxins all around us. While these naturally occurring toxins may not be life threatening all at once, they may be potentially harmful in the long run. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) acknowledges this contamination, and states that “almost all people have at least trace amounts of mehtylmercury [an organic compound and environmental toxin] in their tissues, reflecting methylmercury’s widespread presence in the environment.”1 Creepy thought, isn’t it?  Not if you protect yourself! Don’t throw your vessel into a toxic puddle… get some greens in your life and start taking action against minimizing the toxins in your body!
 

Algae… It’s More Than Seaweed!

Sunfood Chlorella TabletsNo, we’re not talking about kelp in the ocean or giant strands of seaweed that wash up on the shore – the algae we’re talking about is a phytonutrient, rich in chlorophyll and packed with vital nutrients. Broken Cell Wall Chlorella is formed by an amazing blue-green microalgae, and it has been scientifically proven to help mitigate toxicity in the body. One study found that “continuous BP [chlorella] intake accelerates the excretion of MeHg [methylmecury] and subsequently decreases tissue Hg [mercury] levels.”2 The power of chlorella to combat heavy metals is not limited to mercury. Another study found that chlorella helps the body rid itself of cadmium, concluding that “when exposed to Cd (cadmium), chlorella is an appropriate source which counteracts heavy metal poisoning.”3 

The Great Wall of Chlorella

Here’s the deal. Chlorella has a very, very strong surrounding cell wall which is completely indigestible. This great cell wall must be broken down in order to facilitate absorption—or to get all of the benefits of the nutrients inside. Our non-GMO, raw Chlorella undergoes a unique process which breaks open the cell wall and makes the phytonutrients bioavailable. The elimination of light, heat and foreign processing aids in the cold-milling process ensure the highest quality product with complete preservation of the nutrients.

 

The Sunfood Difference

Sunfood Chlorella TabletsOur chlorella is the most powerful strain of chlorella, Chlorellapyrenoidosa, boasting an abundance of nutrients beyond chlorophyll such as vitamin A, iron, zinc, B vitamins and 66% protein by weight! Last but definitely not least, our chlorella contains no binders or fillers. It’s just pure chlorella in tablet form that you can chew out of the bag, blend in smoothies, or simply swallow with water. It’s a super easy way to detox!

Here’s an idea! Not everyone likes to eat Chlorella right out of the bag… it’s an acquired taste. Instead, try creating a delicious blend of creamy raw Cashews, succulent Botija Olives and Chlorella in a trail mix! The possibilities are endless!
