Chlorella is a single-celled fresh water algae. One of the richest food in protein, beta-carotene and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), chlorella contains more chlorophyll than any other food. It acts as a detoxifier, antioxidant, immuno-stimulant and complete nutrient. “A number of companies market chlorella. However, from my perspective, the products from Prime Chlorella (TM) are unsurpassed for purity and effectiveness.” Paul Pitchford M.S., author of Healing With Whole Foods.
