Yaeyama Chlorella is micro-algae grown in a natural freshwater pool on the coral reef island of Ishigake, Japan. It is a popular superfood used in Japan for decades.
Chlorella contains vitamins, minerals and protein essential for growth and energy, supports the immune system and is 60 percent protein, which is very rare for plants.
Preclinical studies suggest that chlorella binds to toxins, not to nutrients, enabling it to support the body’s ability to cleanse.
Yaeyama Chlorella is grown in a unique environment with fresh water and natural sunlight and not grown inside a tank with artificial light.
Micro-algae are grown all over the world but none have the nutritive value of Chlorella pyrenoidosa, the type grown on the island of Ishigake and used in Yaeyama Chlorella.
