Buy Chlorella – Freshwater Microalga as Tablets & Powder
Chlorella is a single-celled freshwater microalga from the genus Chlorella and belongs to the green algae. Characteristic is its high natural content of chlorophyll, which gives the alga its intense green colour, as well as of plant protein. In this category, you'll find Chlorella from Scheunengut – from controlled cultivation, vegan and lab-tested.
Origin & Extraction
Chlorella grows in freshwater and is cultivated in closed systems to achieve consistent purity. After harvesting, the alga is dried and, depending on the variety, processed with a broken cell wall so that it is more readily available. A related alga is spirulina, which is often offered together with chlorella.
