Chlorella is a dietary supplement containing the microalga Chlorella, a single-celled freshwater alga from the group of green algae.
It is one of the oldest known photosynthetically active organisms and forms natural cell colonies in still or slow-flowing waters.

Characteristic of the genus Chlorella is its high chlorophyll content, which gives the alga its intense green color.

For dietary supplements, Chlorella is cultivated in controlled aquaculture, ensuring the purity, quality, and consistent composition of the algal biomass.

Botanical characteristics

Chlorella consists of individual spherical cells with a diameter of only a few micrometers.

Each cell contains, among other things:

– a central cell nucleus
– numerous chloroplasts
– a robust, multi-layered cell wall

This cell wall structure is typical for Chlorella and affects the stability of the dried algal biomass.

Origin and cultivation

Chlorella is cultivated either in open pond systems or in closed glass tube cultivation systems.

Organically produced Chlorella comes from controlled organic cultivation, which includes the following criteria:

– avoidance of synthetic pesticides
– regular purity controls
– documented cultivation, harvesting, and drying processes

After harvesting, the algal biomass is washed, gently dried, and then processed into powder or tablets.

Composition

Chlorella contains various naturally occurring components, including:

– chlorophyll – a coloring plant pigment
– plant protein components
– fiber from natural cell structures
– various vitamins and minerals of natural origin
– carotenoids and other accompanying substances

The exact composition can vary depending on the origin, growth conditions, and processing.

Use and tradition

Algae, including Chlorella, have traditionally been used as part of the diet in various regions of the world.

In the 20th century, Chlorella also gained scientific attention, particularly in research projects on the use of alternative plant raw material sources.
