How about taking Chlorella?

[nothidden]

I don't think I will ever stop taking spirulina/chlorella due to the overall health benefits. I am considering increasing my 'dosage', though.

I actually just discovered it's in my vegan protein powder.

I take liquid chlorophyll. I just add a little to my water or take a shot of it

I take both spirulina and chlorella and have had an increase in energy. My skin also looks the best it's been as an adult. I've also gotten more than average hair growth and thickness.

Started taking both Spirulina & Chorella about a week or two ago. So far, so good!

Still taking both. Hoping for great results from both.

I want to switch to powder form of chlorella and spirulina.

I take them in powder form. Just and FYI...spirulina doesn't have the best taste. I just bare it these days, but I'm always trying to mask it.

LOL...it does have a weird fish taste. Try adding lemon. That helps.

@SlimPickinz and that is why I take the pills. The slight after taste on the pills is bad enough I can't imagine having to choke down the powder. Love the benefits though, my new growth has come in really thick and I am finally getting my Elvis side burns back!

Yea but I want to up my dosage & it's just not possible with the pills.

I see that you are set on taking the powder, but I wouldn't do it either. I also went for the powder form because I wanted to have a good dosage, and after a year or two of trying but failing to use, I finally tossed it in the trash because I couldn't stomach it.

Ugh girl.

What are you taking yours with?

What are you taking yours with?

I mix them in my smoothies. Usually a frozen banana, dark grapes, vegan protein powder, cinnamon and whatever tea i've brewed. But even this isn't enough to mask the taste of spirulina.

Damn it. Thank you I think I'll buy a small order first to see if I can stomach it

Yeah, that sounds best. I never gag or toss my smoothie because of the taste. I just wish it wasn't there.

You sound like a strong woman. I'm a weakling who gags at the smell of melted cheese. Hopefully I can get with the taste.

Good luck, I don't have a weak stomach and just couldn't do it. How many pills per day were you taking? I'm currently at 4.

8 a day.

 

[nothidden]

8 a day.

Wow...see i'm not a pill popper so never made the switch. No way I could do this many pills a day.

 

[SlimPickinz]

I take about 17 pills in total daily. That's why I want to switch to powder this will cut out 10 pills.

Lol I need them all

Wow, I was just thinking about this thread. I used to be in here all the time. I'm back on Chlorella now and trying to get up to 5grams a day. I think at one point in this thread I was up to 9-10grams per day because I was taking the powder and I read the dosage incorrectly. I should go back and look at my old posts for inspiration.

What good did it do for you?

I remember that my nails were beautiful. Long, think and clear like glass. My facial hair was out of control. My eyelashes were longer and my brows were ridiculous, like caterpillars. I did experience hair growth but that's not why I started taking it again. I went through a faux flu like detox that lasted a week. I also remember that I couldn't eat sugar and my appetite was almost non-existent. I craved fruits and vegetables. I was pretty skinny back then so it was more about overall health rather than weight loss. Now I want to lose a few pounds.

In our research back then, I remember reading that chlorella and spirulina repair or reset your DNA. So now I'm taking it for the health reasons.

Thanks! SO are you planning on taking both chlorella AND spirulina and if so how much of each? Im really trying to repair my health and detox as well as my overall health so Im just starting to take these.

I've been taking a spirulina/chlorella 50/50 tablet (I take 12 a day, 6 in the morning and 6 in the afternoon) and I've definitely noticed a difference in my skin, it's flawless!

I feel less tense as well. I haven't measured hair growth but the overall health benefits are phenomenonal.

The tablets are small so they aren't hard to swallow. I had started with the recommended dosage of 15 but detoxed way to fast and got constipated!

 

[Kimbosheart]

TBH I could not stand the spirulina. It was like drinking dirty fish tank water. I plan to get up to 10 grams of chlorella for a few months and then cut back to 3 for maintenance. The best way to take that high of a dosage is with the powder. I did the raw egg shake back then as well. So I would mix the bolthouse farms green juice with one raw egg and my chlorella in a cheap walmart personal smoothie blender every morning. It wasn't huge, just 4 oz of juice is needed to get it all down and I could not taste the chlorella.

I would possibly consider the 50/50 tablet but the smell of spirulina made it impossible to put in my mouth every morning consistently.

What is the 50/50 tablet?
