Like the Kamut and Alfalfa, it is grown from select organic seeds at 6,000 feet elevation in the mineral rich soil of an ancient volcanic lake bed. It is irrigated with pure mineral spring water and harvested at the peak of nutrition. Just Barley is guaranteed to be pure, vegetarian and organic. As a source of assimilable essential nutrients, chlorella compares well with any whole food on Earth. It is, also, an abundant source of vitamins and minerals plus essential fatty acids.
Extensive research has and is being conducted on chlorella.
Chlorella's unique phytochemical known as CGF, or Chlorella Growth Factor, is believed to be responsible for many of the therapeutic effects that have been reported in scientific journals throughout the world. In Japan, chlorella is by far the most popular nutritional supplement today with over five million people taking it on a daily basis. The Japanese, by the way, are among the longest living people of all the industrialized nations. An individual chlorella cell is barely larger than a human red blood cell which allows for micro fine filtering. This filtering process excludes any potentially toxic strain of algae or inorganic matter from entering the harvest.
