Chlorella is excellent in support of fragile people
Chlorella is recommended for all those who have health problems that reduce their physical and moral resistance.
The main effects of Chlorella, which make it a valuable natural supplement for the sick, are due to its action on the immune system.
A recent study, conducted by Jung Hyun Kwak (2012) and his team of researchers from Seoul University (South Korea), shows that Chlorella would be able to stimulate the immune activity of a healthy adult who consumed 5 g per day of Chlorella vulgaris in tablets for eight weeks.
We already knew from studies on cells and on mice, published a few years ago, that Chlorella can have a positive effect on the immunity of animals. We have finally measured the effects of Chlorella on humans thanks to a double-blind study against placebo by a team of researchers from the University of Seoul (South Korea).
The results of this study of Chlorella on humans, show that after 8 weeks of consumption of 5 g/day of Chlorella, the healthy patients of the study present, compared to those of the placebo group, a significant increase in the number of cells which are concerned by their immune system such as the NK lymphocytes, the interferon-gamma, the interleukin-12, the interleukin 1 beta and the Th1 lymphocites
