Chlorella, a single-celled algae, is grown and processed with care to ensure it retains its high nutrient content. The cultivation and processing of chlorella involves controlled environments, careful harvesting and quality testing to ensure it remains pure, nutrient-dense and safe for consumption.
One of the key steps in chlorella processing is cracking or breaking the tough outer cell wall as Chlorella has a fibrous outer shell that is indigestible to humans, so it must be broken down to make the nutrients bioavailable. It is then dried, ground into a powder and stored.
