Join us for the ULTIMATE Algae smack-down, Spirulina VS Chlorella. Who's the top dog???
I’ve seen Amazon selling both combo pkg, is that ok ¿ what should I screen before buying, organic costs more so don’t get cheaper ones¿
It was my understanding that Spirulina's chemical compounds interfere with the proper absorption of B-12, which isthe main reason I switched to Chlorella. Generally, I only take a third of the dose suggested on the bottle and spread out my consumption 3 time's weekly.
@@jodrew1845 Yes I stop taking large amounts of spirulina for this reason as well.
Spirulina, and I don't need need to care about possible B12 blocking since I take a 5000 mcg sublingual B12 every day. Spirulina fed to young children suffering from malnutrition do better than those fed same calories but no spirulina!
@@jodrew1845
May I ask which brand of chlorella you're taking ? Appreciate your help 🙏
Can we take it even if we don't have any problems just for overall health?
I take both for 14 day on empty stomach , warm water honey and lemon water , every 3 month 4 clear skin hair growth energy and detoxing the liver. Works 4 me for years
Hi. In what quantities do you take them?
@@shelbeg7228 1 tsp spirulina 1 tsp chlorella in powder form
@@Mammie45 Is that as a fast with no other food or just in the morning before you start your daily meals?
@@Auroramaya no. I’d usually taken on empty stomach before my first meal.
@@Auroramaya I’ve also taken when doing just a water fast as we’ll before, but not for 14 days just the first 3 days of my water fast because this will cause constipation if your not eating or drinking anything that will help you to go🙋🏽♀️ good luck on your journey 🤗🙋🏽♀️
Take them both. They work together VERY VERY well!
Spirulina farmer here. It’s the best food (fresh). I love it
Awesome, a spirulina farmer!!!
Hi there .. you said it’s best fresh. Meaning not pulverized into a powder the way some organic health shops sell them ?
@@jonathanramos8131 almost everything is better fresh than processed. But try eating 100g of fresh Spirulina/Chlorella 🤢 🤮 vs just swallowing some tablets. With bought chlorella, just be sure it’s grown in a closed glass tubes system rather than huge open pools to avoid contamination.
Too cool 👍, do you market it as well ?
@@SuperfoodEvolution is difficult to create it?? How do create it??
I take BOTH! Looking forward to reaping the benefits...🥰
I really appreciated how the video broke down complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. The step-by-step explanations made it easy for me to understand, and the visual examples were a great touch. Kudos to the creator for making a genuinely helpful and informative video!
Thanks for that!
Very helpful. Thanks!
That was very useful info, thanks!
Thank you for all this information!!
Thank you for sharing they both have great benefits
Just ran out of spiralina yesterday. I think I'll get both during my next store run.
You can actually get them combined as one instead of buying them separately
You forgot to mention the most important thing - the Chlorella growth factor. To this day, scientists are not quite able to explain what it is - yet, taking chlorella for a while will increase the body's natural healing and rebuilding abilities. It can help repair the gut (as in leaky gut) and nourish a healthy microbiome, thus reducing opportunistic bacteria and yeast in the gut. I find the taste of chlorella easy to take in water but really struggle with spirulina in any form. Yes, I am a chlorella fan! I have tried spirulina a few times and felt the health benefits but chlorella is just so much easier for me to take. I find chlorella a lot drier - spirulina is somehow wet and oily. It has more omega 3 fatty acids, so that may be why. Anyway, after a break it's always good to start slowly - perhaps half a teaspoon a day for the first week - otherwise one ends up running to the toilet with diarrhoea.
I just started taking spirulina a few weeks ago GNC brand pill capsule form,feeling great.I also want to take chlorella.I drink Matcha tea and other teas often too.
Does both good for gastritis?
Chlorophyll
Cheers so much and I can digest spirulina and shilajit so maybe chorella as well 😊❤
I take organic burst capsules amazing brand, they do in powdered too, and have an e book about them both.
Currently they are offering a free powder with every purchase from their range
I have taken Spirulina on and off since my 20s I notice when I don't take it I'm sluggish and my blood is thicker. I love both!!
How do you notice your blood being thicker?
@@greenwhale6191I think you got him. You got him and he doesn't have no good answer for that!😂😂😂😅😅😮😊
Thank U very v much for such an excellent video
Looks like I'll be adding these two to the veg. Intake.
I take both and I’m okay with it
Wow ! probably the best Spirulina and Chlorella data videos. I love both Spirulina and Chlorella due to the fact that I get direct outwardly appearing benefits, unlike most other supplements where there is very little to no outward benefits not that there needs to be necessary to get benefits from a supplement but it sure is a bonus because of the hype of a lot of the supplements out there that push that and fail to deliver.
Thanks mate, great to here you got something out of it!
where do u get ur spirulina from i just started using it and the one i got is from west star bontanical s a company in cali and its from china which alarmed me so i called them and they say its kosher and checked for posions etc.. im still alittle nerves do u think getting it from whole foods and not from china and japan ?
@@sunflowerlove6489 I do not care for Whole Foods plus there too expensive most of the time. I get my Spirulina and Chlorella from the Vitamin Shop, it's their own house brand (Vitamen Shoppe) It's out of New York New Jersey, where they get it I do not know but I have used it for years with great results but that's just me everyone is different and results may vary. Good luck.
@@ericswain4177 thank you for the fast response and I agree Whole Foods is about nothing but money they’re a vitamin shoppe mile from my home I will go check it out thank you 🙏
Thanx so very much for the info rendered and the danger of prolonging the substances i think I'll go more for spirolina bcoz it's powder form although you can use both
20 years ago I created the most delicious drink with spirulina, sweetened with honey, and a touch of Himalayan salt, I can't get enough. I believe in this form that it's safe for everyone, pregnant women and 1 year olds. I believe it's because of a more diluted form. It's important to note that the nutrients in this product are immediately available to the cells, that's right, they are in the correct ionic colloidal form.
ah perfect. ive been looking for other peoples ways of taking spirulina. seems i need a high speed blender but i usually just try to throw things in a glass or just straight down the hatch and it just doesnt work with the bluegreen. i end up chewing it and have fish breath and blue teeth for a while 😬🤮
@@maltflesh 😂😂😂
What was the drink????
I like chlorella because I’ve been taking it from an early age. You easily notice the effect it has on the vascular system, nail/hair growth and skin. I also like high quality spirulina because it gives smoothies a cool blue hue and it tastes well
of course everyone likes high quality products .....
Thanks. Very informative. I choose chlorella since you say it is the best at detoxing and that is what is most important to me at this time.
Glad it was helpful!
We can't wait for your next video 🥂🥂✊🏽
Thanks friend! They take a lot of time unfortunately...
Thank you!
I was recently SUFFERING with allergies. Couldn't go out the house for fear of 'accidents '. I added Spirulina
to my daily regiment for no particular reason other than finding out how good it was for you and wallah!!! No allergies. It's been about 3 weeks and it's working! YES 😂😂😂🎉🎉
I have heavy allergies, some seasons i can't even sleep due to allergies and have been consuming spirulina for almost 10yrs -as an antioxidant- but doesn't help allergies at all
That's probably due to the copper it has which is responsible for the DAO enzyme that breaks down histamine and stops allergies.
@@jaynenyc1954you may try a modern antihistamine longterm (weeks or even months). Avoid chemicals in all forms and evade industrial food.
Allergies make you shit yourself?
Energybits is another great source of both!!
Ease in gradually if you have heavy metal toxin problems. They are both excellent for cleaning, but cleaning too fast can be overwhelming. Start with small amount gradually and drink lots of clean water.
Good!
@@SuperfoodEvolutionvery true
i am using Chlorella more than 4-5 years and i love it very much. The main benefit i notice is detox and clean my body, my blood with cholophyll because i am really easily to get allergies with chemical substances in food, water, polluted environment.
My I know which brand you are using
@@ScienceXfinite I'm using brand from Japan, Orihiro. I think you could take any brand from Japan cause they are really good in Algae Production.
@@minhkhanhnguyen8508 oh, Thank you so much
@@ScienceXfinite get the brand Sun chlorella, from japan
@@minhkhanhnguyen8508 I don't have any problem taking spirulina powder for year. But just started chlorella pills I got from brand Sun chlorella from japan, that cause me bloating and gas, when stop taking, symptoms stopped, taking again same issues, bloating and gas all day. And bathroom#2 several times a day
Annoying!!!!
Which one would be better for a leukemia patient?
It is true that we have to buy S and C from reputable, trustworthy companies.
Well, i prefer to buy Wheatgrass juice powder. Safer.
Thank you ❤
Spirulina has the most beautiful color.
i love the video really informational i just ordered some from serenity herbal lets seee
This is so cool.
Thank you, glad you liked it!
I don't take a factory-formed multi-vitamin or supplement cocktail. I toss a tablespoon of spirulina and a scoop of whole food supplement into my morning smoothie. It's delicious, nutritious, and economical. And spirulina keeps my sinuses clean! If I had to choose one over the other, I can't live without spirulina!
Good stuff!
That’s amazing and interesting. Tell me what does it do for your sinuses and what have you noticed ..
I have both of them the Chlorophyll in pill form and the Spirulina in a big bag powder form also Morgana powder form, I actually have a bunch of powder form Super food Acai powder and Plant Protein, Super Greens, Tru-Nut powder Peanut butter, Bountiful Beets, Daily Fiber, I mean I have a whole collection of different flavor of Super Food.. To eat healthy and start juicing. Their all very Good for you....
They all are toxic. Plant toxins they taste bad for a reason.
@@granddaddyofthemall6320 Why you say that is it really because it doesn't have such a wonderful taste does not mean it is toxic not everything do taste so wonderful and their are plenty of super food vitamins that is wonderful for you but don't have a pleasant taste it doesn't mean it's toxic not everything is toxic but I'm sure some stuff are just like they say garlic is not good for you because it has something in it according to Dr. SEBI even cashews and peanuts aren't good for you alot of stuff is not good for you but you eat it anyway***
My choice is CHLORELLA. Even the taste of chlorella I like more than spirulina. Also, chlorella has lots of iodine (spirulina hasn't) and b12, so nutritionally it is slightly richer than spirulina, but in this video they say differently for some reason(?). Just google and read nutritional value of chlorella and spirulina. But overall both supplements are fantastic. 👌
Same here. I Google and compare those two. Chlorella always come out slightly more nutritional in most search.
I think the problem is that you googled a combination of a few vitamins and minerals. They have different nutrients that are more present in each algae. They have different benefits. In terms of essential nutrients, one may consider spirulina to be more nutritive because it has a greater variety of minerals, fatty acids, and a high quantity of protein. So the video is not wrong to consider spirulina more nutritive. But you are also right that if vitamin b-12 is a concern for you, chlorella is a much better option. According to some, you may even avoid spirulina if you have a vitamin B-12 deficiency, like Webmd. Their thoughts are based on an old study from the 1990s. But both are generally considered safe.
Its expensive
Chlorophyll is required for IRON, plus Zinc And Copper and minerals,sea Moss Has 92 of the 102 minerals in it, and Kelp Has Iodine, I'm Thyroid Defficient and I use these products, my Dad's recently passed away from IRON Deficiency and I have only found out about the Need for the Chlorophyll and minerals, plus Zinc and copper, plus vitamin B1 B2,B6 and B12 To Build up the IRON And Restore Depleted Bone marrow, the Hospital was Giving Him Blood Transfusion s Every 3 Day's But I have found out since His Death How To Build RED Blood Cells and Blood plasma, Chlorophyll is Essential to Achieve it, The Doctors say That they have Done what they could, But I feel that The knowledge of sea moss Chlorophyll, and minerals plus Kelp, zinc and copper, vitamins B1 B2 B6 and B12 should be Common Knowledge of the Doctors , But it's Not, Thank you for your video it's Very good And Informative,plus Explained Well.
It has b12 🤦♂️... you people. 😅
Can it be mixed to help with anemia?
What did it do with sulfiur and gluhatione? 🙏🏻
The best Spirulina is fresh Raw Living Spirulina. It’s gourmet creamy smooth texture and taste is amazing. And it’s grown in Florida shipped next day to your door. Absolutely Amazing!
Thanks for sharing!
I take a teaspoon of both every morning
Hawaiian or Blue Spirulina for energy and nutrients/protein and Sun Chlorella for detoxing, purifying the blood and removing heavy metals
What's the sun chlorella?
Sun is the name of brand you're using?
Appreciate your help 🙏
@@moniryousefian8782 Yes. Sun Chlorella is a brand. You will find it online and available in most countries.
Are they to be taken continually?
@@esticanary1021 They can be and are usually safe long term daily use but like all things sometimes its good to take breaks.
Thanks. Would you say that spirolina taken in tablets form are less beneficial ?l
I DO BOTH ... ALL BASES COVERED
I use chlorella by organika 🥰
🌿Thanks
Got the them both mixed together from Amazon
I take SunFoods🦁🎀 Spirulina and Chlorella Tabs & Zokiva Moringa Powder...
I use a lot of Sunfood products and have for years.
What about Moringa Powder? Its supposed to be good for low platelets.
Can you take both of them at the same time
I take both For many years with Moringa powder.
Greatness from Mother Earth
Thank you for sharing this

That's powerful...
Moringa has most vitamins everyday
Spurlina 4 times a week
Chlorella 3 times a week
Been taking them since 2012

Is green super foods bad for people with gout?
It's great, just be aware not to mix with high oxalate foods. That's the drawback of green juicing. People use spinach which is actually NOT a superfood and extremely high in oxalates.
"Boiling vegetables also reduces their oxalate content. Research shows that boiling could remove up to 76% of oxalates, depending on the vegetable. It is also important to eat enough dietary calcium"
@@JosefK2275 probably boil away most of its nutrients at the same time.
@@JosefK2275 steaming does it too
Good TIP 👍
@@JosefK2275 Its also important to balance calcium with enough magnesium for proper absorption (for instance, more magnesium than calcium), not the reverse 🔀 as most multivitamin suppliments are mustake made.
I take both everyday
Good strategy...
@@SuperfoodEvolution , thank you
I can not get spirulina to taste good but I blend it with chocolate almond milk in the morning. I def have been feeling better since I’ve been drinking it daily. Hard to explain how .. but it does SOMETHING lol
It does!
Make your own sweet tea and add spirulina.
I buy Spirulina in tablet form. Much easier to take when out and about.
I use the Nutrex spirulina and BioOptimal chlorella. I don't trust buying any generic brands, since impurity can be an issue. A company that does testing also inspires consumer confidence, regarding metals, toxins, bacteria, etc.
Absolutely, good guidance.
Yes this is so true. I really hope that Organic company’s and all company’s for that matter are doing there very best with making sure that there are no impurities in the powders that can harms us. Please algae company’s work hard and relentlessly to ensure that consumers do not consume toxic products as we are doing our best to even consider consuming there’s superfoods to optimize our overall health and not deteriorate health !!!!! 🙏🏽
Algae gather metals. So if the feeding water is contaminated, so will be the product. (see CHEMTRAILS!!!!)
I love Spirulina❤
Take them both at same time. Health Food Stores have many reputable Companies of Bottles of products that combine these. I speak from 40 years of experience.♥️🤸🏼♂️🤾♀️🤺🌵😎
I take both
Good strategy...
Hey can you take spirulina, chlorella and moringa together?
I take all of them together in very moderate doses
I take both of them... 🙂
Yea me also ❤em
Mine has both Spirulina and Chlorella in 💊 and consume them with a meal per day
Could you just take both of these at one time? Kinda want to add these to my morning routine
Yes, some companies sell a 50/50 of each in tablet form.
What’s the Best Chlorella Brand To Buy? Please respond? The most organic to buy on Amazon?
Try Health Ranger Store.
I’ve been giving this to my step baby he’s 12 n I do notice it seems like he gains more muscle mass?I know it sounds crazy but it’s true!Lol.Also,I hv had terrible periods n I’ve noticed I don’t hv extreme fatigue n my cramps have gotten a lot better!I do feel less anxious as well.This is a great supplement n I noticed my skin doesn’t break out as bad during that time of the month.Chlorella which I hvnt taken it like I used to( I switched to spirulina recently,)I’ve noticed that chlorella gave me more energy n I felt less foggy in the head.
Totally agree. I feel like Chlorella is superior. Particularly Sun Chlorella from Japan with the pulverized cell wall. As far as Spirulina goes I think it's a great second to Chlorella and particularly effective if used simultaneously. Get only Hawaiian sourced Spirulina in order to avoid toxins.
Great to hear!
@@winnienguyen4420 thanks doll will do!😉🙏
What brand of chlorella and spirulina do you take? I really need help with reducing menstrual cramping
Sounds like successful metal detox
I hv used both on off fr yrs then I used the pendulum and asked what was best for me and it chose chorella ????
Not sure 😕
spirlina should take
Both ❤
Take both & get the benefits of both. Many companies sell pure tablets of 500mg (250mg of each)
Combined both these with Irish sea moss
Can we take it both same time like half spoon sprinula and half spoon chlorella
They actually make supplements that are 50/50
is combining them causeses diarrhea, and if consuming them separately also causes diarrhea ?
Anyone know a good source to get either one of these , theres so many online and i dont trust half the crap out there not to be contaminated or what not... any input would be great thanks
Check the description box for the best we know of.
Can they be combine in a smoothie or just in a glass of water?
Using in a smoothie is a great way to go!
Can we have both of them on a daily basis or every alternate day ?
Since it is high in Iron, should Chlorella be avoided by someone who is trying to reduce Ferritin levels in the blood ?
Which one is best for hair spirulina or Chlorella ??
I’d say spirulina it contains loads of micronutrients
my hair got so much better after consuming spirulina
My nails greatly improved with Spirulina tablets. They stopped cracking straight across and are now quite hard. They grow quickly as well.
Lol at least he made a point about not buying the cheap one
Your best bet. Mana if you will.. grown in a tank
why not take both
Your prior narrative about spirulina is saying something otherwise which makes this part confusing.
I just get both and mix them together.
Which is better for the third eye, spirulina or chlorella? I managed to open the third eye a long time ago but I can only see short images in fractions of a second.

What I know the best for the third eye is to detox the fluoride. one substance to Detox the fluoride is boron. (borax)
Am having SPIRULINA
If someone put a gun to my head I would say that I prefer Spirulina but they're both great. Couldn't disagree more about the taste. Chlorella is delicious.
Que traduscan a español
Both
Good answer!
Spirulina cyan on the stock exchange trading at $4 a share it's on the island of Hawaii the Big Island the companies
🤍 Take both. Win win!
how about taking both
Sure!
PLEASE let me know..... Would it not be beneficial to mix half a teaspoon of Chorella and Spirulina powder together into fruit juice and get the best of both worlds? Do either powders counter act each other or adversly chemically react with other items- for example, lemon juice or apple cider vinegar?
Add it to tea,sweetened with honey,add a touch of Himalayan salt.
Both together are fine usually...
The best option would be drink separately in different time, if you ask the scientists who know that each chemical components are consisted differently. Each little unique difference make the big difference within the chemical reactions within the body.
