Ingredients explained
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in energy metabolism and red blood cell formation, and supports normal nervous system function.
Caution: High intakes may mask underlying dietary imbalances; those with specific dietary restrictions should confirm their total B12 sources.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D supports calcium absorption in the gut and helps regulate calcium and phosphate balance for healthy bones and muscles.
Caution: Best taken with a meal containing fat for absorption; individuals with high calcium intake should be mindful of total vitamin D from all sources.
Iron
Iron is a component of haemoglobin that helps transport oxygen in the blood and supports cellular energy production.
Caution: Can cause stomach upset for some; keep away from children due to the risk associated with accidental ingestion.
Lutein
Lutein is a carotenoid that accumulates in the retina and may help filter blue light and support antioxidant protection in eye tissues.
Caution: Take with food containing fat to aid absorption; those using multiple carotenoid supplements should avoid excessive combined intake.
Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll functions as a plant pigment with antioxidant activity that may help neutralise reactive oxygen species.
Caution: May cause green stools or temporary digestive changes; reduce dose if gastrointestinal discomfort occurs.
How they work together
Chlorella provides vitamin B12 and iron for energy-related roles, while vitamin D supports mineral balance and musculoskeletal health. Lutein concentrates in eye tissues and chlorophyll offers antioxidant activity, adding broader nutritional coverage from the same botanical source.
Safety and tips
Who should be cautious: People with allergies to sunflower or soy lecithin may wish to be cautious. Those with iron overload conditions or on thyroid medications may need to separate dosing, as iron in chlorella may affect absorption. If you have sensitive digestion, start with a smaller amount and increase gradually.
