Clean Chlorella, confirming it is the cleanest chlorella superfood on the planet

(NaturalNews) As Natural News readers know, we recently announced the availability of Clean Chlorella and explained how it was cleanest chlorella on the planet. Today I'm happy to share with you the actual lab test results which have now been repeated across multiple production batches. These results show the astonishing cleanliness of Clean Chlorella.

Why does this matter? Most chlorella is contaminated with trace levels of lead, arsenic, aluminum or cadmium. Our previous round of lab tests showed that chlorella from China was the most polluted, and that mirrors the truth about many other foods from China which are also heavily polluted with lead, arsenic, cadmium, etc.

We also showed that certified organic chlorella is no cleaner than non-organic chlorella when it comes to heavy metals. That's because the USDA organic seal does not, in any way, regulate the level of heavy metals present in foods. A food produced in China (or anywhere else) can be USDA certified organic and still contain alarmingly high levels of mercury and other heavy metals.

That's why we spent a considerable amount of time -- maybe a year or so -- searching for the cleanest chlorella on the planet. We found two sources that were the cleanest. One was from South Korea and the other from Taiwan. In our lab tests, chlorella from China was the most polluted, and chlorella from Japan was somewhere in the middle. Taiwan produced the cleanest organic chlorella, and South Korea produced the cleanest conventional chlorella.

Lab test results

Here are the lab tests from our Clean Chlorella:

Sensitivity: All tests have a detection limit of 0.01 ppm (parts per million). This is equivalent to 10 parts per billion or 10 ppb. (For a refresher, one-billionth of something is a thousand times smaller than one-millionth of something. So, in other words, 1000ppb = 1ppm)

Precision: This ICP-MS system has a precision level of low ppt (parts per trillion) to high ppt. There is some variation on actual numbers depending on the metal.

These tests were conducted in an ICP-MS system: Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry. Digestion was by high pressure microwave digestion running at 30 bar. Calibration was run against standard QC matrices.

ICP-MS is orders of magnitude more precise than the older lab equipment often used by food companies to test for contaminants. The range of detection on this ICP-MS is nine orders of magnitude! (If you're not sure what that means, just trust me that it's really impressive.)

Laboratory results on Natural News Clean Chlorella:

Lead (Pb) None detected, in other words < 0.01 ppm
Arsenic (As) None detected, in other words < 0.01 ppm
Cadmium (Cd) None detected, in other words < 0.01 ppm
Mercury (Hg) None detected, in other words < 0.01 ppm
Aluminum (Al) 0.697 ppm, in other words < 1 ppm

These results are astonishing. There is nothing cleaner in the world of superfoods. In fact, these are the lowest levels we've seen in ANY superfood, including spirulina, blueberries, seaweed and other items.

We invite anyone in the industry to test our chlorella and reproduce these results for yourself. If you do pursue this, make sure you know what you are doing in terms of handling samples, because merely touching the sample vessels can contaminate them with detectable levels (ppb) of metals that are present on your skin. In fact, if you run these tests in a lab that has aluminum edging of the ceiling tiles, microscopic flecks of aluminum can fall from the ceiling directly into the sample vessels, producing a false aluminum reading.

Typical chlorella products test at much higher levels

In our previous tests, here are the levels of contamination we found in chlorella from China

• Aluminum: 29 ppm
• Arsenic: 0.89 ppm
• Cadmium: 0.17 ppm
• Lead: 0.27 ppm
• Mercury 0.00 ppm

Aluminum is the most common of these metals in chlorella. Aluminum is very difficult to avoid because it is common in soils plus it falls out of the sky (chemtrails). This is why any chlorella grown in outdoor pools will be contaminated with some level of aluminum.

Average Aluminum contamination of chlorella by country of origin

• China = 29 ppm
• Japan = 16 ppm
• Taiwan = 7.6 ppm
• Korea = 0 ppm*
