A landmark study shows dangerous dioxins are passed
directly from mother to baby via breast milk, but can be significantly
reduced by Chlorella pyrenoidosa.
The study, published in the Journal of Medicinal Food, analyzed dioxin
levels in breast milk from 35 pregnant women in Japan. Eighteen of the
35 women took Chlorella pyrenoidosa supplements. The study showed toxic
levels were significantly lower in the breast milk of the women taking
Chlorella than in the control group.
Dioxins may be linked to developmental problems such as attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other learning disabilities in school-aged
children. The fact that high concentrations of dioxins are in breast milk
raised concerns about potential disorders in nursing infants and prompted
the study.
Chlorella pyrenoidosa binds itself to harmful toxins in the body and, with
the help of fiber, removes toxins from the system. It contains more protein
and chlorophyll (potent antioxidants) than other plants; is high in
vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and nucleic acids; and, the protein in
pyrenoidosa includes all the essential amino acids.
