Chlorella algae’s impressive nutritional profile has led some to call it a “super food.”. Chlorella contains many nutrients, including minerals and vitamins, antioxidants and Omega 3 :

- Protein: Chlorella is 50–60% protein. What’s more, it’s a complete protein source, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids

- Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin)

- Iron and vitamin C (Ascorbic acid): Chlorella can be a good source of iron. Depending on the supplement, it may provide anywhere from 6–40% of your daily need. It’s also an excellent source of vitamin C, which helps you absorb iron

- Other antioxidants

- Other minerals and vitamins: Chlorella provides small amounts of magnesium, zinc, copper, potassium, calcium, folic acid (Vitamin B9) and other vitamins group B

- Omega 3: As with other algae, chlorella contains some omega 3. Just 3 grams of chlorella delivers 100 mg of omega 3
