Photosynthesizing its energy from the sun, chlorella is a powerhouse of nutrients. It is a natural source of vegetarian protein—about 60 percent—a very high level for a plant. Due to this high protein concentration and chlorella’s naturally rapid growth rate, after World War II, chlorella was investigated as a possible food source. Chlorella is rich in amino acids, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals—including B-vitamins, vitamins A and D, iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc. This unique combination of nutrients within chlorella is a primary reason why scientists around the world are actively researching\* medicinal uses for this aquatic-based superfood.

Although mercury (Hg) is a naturally occurring element—found in the air, water, and soil—exposure to it, even in small amounts, causes serious health problems for adults and children. Mercury has toxic effects on the nervous, digestive, and immune systems as well as on the lungs, kidneys, skin, and eyes. It is a threat to the healthy development of a fetus and young child.

Modern living exposes all of us to an unprecedented number of chemicals on a daily basis. This includes environmental toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, industrial compounds and chemical byproducts, medications, cosmetic additives, inorganic chemicals, etc. These chemical substances which are foreign to the biological system are referred to as “xenobiotics.” The good news is that the body was designed to detoxify and excrete xenobiotics. The bad news is our bodies may not always be equipped to handle the volume of modern, environmental pollutants and toxic substances. This problem may be exacerbated by the fact that the refining of many of our foodstuffs has caused them to provide considerably less of the nutrients that are essential to the detoxification process.1 2 [Read More](https://blog.primohealth.com/bid/186850/Supplements-Good-for-Detox) 0 Comments ## [Common Triggers of Depression](https://blog.primohealth.com/bid/186587/Common-Triggers-of-Depression) ![Picture of Daniel Sanelli, M.Sc.](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/18cc72d6b6902b69f00313c2a3004f25) [Daniel Sanelli, M.Sc.](https://blog.primohealth.com/author/daniel-sanelli-m-sc) Nov 14, 2014 1:01:00 PM ![Common Triggers of Depression](https://blog.primohealth.com/hs-fs/file-2165083064-png/images/handoverthroat-resized-600.png) [micronutrients](https://blog.primohealth.com/topic/micronutrients) [endocrine health](https://blog.primohealth.com/topic/endocrine-health) [detoxification](https://blog.primohealth.com/topic/detoxification) [emotional health](https://blog.primohealth.com/topic/emotional-health) *Depression: Functional Medicine Approach* By Ronald Grisanti, DC, DABCO, DACBN, MS Depression is considered the most dreaded condition of mankind. What makes depression so awful is the sad fact that it is the one disease devoid of hope in the minds of many who suffer with this global epidemic. Unlike debilitating diseases like arthritis, which shows it's ugly face by causing pain, depression is a silent enemy afflicting millions every year. My goal in this article is to prepare and educate you on a few of the common triggers of depression. These are not original thoughts on the subject of depression but are in fact documented peer-reviewed research proving the existence of a world of information kept under "lock and key" contributing to a sea of suffering and mental anguish.
