Every parent wants their children to be healthy . . . but making that happen can be a challenge.
With all the sweet temptations on one side . . . and children's finicky taste buds on the other, it's hard to get your kids to eat the food their body needs to grow.
But supplements, on the other hand, can also make you a little nervous. Many supplements that are fine for adult bodies can pose problems for children.
That's why chlorella is such a godsend to parents.
I started giving chlorella to my children when they were 8-months old. It makes a great alternative to sugar-y children's vitamins. Being a whole food and completely natural, in my opinion, chlorella is the best nutritional product that I give my children on a regular basis.
This super green food can't replace an overall approach to healthy eating. But with its dense nutritional profile of protein, vitamin C, B vitamins, beta-carotene, iron, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, chlorophyll and nucleic acids, chlorella adds an outstanding nutritional punch to your children's diet.
I also give my children chlorella as a way to teach them good health choices. As a medical doctor who specializes in nutrition, one of the most important things I can do for my children is to get them in the habit of choosing nutritious foods and whole food supplements. That is why my kids watch me take chlorella every day.
And sure enough – it works. They want to take it too!
Here are a couple exceptional ways chlorella helps your kids stay healthy:
Keep Your Kids' Gums And Teeth Healthy With Chlorella
While nothing can substitute for regular brushing and flossing, Chlorella can help transform dreaded dental visits to moments of pride by helping your children keep their teeth healthy and strong.
Chlorella has more of the green plant pigment, chlorophyll, than any other plant. And chlorophyll seems to be a dentists' best friend . . .
In a study at the Nebraskan orphanage, Boy's Town, 589 boys took part in a "tooth brushing experiment". One group of boys used regular toothpaste dyed green with food coloring while the other group brushed with toothpaste spiked with chlorophyll.
The group brushing with chlorophyll had 58-70% improvement in dental health. This contrasts dramatically with the 28% improvement experienced by the non-chlorophyll group.[1]
Keep Your Kids' Immune System Strong With Chlorella
Kids are magnets for microbes. However, by supporting immune health, chlorella can help your children contend with these tiny trespassers.
Clinical trials involving both sailors taking on stormy seas and patients with hampered immune systems have found chlorella can make a difference when it comes to staying healthy.[2] Supplementing with chlorella seems to increase white blood cell count to stay within normal levels and improve immune responsiveness.[3]
On the flipside, chlorella not only supports immune system responsiveness, it also seems to help keep your immune system response balanced.
In a study conducted in Japan, taking 3-5 grams of chlorella daily helped children enjoy clear skin as well as healthy comfortable breathing despite previous challenges to keeping their immune response balanced. Chlorella intake also helped these children eat food that previously had caused digestive discomfort.[4]
While most of the research on children using chlorella underscores its safety, there is one cautionary note. One study found immunoglobulin E specific to chlorella in children with mold allergies. Immunoglobulin E is an immune protein associated with allergic reactions.[5]
While you might want to start chlorella slowly with your child if he or she has allergies to mold, overall, parent experience and research shows that children can take chlorella regularly without any ill effects. Only good ones.
With Chlorella's Nutrition, Your Kids Will Grow Strong And Healthy!
The solution to our children's growing nutritional deficit can't be solved with one green superfood like chlorella. I wish it were that easy! Instead, it takes a whole commitment to changing schedules and habits. Nonetheless, chlorella is a part of the solution to helping us raise healthy kids. It provides an easy, surprisingly tasty, form of insurance that can make it easier for families to turn things around.
Our children depend on us to give them a good start on this journey we call life. And while we try as parents to give them what they need, it isn't easy.
Our frenetic lifestyle easily swallows our time, attention and best intentions. Before you know it, your kids aren't getting the essentials the work of growing requires.
Chlorella gives us busy parents - and our kids - a powerful way to give our bodies the important nourishment it needs.
