It is thanks to them that our atmosphere became breathable for the living beings that we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Microalgae are a natural and essential source of oxygen production:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6 CO2 + 6 H2O \u2192 C6H12O6 + 6 O2 \u2191<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The smallest algae or phytoplankton represent today a reserve and a resource of life essential to our planet.

Since then, Chlorella has been the subject of <strong>numerous studies<\/strong> that have resulted in a large number of scientific and medical publications. It is still a source of studies that should reveal some of its secrets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.com\/blog\/chlorella-composition-detailed\/\">composition<\/a> makes it a food with excellent nutritional qualities. It contains about<strong> 50% protein<\/strong> and is rich in polyunsaturated fats, minerals, fiber, vitamins and chlorophyll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No risk of overdosing has ever been mentioned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chlorella is a freshwater microalgae There are about thirty species of Chlorella in nature.
