So How Does It Taste Then?
Chlorella is a green algae, so on its own it doesn’t taste…well…sweet!
Organic Burst Chlorella is not bitter at all and it doesn’t have the musty smell of an old pharmacy, but it does taste very green, like green veggie juice.
However, if you previously tried store-bought chlorella (and not ours) you’re probably thinking: “well, this cannot be true” because your previous experience of taking chlorella might have been rather traumatic.
Let’s find out why when taking our chlorella you’ll be just fine!
CHLORELLA’S TASTE DEPENDS ON HOW IT’S GROWN
So if you’ve taken other chlorella before you’ll be surprised when taking ours! …There is no unpleasant smell or taste at all… In fact we hear almost daily from you that when you take our chlorella you can’t believe how fresh and pure it tastes!
Why Is Organic Burst Chlorella So Different?
Because chlorella needs to be grown in very pure water and due to its ability to absorb all the toxins from its environment - if the growing conditions are not of a high quality standard chlorella is likely to have an awful fishy taste and smell.
The smell and taste of poorly sourced chlorella would be the least of your worriers though. If the growing conditions are not of the highest standards the chlorella may easily be contaminated with algal toxins, high bacterial count, mould and heavy metals (that will then reside in various tissues of your body and may lead to serious health problems).
It’s an expensive and labour intensive process to produce high quality Chlorella, that’s why in reality it’s very hard to find a clean chlorella product.
When searching for the best chlorella farm we lab tested and blind tasted many (many!) samples of the “best chlorella” from various locations around the world, and only one of them was by far superior!
Why is it so superior?
- Because Organic Burst Chlorella is grown in crystal clear underground mineral water (not surface water) - this mineral water is considered by many experts to be “live” water as it’s rich in minerals and is not filtered, distilled or processed in any way.
- It’s grow in very pure air - surrounded by a dense rainforests (home to indigenous tribes) and absolutely no industrial production.
- Samples from the ponds are taken throughout the day and tested for purity in the in-house lab. It is then also tested after washing, drying and then once again when milling and tableting. Every harvest is tested this way for the purest and most powerful chlorella.
- In addition to that it’s also 2x more digestible - our chlorella undergoes a patented process to crack the tough cell wall (without any oxidation unlike in the common mechanical processes of cracking cell walls).
So, now that you know why the taste is so much better than expected, let’s move onto how you can take your chlorella during the day.
Tip: you can take your chlorella at any time of the day that suits you and combine it with any other Bursts. Our “How To Take” section of the Chlorella page gives you more tips to optimise the times based on your goals.
