I did a provoked heavy metals test last week and I still don't feel good. Tried to contact my LLND, but I haven't heard anything. I've been thinking about taking chlorella. I've done a little research about it, but still have a few questions.

Which form would be better?

Is it constipating like activated charcoal?

Just need something that can get me through until I have the results from the heavy metals test. Which should be in about a month.

Sorry you're not feeling well, sayyadina! It's time you caught a break!!!

Broken cell wall chlorella is supposedly the best form.

And, I'd be sure to go with organic since much chlorella comes from polluted China.

I don't think it's constipating - it wasn't/isn't for me (I take it sporadically)

I used chlorella, but I used cilantro along with it to help any metals that were released move on out. At least it was my understanding. Here is a good thread on the subject:

Here's some info about cilantro and chlorella as they relate to heavy metal removal:

Thanks for the info!

So I guess just taking cilantro tincture by itself isn't enough. I have managed to get up to taking ~30 drops twice a day.

Ironically, I was doing pretty well...until I did this heavy metal test.

My LLND recommended BioPure as a source for chlorella, and I think I'm going to go with that. I'm just not sure if I should go with the pyrenoidosa variety or the vulgaris variety. Any thoughts?

I got my chlorella vulgaris yesterday and am taking 1 3x a day. Definitely having diarrhea from it, but nothing bad. Generally feeling better.

Between that, being able to hydrate again and my first detox bath in months, I feel pretty good. And I'm now kinda in love with mint tea.
