Sorry for not having the time to blog. This post is a reminder for all of us about an essential nutrient that we really need, for without it, our bodies gradually break down and deteriorate. That nutrient is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is what makes the plants green. It is a green pigment in plants whose purpose is to help absorb the rays from the sun, for the plant.
I think nowadays, our diets are largely deficient in chlorophyll. Days can go by without us taking in chlorophyll, and this is not supposed to happen. Chlorophyll deficiency symptoms include increased susceptibility to diseases, and poor health of the cells. It seems that chlorophyll is needed to help cells metabolize themselves, and rejuvenate themselves too.
Chlorophyll can be obtained from alfalfa leaves, spirulina, or chlorella. All these sources are VERY high in chlorophyll and other nutrients as well. Besides them, you might have correctly guessed that dark green, leafy vegetables are very good sources of chlorophyll as well.
If you cannot obtain chlorophyll easily, you should be getting some dark green leafy vegetables instead. Or if all else fails, try taking a few chlorophyll tablets during the day. Chlorophyll is one of those nutrients that should be replenished every day, but thank God, it is quite widely available in most pharmacies. Taking some of those green stuff helps improve our overall immune system, and it is also assists in absorption of some minerals and amino acids. I’ve heard that chlorophyll also helps the body, or more specifically the liver, to get rid of toxins.
