Slowing cancer with chlorella supplements

Using the chlorella supplement will complement the results of a cancer treatment in more ways than one.

There is a lot to be said about supplements and alternative medicines these days. For some ailments, I think that natural remedies might be more helpful than what is prescribed. Sometimes prescriptions can be too potent and may even cause more side affects than a natural cremes or capsules. And in other cases, potency is required in order to treat an illness.

Cancer is an illness that demands a powerful drug to decelerate the disease. Natural or prescribed remedies alone may not be able to cure or slow the illness down. However, if the doctor prescribed medicines and natural supplements were used together, there might be a better result.

The best natural supplement known for slowing down cancer is, Chlorella. It is a single-celled fresh water green algae. It's configuration is essential to the condensed and assorted supply of vitamins, minerals, protein and other nutrients. Chlorella contains amino acids, enzymes (that break down foods for digestion), vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates. It also contains RNA and DNA (the building blocks of life).

What does Chlorella do?

Chlorella improves fatigue associated with chemotherapy. In chemotherapy, "anti-cancer" drugs are given to destroy cancer cells. However, the "bad cells" aren't the only ones killed. Normal, healthy cells grow and die in a controlled way with this treatment. White blood cells are killed. Chlorella helps the body replace the white blood cells that are lost.

T-Cells and B-Cells in the body are important in fighting against viruses and cancer. Microphages are large cells that enclose and dissolve foreign substances in the body. They are effective in battling against cancer, foreign proteins and chemicals. There is a limit to the amount of cells in the body that help remove harmful substances in the blood. Using other agents (such as chlorella) to accelerate the production and activity of microphage is a good step in combatting cancer. Chlorella builds the amount of T-Cells and B-Cells in your body.

Chlorella can be used to detoxify the systems of the body. It forms complexes with heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury, inactivating them in the intestines. Chlorella can also detoxify pesticides, hydrocarbons, and radioactive substances. In the bowels, chlorella kills bacteria that cause gas and odors.

Chlorella also lowers blood pressure, reduces cholesterol and boosts hemoglobin levels. It is known to have a nutritional and detoxifying component. Chlorella aids in the repair of bodily organs and tissues that have been injured or otherwise damaged.

People who have cancer can take up to as much as 30 grams of chlorella per day. A patient with bone cancer showed great improvement using 20 grams per day of chlorella for six months. It is impossible to give a general dosage. A physician or certified nutritionist should be monitoring the patient and administering a specific dose and application of chlorella, individually.

Chlorella might be a great help to your fight against cancer but I cannot stress enough how important it is to always check with your doctor before taking any addition medication.
