WHYZ Organic Chlorella Powder is a raw green algae powder made from Chlorella vulgaris, most often stirred into water, juice, or blended drinks. It is available in a 1 ounce size and a 1.37 pound size, arrives as a fine, unflavored powder that disperses easily in liquid, and is processed so the outer cell wall of the algae is broken. The powder is organic, non-GMO, and vegan, with no fillers or added ingredients beyond the chlorella itself.
- Single ingredient: organic Chlorella vulgaris powder
- Two sizes: 1 ounce and 1.37 pound
- Broken cell wall, raw, unflavored
The smaller 1 ounce size suits anyone trying chlorella for the first time or wanting to see how the flavour works in their usual drinks, while the 1.37 pound size fits people already mixing green powders regularly and buying in bulk. Reach for it when adding a plant-based powder to smoothies, juices, or recipes at home.
When using this powder for the first time, start with a small amount stirred into a strongly flavored juice such as orange or pineapple, since the taste of chlorella is earthy and distinctly green. As you get comfortable with it, blending it into smoothies with fruit or nut butter tends to mask the flavor more effectively than stirring it into plain water. A fine powder like this one can also be whisked into salad dressings or mixed into energy balls and similar no-bake recipes if you prefer not to drink it.
Store the powder in a cool, dry place away from direct light, and reseal the packaging tightly after each use to prevent moisture from clumping the powder. The 1.37 pound size makes sense if you are already committed to using it regularly, but it does mean going through it before moisture or time affects the quality, so consider your pace of use before buying the larger format. When comparing chlorella powders from different brands, the broken cell wall processing noted here is worth looking for specifically, as whole-cell versions are harder for the body to work with mechanically during digestion.
