When dried; it is about 45% protein, 20% fat, 20% carbohydrate, 5% fiber, and abundant in minerals and vitamins and satisfies all of the requirements of a healthy and balanced fish diet as established by the National Academy of Sciences. It is the highest-known source of chlorophyll. While these are all beneficial, the greatest value of chlorella lies in a fascinating ingredient called Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF). CGF is a water soluble nucleotide-peptide complex found only in chlorella. It is responsible for the rapid rate of growth of the alga. Experiments with microorganisms and animals have shown that CGF promotes faster than normal growth without adverse side effects by naturally catalyzing the DNA to RNA to protein conversion. It stimulates tissue repair and protects cells against some toxic by-products of rapid growth. The process used in preparing Seachem chlorella products has been specially designed to maximize the CGF content retained in the final product. The effects of CFG are only observed in algae whose cell walls have been perforated, as the wall is composed of material that cannot be readily digested. The Seachem protocol breaks open the cell wall, allowing the cell contents to be fully available for digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes: 15, 30 g, 50 g, 100 g, 500 g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seachem","offers":[{"title":"NutriDiet Tropical Flakes w\/Probiotics 15g\/0.5oz - MAP Price $3.56","offer_id":56594869846319,"sku":"1081","price":1.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"NutriDiet Tropical Flakes w\/Probiotics 30g\/1.0oz. - MAP Price $4.52","offer_id":56594869879087,"sku":"1082","price":2.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"NutriDiet Tropical Flakes w\/Probiotics 50g\/1.8oz - MAP Price $7.45","offer_id":56594869911855,"sku":"1083","price":3.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"NutriDiet Tropical Flakes w\/Probiotics 100g\/3.5oz - MAP Price $12.62","offer_id":56594869944623,"sku":"1084","price":6.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"NutriDiet Tropical Flakes w\/Probiotics 500g\/1.1lbs - MAP Price $50.51","offer_id":56594869977391,"sku":"1085","price":27.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/9322\/6031\/files\/nutridiet-tropical.jpg?v=1775950781"},{"product_id":"purigen","title":"Purigen","description":"\u003cul class=\"list list-icons list-icons-style-3 list-icons\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighest organic removal capacity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePossesses enhanced capacity owing to its vast surface area; both spherical and macroreticular\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelps control ammonia\/nitrite\/nitrate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColor changes as it exhausts; easily regenerated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePurigen® is a premium synthetic adsorbent that is unlike any other filtration product.
